🛠️ 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. I have no plans to implement additional features.
⚠️ 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.

I was able to get SCM-CFG working just fine like when I first posted the workflow by not changing the settings. Pretty annoying after spending more hours troubleshooting it. The remaining problem was the heavy saturation (with Anima) after the update. I ended up adding (at Gemini's suggestion) a CFG Norm node set to .98 for the initial image generation and am using the Wan 2.1 VAE instead of the normal qwen vae. This has helped me tone down the overly saturated colors.
Going forward, I will have a separate workflow for Anima. This will keep the workflow cleaner (IMO). The next Anima version will be stripped down to just do the image, upscale, and 3 detailers for now. I think the other stuff isn't needed.
Just a BIG thank you for your work. I've been testing almost every single iterations since what... v13? and it was a blast. I've never had such fun in months. So thank you very much! I can't wait to test v18 as it seems to be perfectly aligned with all I was wishing for! (still am looking forward to any ideas you'll come up with down the road with v19, v20... etc)
