NailDraft vs Midjourney for Nail Design

Midjourney makes generic art. NailDraft is trained on real manicure photography — so cuticles, finishes, and shapes render true.

Midjourney (and most general image models) wasn't trained on close-up manicure photography. The result for nail prompts: wrong cuticle lines, melted tips, occasional six-finger hands, and finishes that don't exist in real polish. NailDraft is purpose-tuned on manicure photography, so the renders read like a salon photo, not an illustration.

Frequently asked

Can't I just use Midjourney for nails?

You can, but expect to iterate a lot — six fingers, melted tips, and weird cuticles are common. NailDraft handles all the manicure-specific anatomy out of the box.

Is NailDraft on Discord?

No, runs in any browser. Nothing to install.
