- 📊 Perform a tuning test with 16 style directions, sticking to the default settings initially.
- 👁️ Evaluate the generated styles and select the one that closely matches your vision, then copy the entire prompt including the image links and style code.
- 🔄 Experiment with different stylized values (S400 and S40 in the example) to refine the look until the desired outcome is achieved.
- 🔧 Adjust settings to turn on 'remix mode' and 'high variation mode' to ensure the generated art follows the prompt more closely.
- 🗑️ Remove the image prompts and style code from the remix box to prevent them from influencing the generation of new subjects.
- 🏷️ Include specific subjects and descriptive words in the prompt for more accurate and varied results, such as 'full body wide-angle lens action pose'.
- 🔄 Continuously remix the image that closely matches your desired style to create a series of art pieces with a consistent look.
