From Concept to Reality: AI-Driven Chibi Figure Design Workflow Revealed
1. Workflow Overview

Purpose:
Generates production-ready chibi figure designs with facial feature control (PulidFlux) and 4x super-resolution, optimized for 3D printing/packaging.
Core Models:
ReVAnimated_v168 (Anime-style base model)
PulidFlux_v0.9.1 (Precise facial feature binding)
4x_NMKD-Siax_200k (Upscaling)
2. Key Nodes
Node | Function | Installation |
---|---|---|
LoraLoaderModelOnly | Loads custom chibi-style LoRA (0.8 weight) | Manual model placement |
ApplyPulidFlux | Binds facial features to output | Install via |
FaceBoundingBox | Detects face regions in input image | Requires |
Dependencies:
PulidFlux model file (
pulid_flux_v0.9.1.safetensors
) inComfyUI/models/pulid_flux
insightface
library with CUDA support
3. Workflow Structure
Group 1: Model Parameters
Inputs: Prompt (e.g., "programmer CODELIE"), negative prompt
Key Nodes:
DualCLIPLoader
: Dual text encoder (CLIP + T5)EmptyLatentImage
: 768x1024 canvas
Group 2: Pulid Control
Input: Reference face image (e.g.,
Einstein.png
)Process:
FaceBoundingBox
detects face areaApplyPulidFlux
merges facial features
Group 3: Upscaling
Flow: Base image β 4x upscale β 50% downscale β refine
4. Inputs & Outputs
Required Inputs:
Positive prompt (detailed figure description)
Reference face image (.png/.jpg)
Seed (default -1 for auto)
Output:
Final PNG with metadata
Resolution: 1536x2048 β downscaled to 768x1024
5. Notes
β οΈ Requirements:
GPU VRAM β₯8GB (PulidFlux needs CUDA)
Python 3.10+ recommended

π§ Troubleshooting:
PulidFlux errors: Verify model file path
Face detection fails: Ensure clear frontal face in input image
