⭐ Photo → Anime Workflow

This workflow converts any real photograph into a clean, polished anime-style illustration using my model Illustrious from HaDeS v1.0.12, available for free here:

👉 it works:

• WD14 Tagger analyzes the input photo and generates accurate tags for the prompt.

• ControlNet replicates the pose, proportions, and general composition of the original image.

• Illustrious from HaDeS v1.0.12 transforms the photo into an anime-style artwork with clean lines and consistent shading.

• Face Detailer fixes imperfections and improves facial structure, eyes, and expression.

• Ultimate SD Upscaler adds a subtle 2× upscale for extra sharpness and detail.

Highlights:

✔ Converts any photo to anime
✔ Accurate pose reproduction
✔ Clean lines and stable style
✔ Fully automatic and easy to use
✔ Enhanced facial quality
✔ Crisp final output with upscale

As shown in the previews, the workflow preserves your original look while turning you into a polished anime character.
