ILLUMINATE AI — KREA 2 TURBO
INDEPENDENT CREATOR + EDIT STUDIO v1.0
A complete modular generation and image-editing environment built specifically for Krea 2 Turbo inside ComfyUI.
This major update rebuilds the workflow around a new independent architecture. CREATE, Native Edit Original, Native Edit Custom and Classic Img2Img now operate as separate image pipelines with their own decoding, previews, SeedVR2 processing and final save outputs.
The workflow also introduces the new ILLUMINATE KREA PROMPT DIRECTOR, direct Ollama integration, dedicated prompt profiles and the included ComfyUI-ILLUMINATE-AI-KREA custom-node package.
The result is a clearer, safer and more flexible workflow that supports fast native Krea generation, precise instruction-based editing, custom aspect-ratio conversion and creative denoise-based Img2Img without forcing every mode through one shared image route.
Hotfix v1.0.1: Fixed an issue that could cause colorful or pixelated results when using the Face, Hand and other Detailers. The original Detailer group-control configuration has been restored. Please replace the previous workflow and Custom Node Pack, then restart ComfyUI.
MAJOR UPDATE — INDEPENDENT ARCHITECTURE
The entire workflow has been reorganized into four independent working modes:
CREATE
NATIVE EDIT — ORIGINAL
NATIVE EDIT — CUSTOM
CLASSIC IMG2IMG
Each mode keeps its own local image pipeline.
There is no shared image router connecting all four outputs. This prevents unused branches from interfering with the active mode and reduces required-input errors caused by inactive Native Edit, SeedVR2 or Img2Img sections.
Each image branch now has its own:
sampler or edit sampler
VAE decode
base-result preview
optional SeedVR2 pipeline
final preview
final save output
local model and conditioning route where required
Only activate the image branch you currently want to use.
Unused image branches should remain on Bypass.
NEW — ILLUMINATE KREA MODE SELECTOR
The new ILLUMINATE KREA MODE SELECTOR provides a central prompt-profile selection for the workflow.
Available modes:
CREATE
NATIVE EDIT — ORIGINAL
NATIVE EDIT — CUSTOM
CLASSIC IMG2IMG
The selector changes the prompt behavior used by the Prompt Director.
It intentionally does not activate or connect the image pipelines automatically. The selected prompt mode and the image branch enabled through the corresponding Fast Groups Bypasser must match.
This design keeps the image architecture independent and avoids ComfyUI validating unused image branches.
NEW — ILLUMINATE KREA PROMPT DIRECTOR
The new ILLUMINATE KREA PROMPT DIRECTOR combines the complete Manual and Assisted prompting system into one custom node.
It includes:
Manual prompting
Ollama-assisted prompt generation
dedicated prompt profiles for each workflow mode
direct local Ollama communication
automatic Ollama model unloading
exact final prompt preview
word and character counter
copy button
generation status display
one shared final text output for the active prompt profile
The preview and copy functions do not trigger a second Ollama request.
MANUAL MODE
Use MANUAL when you already have a complete prompt or editing instruction.
In MANUAL mode:
the text is passed through unchanged
Ollama is not required
no Ollama client is created
no local network request is made
no additional prompt interpretation is applied
This is the fastest and most predictable mode.
ASSISTED MODE
Use ASSISTED when you want to enter keywords, a short concept or a rough idea.
The Prompt Director sends the idea once to the selected local Ollama model and creates a complete prompt optimized for the selected workflow mode.
The included profiles are not identical.
CREATE profile
Produces a complete image-generation prompt designed for Krea 2 Turbo.
NATIVE EDIT profile
Produces a focused editing instruction that prioritizes preservation of:
identity
pose
composition
perspective
anatomy
camera position
relevant source-image structure
CLASSIC IMG2IMG profile
Produces a target-image description intended for the visible denoise-controlled Img2Img sampler.
When unload-after-generation is enabled, the Ollama request uses keep_alive: 0. This releases the language model before Krea image generation begins and prevents Ollama from unnecessarily occupying memory during the image pipeline.
The separate comfyui-ollama prompt nodes are not required.
MAIN CREATOR
The CREATE branch is designed around Krea 2 Turbo’s intended fast inference behavior.
Recommended base configuration:
8 steps
CFG 1.0
Euler sampler
Simple scheduler
native Krea-compatible resolution
modular optional processing
The Main Creator includes:
dedicated Krea 2 model loader
Qwen3-VL text encoder loader
Qwen Image VAE loader
Power LoRA Loader with MODEL and CLIP routing
optional negative prompt switcher
native base generation
separate Base Preview
optional Mild Quality Refinement
separate Refinement Preview
optional Concept Batch
optional Detailer Suite
independent SeedVR2 finishing stage
dedicated final preview
dedicated final save output
BASE AND REFINEMENT ARE NOW CLEARLY SEPARATED
The Main Creator now provides two direct review stages:
BASE PREVIEW
Displays the result directly after the first Krea sampler and VAE decode.
