Note: This article pays homage to a Midjourney artist whose work I respect deeply. I have done some copying and screen capturing of his works directly from Facebook to display sample here. The creator of the images owns the images and the copyrights to any of the images that I didn’t create.

The artist who I am talking about is John Weber. I first discovered his work on the **Midjourney Images & Insights group. You can visit his feeds on Facebook using [this link (group user page)](https://www.facebook.com/groups/777337440666020/user/100011032862489/) and [this link (his profile)](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100011032862489)**.

In this article I will present 3 galleries of images and screen capture of stunning Midjourney art created by John Weber.

A Gallery of Interesting Characters Created by John Weber

One of the things that struck me early on was that John has great talent for creating unique characters in his images. There are many, many examples in his feed.

Here are five recent examples (from 5/13/26 to now). Each of these images was posted with one or more similar image. Below each image is a link to the original set of images. You may want to visit them to see more examples of John fantastic characters.

One thing about the art that John shares on his Facebook is that he doesn’t often supply a prompt for each image. It is usually just a very short description of an idea. I understand his attempts to protect his IP (intellectual property) but I think I would learn more about text and properties he uses to achieve his images.

Taking John’s Art and Experimenting with It

As I always try to give my readers encouragement to take information from my articles and use in their own creations. I wanted to create a few images in the spirit of John’s art.

What I decided to do was to drop two of John’s images into Gemini, and to ask Gemini to create a prompt suitable for Midjourney that would try to recreate the main elements of the images.

For the first example, I uploaded the first image (Mr. and Mrs. Fancypants) and received a text prompt from Gemini. Here is a lightly edited version of the prompt that I used to create a similar image.

a high-detail, exaggerated 3D character render featuring an elderly,
gaunt couple on a dock. The man, with a large nose and ears, wears a
blue newsboy cap, black-rimmed glasses, a red bowtie, and a yellow
short-sleeved shirt over blue striped shorts. He carries a blue bag
and has a suitcase with binoculars. The woman, with a surprised
expression, has pink pigtails, a matching blue cap, large round
glasses, a blue corset top, and a yellow floral skirt, with a red
handbag. The background includes a large, weathered blue and yellow
cruise ship, sea, and other blurred travelers. The overall style is 
playful, illustrative, and highly detailed, mimicking the textures 
and character design --v 8.1 --ar 1:1 --hd

And here is my creation from Midjourney:

here is my version of image 1 using the prompt above — created by the author in Midjourney v8.1

Here are the two images side by side:

the left image is John Weber’s original and the right image was created by the author

the left image is John Weber’s original and the right image was created by the author

My two cents: I think that John’s original has more detail shadings of color than my creation, but the essential characters came out OK.

For the second example, I uploaded the fourth image from above (The raccoon and the old man). Here is the lightly edited version of the second prompt. I used it to create my own raccoon and old man.

a detailed illustration depicting a surreal cafe scene. On the left,
an upright raccoon with realistic fur and a striped tail sits on a
chair, wearing a cream-colored fleece bathrobe and holding a ceramic
teacup with steam. To the right, a disheveled, bearded old man with
unruly curly hair and a large nose sits opposite, wearing a ragged
brown coat, a blue scarf, and patched jeans, stirring his coffee
with a spoon. Both characters gaze intently at each other. They sit
at a small round table with a maroon cloth, a teapot, and two cups.
The background is a textured, weathered plaster wall, partially
obscured by a dark curtain. The lighting is warm and directional

My two cents: As in the first example I feel that John’s original has more detailed textures and a broader color palette than my attempt. Gemini did do a good job of getting a lot of the elements of each character.

John does create a lot of really interesting characters but he also creates a lot of images with totally different subject matter and styles.

Let’s explore a few sets of images from John Weber with minimal prompts.

A Gallery of 4 Image Collages from Other Sets of Images

The images in this gallery are screen captures of the image sets attached to each prompt.

The prompt that John posted with the images is displayed right below the set title. Then the collage image and a link to the set for you to follow.

Going Further with Images from These Sets

I asked Gemini to create two more prompts for me. The first one would be to create a glass apple like the first image in set 2. Here is the lightly edited prompt that I used.

a high-detail, conceptual macro photograph of a transparent glass apple.
Inside the clear glass structure of the apple, an entire miniature
lush rainforest ecosystem is contained, featuring a vibrant multi-tiered
waterfall cascading over mossy green rocks. The interior is filled
with dense tropical foliage, ferns, and hanging vines. A realistic
brown wooden stem protrudes from the top of the glass apple. The
apple rests on a reflective surface, showing a soft, inverted
reflection beneath it. The background is a soft-focus, out-of-focus
bokeh of light green and white gradients. The lighting is bright
and clean, creating natural highlights and refractions on the curved
glass surface --v 8.1 --ar 1:1 --hd

Here is the image that was created.

For the second image of this section, I chose to use the first image in set 3.

So that I could do a simple comparison I decided to try using the ‘describe’ feature in Midjourney to create my image.

