If you need good vector illustrations for your website or presentation, AIGC tools like Midjourney can save you time and money.

This tutorial will show you how to use Midjourney to generate high-quality vector illustrations. By using the Prompt formula provided in the article, you will be able to get images that meet your needs.

1. Generate high-quality vector illustrations, writing a good prompt is the key

Take the following Prompt formula as an example:

png white background, [subject], in the style of animated illustrations, [environment], full body, text-based --style raw

(png white background, [theme], animation illustration style, [environment], full body, text-based --style raw)

This Prompt formula includes 2 important elements:

  • Element 1: Theme

Specify the theme you want the generated illustration to be.

Also, describe what parts of the picture are interesting and dynamic.

For example:

  1. A woman listening to music

  2. A man is giving a speech

  3. A woman sitting at a desk with a puppy

  • Element 2: Environment

Adding situational location information will allow the midway to capture the appropriate mood and atmosphere.

Some good environments include:

  1. Study Place

  2. Office atmosphere

  3. The Great Outdoors

Now, if you refine the environment and change the theme, you will create a set of pictures with the same theme.

It’s important to keep your image theme consistent to ensure your website, infographic, or presentation has a unified look.

2. Control the level of detail in the image

Once the image is generated, you can control the details by changing the "stylize" value.

The default value of stylize is 100.

To make a less detailed, flatter image, use a lower stylize value, such as 0.

So the new Prompt formula looks like this:

png white background, [subject], in the style of animated illustrations, [location], full body, text-based --style raw --stylize 0

To make the image more detailed, use a higher stylize value, such as 250:

png white background, [subject], in the style of animated illustrations, [location], full body, text-based --style raw --stylize 250 Increasing the stylize value makes the vector appear more detailed and artistic.

The maximum value of stylize is 1000.

By using this setting, you can control the style of the image to suit the needs of your project.

3. Create technology-related vector illustrations

Are you working on a web project or need to prepare a presentation for a tech company?

You’ll love this Prompt formula:

png white background, [subject], in the style of big tech illustrations, [environment], full body, text-based --style raw

The key element of this prompt is “Big Tech Company Illustration”. It gives your image the vibe of a big tech company.

The term "big tech" tells Midjourney to generate:

  • A lot of people

  • Advanced Charts and Gadgets

  • Blue Palette

Take a look at the picture below to see what I mean.

4. Generate a whole set of illustrations on the same theme at one time

Want to make multiple vector-style illustrations with the same theme and color scheme? Use this Prompt formula:

4 png images, vector illustration pack, knolling style, no border, png white background, [subject], in the style of animated illustrations, [environment], full body --style raw --stylize 50

Here are the key elements of this prompt:

  • Element 1: 4 png images. Theoretically, you can create as many images as you want. But too many is not recommended, as it will reduce the image quality.

  • Element 2. Vector illustration pack. This tells Midjourney that you want a group of similar images.

  • Element 3. Knolling style

Sometimes the build may deviate from your instructions midway. Adding this feature makes Prompt more stable.

With this prompt, you can generate a set of images at once.

This will give you pictures with a consistent theme and color scheme.

The following example generates:
