Well, these are interesting… Midjourney 6 is still in Alpha phase, and it’s very much a mixed bag at this point. This was a very basic prompt asking for Blanche from the play without me giving any descriptions whatsoever and Midjourney clearly knows who she is and the mood of the play. I’ve heard other people mention that this version tends to give similar looking people in the results and this is really true here, I think, because several of these look like they could be the same actress in different scenes whilst older versions of Midjourney would really give wildly different results from the same prompt.
Another interesting thing about the Alpha is that the old “problem with hands” is back, it is really struggling to not mix up fingers or shapes and is trying to hide hands most of the time. I understand that they are working on this and the next version in a week or two will bring it back up at least to the level of version 5.3 which still had issues, but was much better.
Overall though, I think these are pretty interesting. The lighting is really fantastic and moody, the colours look right for the period and the clothes are right. It’s amazing how far AI has come in just over a year or so.
What do you think?
