first there were Street artists that would draw your picture on the corner then there was an online revelation of getting your caricature you could get a personalized drawing on demand from some of the best artists in the world and now there's AI personalized art you can get your face on almost any character imaginable this used to take multiple hours to create now you can do it in under 5 minutes with all of these AI tools let's show you how it's done so the keyword we're looking for here is AI personalized portrait and over the past few months this has been blowing up on Etsy this store that does custom Royal portraits 2500 reviews almost five stars and I know the price here is 4358 if you want to print it out on a canvas which it looks like this is your sole cost is going to be printing that canvas but to make this photo almost all the tools are free and mid Journey which would be my IM image generator for something like this $10 per month for 200 Generations so that side of this business is completely free and looking through most of these I'm not sure about the superhero one of course this is something you can do too I'm worried about copyright here's a dog as like a king or a prince I like the idea of hanging a picture like this in your house as a slight Flex there's also Vikings which is cool too let's see if we can do the royalty in this video so I'm going to scroll up to this one cuz this one seems to be the most popular and we're going to use this Etsy listing as a template so we can create our own first off I'm going to sign into my account and now go to the shop manager and we're going to create a new listing I'm going to go over here and click add a listing now of course you can do this on any website Shopify WordPress make your own but I like the idea of getting traffic organically through something like Etsy it's going to be a physical item it's going to be a real canvas I made it it's a finished product It's Made made to order and we can just select continue let's pull up the other shop that we can use for inspiration and I'm going to take his title here copy it let's go over to chat GPT and I wrote can you reward this title so that it keeps the same meaning but the words are only slightly different and then I paste it in that title and now I'm going to copy this it uses similar keywords let's paste it in my listing it's a little long let's trim it down I'm going to take away the human likeness and the Regal portraits okay perfect we're going to need some photos and videos looks like he has a bunch here too it's going to take us a while to get this entire backlog so I think we're just good with showcasing one of the images that we can create let's come back to that in a quick second first the description and I'm scrolling down I'm not sure this is handmade especially because it's a digital portrait but I can take this I can copy all the description we'll go up to here we'll go back to chat GPT again and we're going to use that same prompt and this is probably a little too long for us I'm going to shorten it and that is much better much shorter much more clear let's paste that into the description just going to double check all right that looks good we are going to need a photo of the person that is making the order so I'm going to click add personalization So the instructions are somewhat similar we're going to say please send the photo via Etsy message with your order number then please write the variation number so we're going to offer multiple variations and then I can send back to the customer a portrait preview so that they can approve and I can start printing it okay that's perfect let's come back to price later let's first work out the business process once we get an order so looking in his images he uploaded a photo guide this is probably a good idea to have in our listing we need faces Actually I don't even like this one I think this one's two to the side we want faces that are front and center that are clear that we can see the full face this cutof one would not work because we're going to use an AI face swap tool to throw that face quickly into our portrait in order to create the portrait template we're going to use mid Journey mid journey is an AI image generator in my opinion it's the best one out there they just released version six Which is far and a way better than their last Model and it all works through Discord so to sign up go to Mid journey.com you're going to scroll down and click join the beta mid journey is a Discord bot you need to add it to a Discord server so it's going to log you in with your Discord profile here's mine West Frank I'm going to scroll down hit authorize and it's going to bring you to this mid Journey homepage the bottom left corner hover over your profile click manage subscription and unfortunately you need a paid plan in order to use mid Journey the lowest one is $10 per month and this gives you 200 Generations more than enough if you ever need more in the future future let's say you start getting a lot of orders coming in you can always upgrade but for now the basic plan will work once you subscribe to a mid Journey plan it's going to drop you into their Discord server now you want to find their mid Journey bot on the right side click this we're going to click add app and we're going to add it to one of your pre-made servers I have five already here and the mid Journey bot is in all of them so I don't need to do this but just click and then continue all right now let's start gener generating a base template so we want to do Royal we want to do like a king or a prince first we want to edit our settings of mid Journey so for that we're going to use the command slash settings hit enter and we're going to make sure that the newest model is selected that's version six let's use raw mode so mid Journey listens to our prompt more and then I like stylize low to make more realistic looking photos to prompt the image generator we're going to use the command slash imagine and for the prompt I'm going to use a realistic Renaissance Royal portrait of a male king and then D- AR means aspect ratio and I'm doing 2x3 here are all the aspect ratios available with mid Journey you can theoretically offer canvases in any of these