This workflow converts any non-realistic images to realistic using Pony XL.

🆕 What's New in V3

Welcome to Pony-Anime-Cosplay-v3 workflow! Below are the key improvements and updates designed to optimize the whole workflow, improve facial recognition, and more features.

📈 Refiner

• Added SDXL Refiner for more realism regardless of mode - uses JuggernautXL

• Utilizes InsightFace and FaceID PLUS V2 for facial detection and face swap.

• Uses Tile or Canny CNet for more accuracy - switch between two depending on the refiner output - defaults to Tile.

• Switch between initial generated face (from Pony) or an image input.

⚠️ Note: Face detection may occasionally fail or detect the wrong face. If results are inconsistent, try different inputs (main and/or face image).

🌾 Film Grain Integration

• Uses VRGameDevGirl Fast Film Grain (set to 0.02) to add more realistic output.

⚙️ Configuration Changes

💡 These are based on personal preferences. Feel free to adjust them to fit your workflow needs.

1. ⏭️ Moved Highres-Fix to Refiner - it doesn't make sense to put on the first generation.

2. ❌ Disabled cinematic photography... Lora.

3. ➕ Added separate seed node to each detailer for more flexibility. I use it for testing purposes but can be useful if you want to regenerate a certain detailer.

4. 🔄 Changed values for each CNet nodes.

5. ➕ Added Additional Promp which appends to the end of final prompt. This is already available in the text concat, but due to the node placements, i just added it as a connection to the 6th concat. This allows us to be more precise, for example, character names if it wasn't added, or other charactre features missed by the tagger.

🧰 Quality-of-Life Improvements

1. 🧩 General node rearrangement for a cleaner layout.

2. 🔗 Updated Modes & Download Links – including updated default settings.

3. ➕ Added new modes!
