Hey y'all!

Use familiar SDXL prompting to generate a character and pose separately, then place and relight that posed character onto an input background, all while maintaining character consistency and style! All without a character lora!

Special thanks to tori29umai (on Twitter) for the charaBG and image2body loras, dx8152 (on Twitter and Hugging Face) for the Fusion lora and @DigitalPastel for SDXL workflows which portions of this one is based on.

I made this workflow because my previous workflow lost too much style after RePosing a character. Also my other Fusion workflow's compositing part was waaay too clunky.

Video Tutorial will be made eventually. This one needs it.

Usage:

• Keyframes for video generation

• Panels for comics

• Material for training character loras

• Memes! I dunno ~

Notes:

• Read the notes

• Download the models, which are all linked in the workflow.

• Set the Cache Full File Path, otherwise it won't work!

• Run the workflow ONE GROUP AT A TIME!

• READ THE NOTES

Here's a map of the workflow and what each active part does.

Workflow Map:

Active Workflow Groups:

• SDXL Pose - Generates a dynamic character pose from prompts (optional with input pose image)

• SDXL Character - Generates an idle standing character from prompts (optional with input character image)

• Qwen Character Sheet - Generates a 4-view character sheet from the SDXL character

• Qwen Pose - Extracts the pose mannequin from SDXL Pose

• Qwen RePose - Reposes character to the Qwen Pose using the Character Sheet

• SDXL Refine - Refines with SDXL prompts and loras to reinject SDXL style (optional)

• Compositing - Removes background and places character onto background image

• Qwen Fusion - Relights and casts shadows for the character in the scene.

See example below:

Info Sheet:

Character Sheet:

All of these, except for the background image, are generated in this workflow.

All intermediate images, ARE NOT, outputted by default. You can output the intermediate images by checking 'preview_only' to false.

You can also fetch the most recent intermediate images from the cache folder.

Version 1.1

• Added character and pose input images and switch. Allows you to skip either or both the SDXL pose and character groups.

• Made the SDXL Refine group optional. You can run Qwen RePose then Qwen Fusion, skipping SDXL Refine.

Version 1.0;

• Initial Release!

• Takes prompts and a background image and generates a posed character onto that background image.

Future variants & planned workflows:

• A variant with a pose input images, to aid generating the pose via Control Net.

• A pose input image, use pose ref images to control poses for your generated character.(ADDED)

• A character input image, use SDXL to generate poses for an existing character. (ADDED)

• Versions of all those above, with the compositing group removed. Similar to Lazy RePose.

• A separate bigger compositing workflow, for multiple character and prop placement.

• NSFW versions!

This workflow is time-consuming to run, but once you've got a character going, you can pose that character in almost any way. The RePose part will fail if the pose is too complex. SDXL refine brings back a lot of the style that is lost in Qwen, but its also not perfect.

Regardless, I achieved 90% of what I wanted, and it will serve as a great base for future workflow variants.

Anyhow, enjoy the workflow. Please post if you have any questions or suggestions!

Stay Cheesy Y'all!~
