Midjourney Character Reference --cref Recipe

After writing your prompt, add --cref followed by a URL to the character image. Use character weight or --cw to control character match strength: - Default value is 100: makes Midjourney match the face, hair, and clothing. - Value 0: makes the model focus only on the face, useful when you want to change clothing or hairstyle. Tips: - Works best with characters taken from Midjourney images. - Not designed for real people/photos (it's recommended to distort them). - Accuracy is limited; it cannot copy fine details like wrinkles, moles, or shirt logos. - Cref works with both Niji and regular Midjourney models. - You can use more than one URL to combine info or characters from multiple images: --cref (URL1) (URL2) On the web alpha: drag or paste an image into the image bar, you'll see 3 options: Image Prompt, style reference, character reference. Click the character reference to use the image in more than one category. Example comparison: to get the same character in different styles, use a simple prompt and add: cartoon, 3D, photorealistic.
