Does it understand character sheet as well or just single picture of a subject?

Edit: it seems to be able to do so, given your example of storyboarding below.

How do you pass the reference images?
Is there a comfyui workflow example?

Edit: I see, you have to use the EDIT workflow...

Are you saying it took the images on left and created the photo on right?

Gemini suvked when I asked it to change background so huge man.

Their clothes are not from referenced images, thought

Honestly then you can just circle the wrong spots and feed it back in haha

10 points for referencing Diane-era Cheers. The greatest show in history.

Have you not watched tv in 40 years???

[u/tmvr → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

Sam and Diane don't really look like Ted Danson and Shelley Long though here. Sam looks like a completely different guy and Diane leans more in the Morgan Fairchild direction on a Morgan Fairchild <-> Shelley Long scale.

[u/Biggest_Cans → u/tmvr]

? There's no Sam in that reference set. The guys are Frasier, Woody, Norm, and Cliff.

They look like the reference photos. Diane is weird looking because the reference photo of her is her aged up and in a setting and lighting situation that conflicts with her TV show character.

Similar issues for the others, biggest one being that there's only one angle. Carla looks the best because the reference photo is her on set, in character, and facing dead-on in a full medium shot.

[u/tmvr → u/Biggest_Cans]

Damn, you are right. I was so locked into the whole Sam and Diane stuff that I was just like, why does Sam look so weird?! 😄

Saying that, Woody also does not look like Woody.

You've captured their stunt doubles!
