First attempt at anything workflow related but I've been learning quite a bit about ComfyUI and decided this was good enough to share.

The Journey:

I had spent a good while trying to create "realistic" images with Flux for a while. Obviously, everyone has their preference but this was the diffusion horse I hitched my wagon to so here we are. I had decent results but not until Flux Krea did I see a massive improvement in quality and prompt adherence. So with that, I took bits and pieces from other workflows I liked, spent some time building what I felt would be decently intuitive and now I'd like to share what's been working for me.

What it Does:
The idea came from another WF, apologies for not writing down where it came from, but put simply...You do a first pass generation with your model/sampler/scheduler, then send that latent image through a second pass for "cleanup & detail". The results have been quite impressive. (see below)

From there, you can send that through a HiRes Fix/Upscale and finally onto Color Correction. I set these up so that you didn't have to waste time/resources generating the whole thing and instead, could only run the 1/2 pass solo until you found a seed/combo you liked and THEN you could do all the extra bits after.

Because I struggled with more specific prompts in regards to character poses/actions, I implemented AIO Aux Preprocessor for ControlNet to use either Canny/Depth/Openpose. To make the most out of this, I found the Flux 1Dev ControlNet Union Pro 2.0 works wonders! Link to that model here => https://huggingface.co/Shakker-Labs/FLUX.1-dev-ControlNet-Union-Pro-2.0/tree/main

Lastly, I decided to include some Inpainting since I was getting 95% of the way there on certain generations and was tired of having to send that output to another WF just to come back here and send it through the other steps I had setup. So now, I just put in the option to upload your previous generations, edit what you want, the toggle to have those Upscaled and Colored.

If you have any questions/comments/suggestions, I'm open to any and all feedback. Again, I'm fairly new at all this so I'm MORE than certain I have no idea what I'm doing with plenty of this and would greatly appreciate that guidance. Hope this helps those looking for more "True to life" generations like I was. If I make or find any reasons to update this WF, I'll be sure to come back and update this post as well.

Enjoy.
