🛠️ 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
v6 changes:
Stripped down the workflow a bit and changed the upscaling process. I wanted to remove the functions that I hardly (or never) use. I do not plan on adding any extra functions to this version.
Dropped IMG2IMG, ControlNet, and Ultimate SD Upscale from the workflow.
If you like those functions, please continue to use the previous workflows or modify this one to include them.
This version requires less custom nodes compared to before.
Replaced USDU with Iterative Upscaling (from Impact Pack).
The benefits: upscaling is more stable.
The drawbacks:
Not faster and can be slower depending on settings.
Less details (in my opinion).
Does not work with CFG++SamplerSelect or Detail Daemon. Those two nodes will only affect the initial KSampler.
Added Dynamic Thresholding back in.
If you are not familiar with how to use this node, you can just leave it disabled or read up on it here.
On my 3060:
Using Euler A the full workflow takes 170 seconds from start to finish.
Using Euler A CFG++ takes 162 seconds from start to finish. (due to less initial steps needed).
This will be a trial run of this workflow. Not 100% committed to this one yet.