sizes I think a royal portrait does best with this 231 so this is the aspect ratio that I'm going to use all right let's hit enter and here are results now I like them a lot this is the one I was kind of going for so I might use the second one oh this one's so good too and then this one's a little too cartoony so this one looks somewhat painted which is perfect looks like a real portrait from that time so now I need to upscale one of these photos so I want to grab number four here and that's where you use these buttons down here U1 U2 u3 u4 means upscale that image let's go upscale number four it's going to going to make it bigger and there we go now it's time to put somebody else's face into this portrait all right as an example let's say this face came in as an order this is exactly what we're looking for the face is front and center it's clear it's facing forward I can see the full face we would take this image and superimpose the face onto our portrait using a free AI tool called face swapper you get it by Googling Insight face swap Discord now it's going to be the first link let's click on that link it's going to want you to authorize this app to one of your servers and right now I'm working with West GPT use the same server that you added the mid Journey bot to hit continue authorize and now when you load back up your server you're going to see this thing called Insight face swap bot on the right side first we need to set an image that's going to be the original face to swap and we do that with the command SL save ID there's going to be an image input we're going to click this and upload our face this guy's name isan so we're going to save it as jua an hit enter and now that ID name has been created once you create a new ID name it also sets the ID name so all you have to do is go up to the picture you want to swap rightclick go down to apps and then click ins swapper it's going to send the command in and there we go this is Jan's face has that Royal portrait look how quick that took if you want to compare this is the original this is the AI face swap tool look at this now I'm seeing a slight issue with the hair but in all honesty that doesn't look too bad still looks natural a bit lighter and it nicely flows into that red style hair so I actually wouldn't touch up a lot with this photo but if you were very particular you could always rightclick save image as and then open that image in Photoshop or or a free Photoshop like Photo p and touch it up make some changes but now we have our image we have our face swap portrait the next step is to upscale it if we're going to blow it up to a large canvas this image needs to be the highest quality possible to do that I'm going to use upscale dodia it's free for the first three credits so I'm going to upload my image and then scroll down we're going to choose the highest which is 4X that brings us up to 30 584 by 5376 it's a pretty large image Go download image and saves it to our computer now for printing the canvas I'm going to use printify printify hooks nicely into Etsy that's why I'm going to use this one but you can use any canvas printer that you can find online just make sure you find the perfect balance between cost for you and the largest canvas and highest quality canvas that you can make so let's let's go to start designing and now we need to choose our product variants I'm going to uncheck 10x 8 we got to find the size that most resembles our 2x3 aspect ratio now that would be 12 by8 that would be 16x 24 what's the largest we can get could do 24 by 36 hit update and it's going to change our canvas to that aspect ratio now we need to upload our photo this is the AI upscaled image and there we go and we can click the different sizes to see how it's going to spread out on the canvas now I can hit save product and then potentially use some of these images for the Etsy Shop these are the suggested retail prices for each of the canvas sizes and how much profit you'd make on each sale now when you use something like printify these prices are going to be inflated that's why if you're serious about this it's better to develop a relationship with an independent canvas printer than use some of the big guns like printify printful Etc if you don't want to use canvas you can also use posters a matte vertical poster is a lot cheaper than a canvas might be easier to ship to they also have the rolled posters let's click this and I'm going to go to start designing again we got to choose our product variants let's find the closest to 2x3 we can and it looks to be 24x 36 hit update we're going to add that AI upscaled image and there it's ready to save print and send on demand here is a highlevel overview of this business process you start an online store that sells custom AI portraits you can do Royal Renaissance Vikings superheroes any other character that you can imagine the choice is yours set up the shop on Etsy Shopify WordPress or your own website make a listing that nicely shows what you do you take somebody's face that they send you and then you AI face swap it onto a custom portrait an order comes in let's say you got this picture of a man you would download this picture to your computer you would go over to Discord you would generate either a brand new portrait you can use a similar prompt like this a realistic Renaissance Royal portrait of a male king I like the aspect ratio of 2x3 you can use a completely original one each time or use a template let's say I use this one I would use the Insight face swap tool by right clicking save ID upload the image of the man set that ID to his name then you can rightclick your template go to apps ins swapper you'll get an AI face swap like this we're going to right click download that image go over to a free AI image upscaler like upscale media upload that image upscale it to the highest resolution possible we're going to need this when we print on larger canvases or posters and then lay out that picture on the canvas print on demand make sure you charge enough to make a profit after shipping and there you go you have a custom AI portrait shop in under 30 minutes if you like this video don't worry we're not done check out one of these two on screen now and learn something about AI peace
