Getting Started with Midjourney’s Retexture Tool
To begin your journey with the Midjourney Retexture tool, you first need to access the “Edit” panel. Simply click on the “Edit” button on the left side of your screen. This will take you to the new interface where you can start transforming your images.
Once you’re in the Edit panel, you’ll see options for editing your images. The Retexture tool is specifically designed to allow users to upload their own images and apply different textures and styles without losing the original structure of the image. The keyword here is structure. This is awesome for anyone looking to create absolutely crazy visual transformations of anything under the sun.
How to Use the Retexture Tool
Using the Retexture tool is straightforward. After uploading your image, you can select the “Retexture” tab and begin experimenting with different prompts.
The prompts can significantly alter the appearance of your image, enabling you to reimagine anything. All of the prompt techniques you know and are used to are compatible with retexturing. This includes style references, image references, character references, the weird parameter, and pretty much anything you can throw at it. Go crazy.
