This workflow is designed to quickly build a production-ready character reference sheet while keeping identity, wardrobe, and pose/layout as separate controllable inputs.
The workflow follows a simple three-stage process:
1. Wardrobe Reference — Optional
Provide a single outfit/attire image and generate a detailed wardrobe reference sheet. The workflow extracts the clothing, materials, colors, accessories, footwear, layering, and smaller costume details.
You can skip this step and provide your own wardrobe reference instead.
2. Character Face — Optional
Generate a photorealistic character face/headshot to establish the character's identity.
Already have a character? Skip generation and load your own face reference.
3. Final Character Sheet
The face reference and wardrobe reference are combined with a predefined mannequin/pose layout to generate a consistent three-panel character sheet:
Left: Full-body front view
Center: Full-body back view
Right: Large face/head-and-shoulders reference
The mannequin image is used only for composition, pose, scale, and framing. It should not influence the final character's appearance.
Why this workflow?
The main goal is to avoid asking the image model to invent identity + costume + layout simultaneously.
Instead, each component is established separately before the final generation:
Face → Identity
Wardrobe → Costume
Mannequin → Pose & Layout
This makes the final reference sheet much easier to control and gives you reusable assets for subsequent image/video generation.
The wardrobe prompt also uses neutral, bright studio lighting so darker costumes retain their actual colors, fabric textures, straps, seams, leather details, and construction instead of collapsing into black.
Flexible Input
The first two generation stages are completely optional.
You can use:
Generated Face + Generated Wardrobe
or
Your Own Face + Generated Wardrobe
or
Generated Face + Your Own Wardrobe
or
Your Own Face + Your Own Wardrobe
Then feed them into the final character-sheet stage.