REFINEMENT PREVIEW
Displays the result after the optional Mild Quality Refinement stage.
This makes it possible to compare the original Krea result with the refined result before continuing into the Detailer Suite or SeedVR2.
Refinement is optional.
Krea 2 Turbo can already produce strong results without an additional sampling stage. Enable refinement only when it produces a visible improvement for the current image.
OPTIONAL CONCEPT BATCH
The Concept Batch module can generate four variations of the same concept for comparison.
Use it to:
explore different seeds
compare compositions
test prompt interpretation
select a stronger base concept before additional processing
The Concept Batch is optional and bypassed by default.
COMPLETE OPTIONAL DETAILER SUITE
The workflow includes five independent Detailer modules:
Face Detailer
Hand Detailer
Penis Detailer
Vagina Detailer
Female Breast Detailer
Each Detailer contains:
its own positive prompt
its own negative prompt
a dedicated BBOX detector
an independent enable or bypass control
Krea-safe sampling settings
a separate review preview after processing
Default Detailer configuration:
8 steps
CFG 1.0
Euler
Simple
The available Detailer chain is:
Base Generation
→ Optional Quality Refinement
→ Face Detailer
→ Hand Detailer
→ Penis Detailer
→ Vagina Detailer
→ Female Breast Detailer
→ Optional SeedVR2
→ Final Preview
→ Final Save
Every Detailer works independently.
You can enable only Face, only Hands or any combination required for the current image. All optional Detailer groups are bypassed by default.
For SFW use, only the Face and Hand detectors are necessary.
REQUIRED DETAILER DETECTORS
The workflow uses dedicated detector models for the Detailer Suite:
face_yolov8m.pthand_yolov8s.ptpenis.ptpussy.ptfemale_breast-v4.2.pt
Installation information is included inside the workflow.
Detector models are not included in the workflow ZIP and must be installed separately.
IMAGE EDIT STUDIO
The Image Edit Studio contains three independent editing systems:
Native Edit — Original Target
Native Edit — Custom Target
Classic Img2Img
These modes are designed for different purposes and should not be treated as interchangeable.
NATIVE EDIT — ORIGINAL TARGET
Native Edit Original is intended for precise, instruction-based modifications while preserving the original image format.
It is suitable for:
identity-preserving edits
clothing changes
lighting adjustments
background changes
object replacement
controlled appearance changes
better pose preservation
better composition preservation
targeted corrections
The branch uses:
Krea2Edit Model Patch
Grounded Edit Prompt
Identity Edit LoRA
Grounding Resolution control
AuraFlow sampling
visible denoise control
optional creative LoRA support
independent VAE decode
independent SeedVR2 output
separate preview and save output
Recommended starting settings:
Grounding Resolution: 768
Identity Edit LoRA: 1.0
Steps: 8
CFG: 1.0
Sampler: Euler
Scheduler: Beta
Denoise: 1.0
Original Target Mode preserves the normalized resolution and aspect ratio of the source image.
Use this mode when the edited result should remain in the same general format as the original.
NATIVE EDIT — CUSTOM TARGET FORMAT
Native Edit Custom uses the original image as a grounded visual reference but generates the result at a new target width and height.
This allows you to convert an image into another format without simply stretching it.
Example formats:
1344 × 768 — 16:9
768 × 1344 — 9:16
1536 × 1024 — 3:2
1024 × 1536 — 2:3
1536 × 1536 — Square
The Custom Target branch includes:
adjustable target width
adjustable target height
dedicated target latent
separate Krea 2 Edit sampler
independent decode
base-result preview
optional dedicated SeedVR2 upscale
final preview
separate final save output
The model generates the additional image areas based on the source image and edit instruction.
For best results, begin with moderate aspect-ratio changes.
Extreme changes require Krea 2 to generate significantly more new visual information and may alter framing, pose, composition or background structure.
CLASSIC IMG2IMG
Classic Img2Img is a traditional denoise-based branch intended for creative reinterpretation.
Use it for:
stronger stylistic changes
visual transformations
creative reinterpretation
checkpoint-driven restyling
greater freedom from the source image
denoise-controlled preservation
The branch includes:
independent Krea 2 model stack
dedicated positive prompt
dedicated negative prompt
optional negative conditioning
separate Power LoRA Loader
AuraFlow sampling shift
normalized source resolution
visible denoise control
independent VAE encoding and decoding
optional dedicated SeedVR2 upscale
separate preview
separate final save output
Recommended starting denoise:
0.50
Lower values preserve more of the source image.
Higher values allow stronger reinterpretation but may change anatomy, identity, pose and composition.
Use Classic Img2Img when creative freedom is more important than strict source preservation.
Use Native Edit when the result should remain closer to the original image.
