How can I get the best results from Dreamina 3.1?
To get the best results from Dreamina 3.1, use detailed prompts that specify material properties, directional lighting, and camera framing. If you encounter issues like plastic-looking reflections or unnatural fabric drapes, follow the community's iterative image-to-image workflow: generate a base 2K image, upload it as a reference, and adjust your prompt to focus strictly on texture correction (e.g., "enhance visible linen weave texture"). For more techniques, consult official Dreamina tutorials.

- Quote your text: For accurate typography, place the exact words you want rendered inside quotation marks.
- Specify lighting and architecture: Use terms like "natural window lighting," "clean geometric details," or "balanced composition" to leverage its strengths in architectural and fantasy scenes.
- Define the medium: Explicitly state the desired format (e.g., "commercial photography," "cinematic film frame," or "3D-style graphics") to lock in the aesthetic.
- Bilingual prompting: Take advantage of its native understanding of both English and Chinese prompts for nuanced cultural or regional details.
