Quick Way to Make Consistent Characters in Midjourney v6

Want to create the same character in different scenes with Midjourney version six? It's easier now than you think. A new feature lets you keep your character looking the same across many images. This guide shows you how in just a few steps.

The Simple Process for Character Consistency

Midjourney's latest update makes keeping your characters consistent very fast. You don't need complex methods anymore. Just follow these steps.

Step 1: Get Your Character Image Link

First, you need a picture of the character you want to use. Upload your image to Discord, directly into your chat with the Midjourney bot. Make sure you press Enter after dropping the image so it fully uploads.

Once the image is uploaded and visible in the chat, right-click on it. Find and click the "Copy Link" option. Keep this link ready.

Step 2: Use the Imagine Command

Now, start your prompt as usual. Type

`/imagine`

Follow this with your description of what you want the character to be doing or where you want them to be. For example, you might type "redhead lady reading a book".

Step 3: Add the Character Reference (–cref)

After your text prompt, add a space. Then type two hyphens, followed by "cref". Type another space. Now, paste the image link you copied earlier. This tells Midjourney which character's face and features to use as a reference.

Step 4: Control Character Appearance (–cw)

This is where you decide if the character should wear the same clothes from the reference image or try new outfits. After the character reference link, add a space, two hyphens, and "cw".

• For the character to keep the same clothes and style as the reference image, type

• `--cw 100`

• For Midjourney to focus only on the face and allow for changes in clothing and style, type

• `--cw 0`

• You can also use values between 0 and 100 (like 50) for a mix of consistency and variation.

Press Enter and let Midjourney create your images.

Seeing the Results

When your images are ready, you'll see that Midjourney has created new pictures featuring your character. The face should look very much like your reference image, even in different situations or styles. The `--cw` setting will determine how much the clothing matches the original.

Often, several of the resulting images will capture the character's look extremely well.

Make Your Midjourney Workflow Easier

Creating consistent characters is a big step. But managing many images and prompts can still take time. If you find yourself repeating tasks or wishing for a smoother process, consider automating parts of your workflow.

A tool designed for Midjourney automation can help you generate variations, manage prompts, and organize your creations much faster. Less manual work means more time for creative experiments.

Streamline Your Creative Process

Using Midjourney effectively often involves trying many prompts and variations. Automating tasks like creating grids, generating variations, or upscaling can save significant time. This lets you focus more on the creative ideas rather than the repetitive steps.

Conclusion

Using the `--cref` and `--cw` parameters in Midjourney version 6 makes creating consistent characters simple and fast. Just get your image link, add the parameters to your prompt, and control the clothing style with the `--cw` value. This new feature is a game-changer for storytellers and artists.
