Anima Compact Controlnet + Facedetailer Workflow

V4 Update :

• Added Metadata Saver for easy CivitAi uploads : You won't have to add resources manually anymore

• Added Group bypasser : Now You can enable/disable controlnet or facedetailer utilites by one click

Downloading Metadata Saver :

Open your ComfyUI/custom_nodes folder, type CMD in the address bar and run:

git clone https://github.com/xxmjskxx/ComfyUI_SaveImageWithMetaDataUniversal

After installation, restart ComfyUI and load the workflow.

V3 Update :

• Added a FaceDetailer node. It detects, re-renders, and re-attaches faces to the generated image, resulting in sharper and more detailed faces overall.

• You can Increase bbox_threshold and drop_size to reduce detection of small/background faces.

• All detectors and the SAM model come with the node once you install it from the ComfyUI Library, so you won't need any external resources.

V2 Update :

Since the Anima ControlNet node was recently updated, the older version will no longer work if you update your ComfyUI.

So, I had to update this workflow to make it compatible with the latest version.

ControlNet has added a new "Model Patch" input. I've added the required node, but you will need to download the necessary models and place them in your:

ComfyUI/models/model_patches/

Download them from here:

Additional Improvements

• Added a Size Selector to easily switch between popular image sizes and flip the dimensions.

• Added an Image Comparer (On top the Save Image node)

• Added a Stack LoRA Loader.

• Moved a few things around to make the workflow more compact and easier on the eyes.

If You don't need the controlnet just select the yellow nodes and press Ctrl+B to bypass them , then it would be a simple Text to Image workflow.

A small, clean, and lazy-friendly Anima workflow for those who don't want to play "Where is that damn node?" every time they want to change something.

I made this workflow to keep the important stuff close together:
✅ Easy checkpoint switching
✅ Quick character/model changes
✅ Simple prompt editing
✅ Fast sampler and generation setting adjustments
✅ Less scrolling, less node hunting, more creating

The idea is simple: everything you actually touch while experimenting is right in front of you. No giant spaghetti workflow with 500 nodes

Just open it, pick your model, change your character/prompt, tweak your settings, and generate.

Required Model:

You need to download the Anima ControlNet-LLLite model first and place it this path:

ComfyUI/models/controlnet

Download:

This workflow uses the Anima LLLite ControlNet setup, so make sure the model is installed before running it.

Quick heads-up: CivitAI did that funny thing before where my other workflow straight-up disappeared into the void. 💀
I’ve uploaded it again, but if this happened to this one once more , just grab one of the images, they contain the workflow.

Have fun creating!