INDEPENDENT SEEDVR2 OUTPUTS
SeedVR2 is available independently for:
CREATE
NATIVE EDIT — ORIGINAL
NATIVE EDIT — CUSTOM
CLASSIC IMG2IMG
Each branch has its own SeedVR2 models, image input, preview and final save path.
SeedVR2 should only be enabled after the base result already looks correct.
It may improve:
final resolution
perceived detail
texture clarity
edge definition
overall presentation quality
Always compare the base image with the SeedVR2 result.
Small textures, skin details, eyes, facial features and other fine structures may be slightly reinterpreted during upscaling.
FAST GROUPS AND BRANCH CONTROL
The workflow uses Fast Groups to keep optional modules and image branches independent.
For each run:
Select the matching prompt profile.
Activate the image branch you want to use.
Keep all unrelated image branches bypassed.
Enable only the optional modules required for the current result.
Use the preview and save output belonging to the active branch.
For Native Edit, activate either:
Original Target
Custom Target Format
Avoid running both simultaneously unless you intentionally want both output formats.
Use Bypass for inactive modules.
Do not use Mute / Never for optional branches unless you understand how your current ComfyUI version validates disconnected required inputs.
INCLUDED CUSTOM NODES
The download package includes:
ComfyUI-ILLUMINATE-AI-KREA
The included node pack provides:
ILLUMINATE KREA MODE SELECTOR
ILLUMINATE KREA PROMPT DIRECTOR
direct Ollama communication
Manual and Assisted prompt modes
dedicated prompt profiles
automatic Ollama unloading
final prompt preview
word and character count
prompt copy function
compatibility support for earlier ILLUMINATE Krea test workflows
No separate Python dependency installation is required for the included ILLUMINATE node pack.
Copy the complete folder into:
ComfyUI/custom_nodes/
Then restart ComfyUI completely.
Do not merge the files into an older installation. Replace the previous ComfyUI-ILLUMINATE-AI-KREA folder completely.
A full English installation guide is included in the download package.
REQUIRED MODELS
The workflow requires compatible versions of:
Krea 2 Turbo diffusion model
Qwen3-VL text encoder
Qwen Image VAE
Krea 2 Identity Edit LoRA
SeedVR2 DiT model when SeedVR2 is enabled
SeedVR2 VAE model when SeedVR2 is enabled
required BBOX detector models for enabled Detailers
optional creative LoRAs selected by the user
Large model files are not included in the workflow ZIP.
If a loader contains a filename that does not exist on your system, select the compatible model installed locally.
Optional LoRAs that are not installed must be disabled or replaced before queueing the affected branch.
REQUIRED CUSTOM NODE PACKS
Depending on the enabled modules, the workflow uses nodes from:
rgthree-comfycomfyui-krea2editComfyUI-SeedVR2_VideoUpscalerComfyUI-Impact-PackComfyUI-Impact-SubpackComfyUI-Easy-UseComfyUI EssentialsComfyUI-Custom-ScriptsTinyTerraNodes
Use:
ComfyUI Manager → Install Missing Custom Nodes
After installing Python custom nodes, close ComfyUI completely and restart it. Refreshing only the browser is not sufficient.
OLLAMA SETUP
Ollama is required only for ASSISTED prompt generation.
MANUAL mode works without Ollama.
Recommended local model:
fredrezones55/Qwen3.5-Uncensored-HauhauCS-Aggressive:9b
Install it with:
ollama pull fredrezones55/Qwen3.5-Uncensored-HauhauCS-Aggressive:9b
Default Ollama address:
http://127.0.0.1:11434
The Prompt Director communicates directly with the local Ollama API.
The separate comfyui-ollama custom nodes are not required.
HARDWARE AND COMPATIBILITY
Created and tested with Windows Portable ComfyUI on:
NVIDIA RTX 5090
32 GB VRAM
64 GB system RAM
The workflow is not locked to this hardware.
Actual compatibility, generation speed and usable output resolution depend on:
available VRAM
system RAM
selected model precision
selected image dimensions
active Detailers
active LoRAs
SeedVR2 settings
number of simultaneously enabled branches
local ComfyUI configuration
Update ComfyUI before loading the workflow because Krea 2 and related custom nodes may require recent ComfyUI functionality.
WORKFLOW PHILOSOPHY
The purpose of this workflow is not to force every available module into every image.
Krea 2 Turbo is already designed for fast, high-quality generation.
The workflow provides optional tools, but they should only be activated when they create a visible improvement.
The workflow prioritizes:
fast Krea 2 generation
independent and stable image branches
clear mode separation
Manual and Assisted prompting
direct local Ollama integration
predictable branch control
strong LoRA compatibility
separate Base and Refinement review
creative Img2Img
precise instruction-based Native Edit
identity and composition preservation
custom output formats
modular Detailer processing
independent SeedVR2 finishing
separate previews and final save outputs
