🛠️ How to fix bad AI generations
Every creator hits ugly hands, melting faces and gibberish text. Here is the short checklist that fixes 90% of them — no expensive re-rolls.
Broken hands and fingers
Add 'natural anatomically correct hands, five visible fingers, relaxed pose'. Crop tight or out of frame when fingers aren't the story. Switch to Flux Pro or Imagen 4 if the model you're using is older.
Melted or doll-like faces
Move the subject further from camera, ask for a 'natural skin texture, visible pores, soft Rembrandt key light'. Avoid stacking 'beautiful, perfect, flawless' — those words push the model toward plastic AI faces.
Gibberish text in the image
Most models still struggle with letters. For posters, packaging or logos, use Recraft or Ideogram. For everything else, omit text and add it in any free image editor after.
Wrong style or off-brand colours
Add a single strong art reference ('Wes Anderson palette', 'Helmut Newton b&w', 'Kodak Portra 400'). One reference beats five adjectives. If the model still drifts, lower the prompt's adjective count.
Wrong subject or composition
Switch from text-to-image to an edit or image-to-image flow with a quick sketch or photo as the anchor. The AI obeys structure better than words for layout decisions.
