🛠️ Purpose & Design Philosophy
This workflow is a high-fidelity environment built for Illustrious. It prioritizes stability and professional texture over generation speed. It follows an "all-in-one" philosophy: configure your prompts, hit queue, and let the workflow handle the multi-stage refinement from start to finish.
Not for Speed: This is a heavy-duty refinement tool. If you want 2-second previews, use a basic workflow.
Personal Use: Built for my specific production needs. It is shared as-is for those who want a "set-and-forget" pipeline for Illustrious. Adjust the settings and models to fit your needs. The defaults on v19+ will be what I used for the sample images.
All-in-One Logic: The workflow handles generation, detailing, and upscaling in one continuous pass.
If you're needing something with more features: Try checking out Silly All-in-one, Multiple Characters With Regional Loras which is on civitai.
⚠️ Disclaimer & Compatibility
Install at Your Own Risk: Custom nodes can break your environment. I am not responsible for troubleshooting your specific installation.
ComfyUI: Built and tested on the non-app version. Desktop app users may face additional hurdles.
The "Your Version" Factor: Your node versions and environment are 99.9% likely to differ from mine.
Nodes 2.0: I do not recommend using Nodes 2.0. It creates unpredictable UI behavior; I will not provide support for issues involving this feature.
🤝 Support & Boundaries
I have not and never will monetize my workflow. CivitAI is the only platform I am maintaining this workflow on. If you find a version of my workflow posted and/or monetized anywhere and use it, then whoever posted it is responsible for providing you any support. This is the main reason why I don't monetize this: I don't want to be or feel obligated to provide support.
No DMs: DMs are disabled due to repeat spam. Please check the Discussions tab below; most questions have already been answered.
Modifications: You are free to hack this workflow apart. However, you are responsible for fixing it if it breaks.
Custom Requests: I do not make private workflows. If you need a custom solution, post a Bounty on CivitAI. There are many talented creators ready to help you for a fee.
Description
v4e changes:
Removed the 1st USDU node and replaced it with a KSampler (Sampler Custom)
This node upscales via the same upscaler model as USDU
Added a node to pick the upscale factor without you having to do the math. (Example: if your initial image is 1024x1024 and you set the Scale Factor to "2" this KSampler will upscale it to 2048x2048).
Node for selecting denoise for this node has been added as well to keep it separate from the USDU settings for denoise.
Watermark Removal
Split up the nodes to be just like how they are grouped in the workflow it originally came from.
Added the alternative version back in for those who want to use it. (Personally, I will stick to what I know works.)
Added Fast Groups Bypasser from rgthree
This allows you to toggle groups on/off in one place and also provides a way to go to any group by clicking on the arrow button.
Added a Detailer Group after the 1st Upscale.
This can be bypassed if you don't want to use it.
Dynamic Thresholding and Detail Daemon are set to bypass by default.
If you like using these (I do), then just re-enable them and adjust your parameters accordingly.
Workflow using default settings from start to finish took 130 seconds on my 3060. YMMV.
