2026 Advanced AI Visual Design Course (Updated 1007): Learn MJ + PS Banana + GPT Image 2.0; Complete Characters, Buildings, Scene Illustrations and Full IP Design

Course Intro

The "2026 Advanced AI Visual Design Practice Course" is a 35-lesson systematic practice course built around AI design workflows, Midjourney/Niji, PS Banana, GPT Image 2.0 and full IP design. It does not rely on AI to "generate the finished piece in one shot," but builds a progressive method: sketch-to-direction, refine structure and style, image-reference/mix/merge/blend, precise control, then commercial visual output. It starts from MJ install, parameters, prompt structure and Banana basics, mastering AI design via character and building cases; the advanced stage focuses on Niji mixing, ratio control, combo use, PS built-in Banana flow, building upgrade, home design, systematic text-to-image, three-view precision control and sketch-to-illustration. It then trains personal style, mixed style, pose control and the full IP-design flow, producing character three-views, dynamic sheets, game battle art and illustration promo visuals. The case library covers non-living-thing sketch cleanup, color swaps, pose swaps, face swaps, render swaps, systematic keywords, stylized mini-games, game keyframes and opening/closing keyframe animation. It ends with a complete IP case as a capstone, chaining characters, props, scenes, buildings, illustrations and motion visuals, building a reusable, iterable AI-assisted design workflow.