Here one of the prompts returned from Midjourney’s describe.

a photorealistic image depicts an anthropomorphic platypus wearing
a tweed cap and plaid jacket, relaxing in an old, blue clawfoot
bathtub. the platypus, with large dark eyes and a prominent bill,
is positioned in the center. the background features a distressed,
peeling blue wall with green tiled wainscoting. various vintage
items adorn the wall, including a framed picture, a round mirror,
shelves with bottles and tins, and steampunk style plumbing fixtures.
a brown towel hangs on the left wall
--v 8.1 --ar 5:4 --seed 260523 --hd

Here is the image that was created from that prompt.

here is my version of image 1 from Set 3 using the prompt above — created by the author in Midjourney v8.1

here is my version of image 1 from Set 3 using the prompt above — created by the author in Midjourney v8.1

Here are the two images side by side.

the left image is John Weber’s original (the first one in its set) and the right image was created by the author

the left image is John Weber’s original (the first one in its set) and the right image was created by the author

You can see some of the obvious differences between these two images. Describe thought the animal was a platypus, I thought it was a duck in the original. There are also some differences in scale, textures, and coloring.

I wanted to go one step further by editing the prompt to change the animal subject of the image.

a photorealistic image depicts an anthropomorphic alligator wearing
a tweed cap and plaid jacket, relaxing in an old, blue clawfoot
bathtub. the alligator, with large dark eyes and prominent teeth
is positioned in the center. the background features a distressed,
peeling blue wall with green tiled wainscoting. various vintage
items adorn the wall, including a framed picture, a round mirror,
shelves with bottles and tins, and steampunk style plumbing fixtures.
a brown towel hangs on the left wall
--v 8.1 --ar 5:4 --seed 260523 --hd

I changed the two references to “platypus” to “alligator” and “and a prominent bill” to “prominent teeth”. Here is the image from the modified prompt.

here is my “alligator” image using the prompt above — created by the author in Midjourney v8.1

Here are the platypus and alligator image.

the left image is the platypus image and the right image made with the modified prompt was created by the author

the left image is the platypus image and the right image made with the modified prompt was created by the author

Note: You may have noticed in previous two prompts that I added a “seed” parameter. This seed marks the pattern of noise that Midjourney uses to start the image. Because the two images use the same seed value they start generating from the same random noise pattern.

Now for one more gallery looking at some images from a diverse group of prompts.

A Gallery of 5 Individual Images and the Prompts That Created Them

Your Challenge:

  1. Here are five prompts created by Gemini of the five images above. (The lines in the text box below are not wrapped to make it easier for cut and pasting.)
// prompt 1
  a high-detail photograph of a figure completely wrapped from head to toe in layered, textured linen bandages. The figure is posed in profile against a textured, grey concrete wall, with its gloved hand raised to its mouth in a gesture of contemplation. The head is wrapped to form a large, elaborate blindfold that terminates in an oversized, layered fabric bow structure at the side. The figure is wearing a tailored jacket also made of textured linen bandages, which shows a crackled paint effect, and features a distinctive button or brooch. The overall color is monochromatic cream and beige. Soft, directional studio lighting defines the intricate textures --v 8.1 --ar 1:1 --hd

// prompt 2
  a photo-realistic portrait depicting a modern incarnation of Nefertiti. The bust-length figure is centered, angled in a 3/4 profile looking right, holding up a smartphone for a selfie. She wears the iconic, high-topped blue crown, weathered and textured like stone, with colorful geometric bands and an Ankh symbol on the front. Her face is highly detailed, with defined makeup and dramatic eyeliner. She wears a complex, ornate high collar of textured turquoise and gold, adorned with numerous beads and stones, including a long pearl necklace. Her hands are covered in an array of elaborate, antique gold and gemstone rings and bracelets, holding a phone case decorated with intricate Egyptian-style motifs matching her jewelry. The background is a deeply textured, ancient gold-ochre plaster wall. The lighting is focused and rich, emphasizing the varied textures of stone, metal, and skin. The entire scene has a shallow depth of field --v --v 8.1 --ar 1:1 --hd

// prompt 3
  a photo-realistic, high-detail rendering of an anthropomorphic apple character standing against a dark red gradient studio background. The ripe red apple has a glossy, water-droplet-covered surface and detailed cartoon eyes behind thin black-rimmed glasses, and a perfect circular 'O' of surprise. It has thin black eyebrow ridges and the central stem. In its right hand (figure's left), it holds the same rose-gold Apple iPad Pro, with its back facing forward showing the detailed, engraved-looking Apple logo. The iPad is held with the identical three-fingered white cartoon glove. The other hand has the matching glove and is pressed to its hip in the same pose. The apple character stands on the identical clean white sneakers. The lighting is soft and professional, highlighting the textures of the apple skin, the tablet, and the fabric of the sneakers. The composition is a direct, front-on portrait --v 8.1 --ar 1:1 --hd

// prompt 4
  a Renaissance-style oil painting depicting seven bearded men in vibrant robes (yellow, green, pink) gathered around a large, detailed cartographic table map. They study and point at different regions, with some taking notes. The background features a detailed wooden study, shelves packed with diverse antique objects like globes and vessels. The scene uses warm, focused lighting --v 8.1 --ar 1:1 --hd

// prompt 5
  an impressionistic oil painting of an ancient, textured stone and stucco building facade in a Mediterranean village. The image depicts a view of three sets of large, heavily weathered wooden double doors set into rounded arches. The left door is peeling blue. The central door is mixed, with one side blue and one side yellow. The right door is red. Each door has a few small stone steps. Above the doors are weathered windows with wooden shutters, and a central small iron balcony. The entire structure is made of rough, crumbling golden-brown stone and peeling stucco. The foreground is paved with irregular cobblestones. The light is soft and directional, emphasizing the rich, impasto textures of the paint. The composition is frontal and symmetric. The brushwork is expressive and visible, with a rich, aged patina over the entire surface --v 8.1 --ar 4:3 --hd
