Best Midjourney Consistency Tips & Updates
Gain the skills & confidence to use AI effectively and enhance creative work.
The only Midjourney parameters you need to care about for consistency:
Character Reference (--cref URL): To achieve character consistency
Character Weights (--cw 0-100): To modify character reference 'strength' from 100 to 0
Style Reference (--sref URL): To achieve style consistency
Style Weights (--sw 0-1000): To modify style reference 'strength' from 1000 to 0
By combining these four parameters, you can create a wide range of variations while maintaining a high level of consistency.
How to use Character Reference (--cref)
1. ADD --cref URL
after your prompt with a URL to an image of a character
2. USE --cw
to modify reference 'strength' from 100 to 0
3. Strength 100 (--cw 100)
Default: MJ focuses on the face, hair, and clothes
4. Strength 0 (--cw 0)
MJ focuses on the face (good for changing outfits / hair etc)
💡My prompt:
a man posing in [environment setting] wearing a [outfit] --cref URL --cw [0-100] --v 6.0
This also works for product concept images
How to use Style References (--sref)
- After your prompt type --sref along with a URL to an image --sref urlA
- Midjourney will look at the image URL as a 'style references' and try to make something that 'matches' its style or aesthetic
- This works for both V6 and Niji V6 (it does not work with V5 etc)
Advanced Settings
- Use multiple urls to multiple images like this --sref urlA urlB urlC
- Set relative weights of styles like this --sref urlA::2 urlB::3 urlC::5
- Set the total strength of the stylization via --sw 100 (100 is default, 0 is off, 1000 is maximum)
This is so much more powerful than style tuner and gives you finer control over the final image generation style.
