Love midjourney for creative and artistic work, this isn't a criticism post. More of a "right tool for the job" question.
My use case: photorealistic images and videos of the same person across dozens of outputs in different settings and outfits. Not artistic interpretation but actual "this could be a photograph" level realism with consistent facial features and body type between every generation.
V6.1 improved realism a lot but character references still produce noticeable variation between generations, especially in close-ups. For creative work that variation is a feature. For building a consistent content library it breaks things.
I'm basically splitting my workflow now, mj for mood boards and concept work where variation doesn't matter, and foxy ai for production sets where identity needs to be locked as I find it more realistic Fundamentally different approach, more consistent for this specific use case, but you sacrifice some creative flexibility.
Anyone else splitting tools like this or has someone found a mj-native solution I'm missing?
