I decided to create engaging characters using AI generative art. Midjourney has become my favorite tool for bringing the ideas in my head to the digital canvas.
By carefully crafting prompts, I can describe a character down to details like hair color, facial features, clothing, and accessories. The AI art isn’t perfect, but provides a strong starting point for finalizing illustrations.
Experimenting with Midjourney has opened up new possibilities for visualizing and sharing my stories. My characters feel more real and engaging through this AI-assisted creative process. I can’t wait to finish creating my characters so I can move onto the writing and publishing. My children have been helping me as this is their story to tell. They get excited when it’s time to write and create the stories.
Check out some of the characters I’ve created. They’re modeled off of prompts I created based on the looks of my family and myself.
