The ComfyUI workflow for easy creation of VN character sprite assets.
1) Run initial workflow with the desired prompt in ComfyUI
Repeat with different seeds until the character looks like what you want.
2) Run Additional workflow in ComfyUI, uploading to it 2 resulting Controlnet Images (Where the character is bigger, upload to Load Canny 1 Node, where the character is smaller upload to Load Canny 2 Node ).
Change the long prompt to the prompt you used for character generation.
Change the short prompt to the sprite variation (Emotion, pose, etc.)
Change the seed to the seed you used to generate initial image.
The resources you will need:

Upscaler: https://civarchive.com/models/147821/realesrganx4plus-anime-6b
ControlNet: https://huggingface.co/xinsir/controlnet-union-sdxl-1.0/tree/main
Nodes should be uploaded by comfyUI automatically.

Getting on the initial_workflow
Workflow does not contain a valid version. Zod error: Validation error: Required at "version"ComfyUI v0.3.58
Try v1.1. please
I get this problem too. with version 1.1 :(
@Aazc4476 Try go to settings - > Validation -> Validate workflows - Uncheck the button.
@HSDHC It didn't work unfortunately, I get this "Some Nodes Are Missing
When loading the graph, the following node types were not found. This may also happen if your installed version is lower and that node type can’t be found.

@Aazc4476 Ok. So. 1) You have 1.0 workflow. Reload 1.1. or 1.2. (6mb file with Frieren cover). 2) This is expected behaviour. Go to Manager- Install missing custom nodes, click all the buttons and you are good to go. 1.2. version images were made from new instance of latest portable + manager without problems.
Just as a follow up to this, I'm pretty new to ComfyUI and had a lot of the same initial problems. Importing workflows is always such a mess, but this one wasn't too bad at all, once I found what the workarounds actually were.
At first I couldn't load the workflow in because of the version issue (disabling validation didn't work), but I could load the sample images and that gave me the same thing.
I couldn't get the nodes to install through the UI (permissions issue I didn't want to sort through), so I manually downloaded them and dropped them into the Custom Nodes folder.
After that ComfyUI-Inspyrenet-Rembg was still not loading correctly, but I found it has some very straightforward install instructions including requirements.
Finally, I just had to swap out the upscaler.
It'll take me some time to chew through and really analyse what this is doing, but it looks very promising. I'm looking forward to playing around with it! Thanks HSDHC.
