🛠️ 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
v5a changes:
Added ComfyUI-Adaptive-Guidance
This will only affect the 2 KSamplers at the start of the workflow.
Cannot be bypassed. You can remove this from the workflow if it is not for you. Just make sure to add a Guider node of some sort and connect it to the KSamplers or the workflow will be broken.
I discovered this node while looking up settings for "specialized" samplers.
Added ControlNet
This is connected to the 1st KSampler and can be bypassed.
You might have to put an image in the Load Image node even if you are not using the ControlNet Group.
Utilizes an All-in-One processor node from comfyui_controlnet_aux
The AIO processor node will download any missing processor files based on what you select on the node to use (at least for me it did).
You need to download a ControlNet model to use in the LoadControlNet Model node. I am using ControlNet-Union (promax version) which can be downloaded from here.
Re-added MaHiRo (ComfyUI v3.8+)
I used it in the demo images for v5a
If you are on an older version of comfy, you can just delete it from the workflow
It can be bypassed
