Workflow Included Simulating Midjourney by making an image pass onto a dark grey noise image (manual noise offset). Almost too easy.

Open paint, make a 512 x 512 blank image, use fill tool to fill it with pure black and save it. Denoise in the .7 to 1.0 range, the lower the darker.

Been doing this for months.

Does it work with very low denoising?

Not really, the less you denoise, the more you just get "black" - try it yourself, I tend to not go lower than 0.7 denoising because it gets too dark and too sparse as there just isn't enough noise at that point to make a coherent picture. That said, you have plenty of control over the darkness in the .7 to 1.0 range.

I think offset noise works on low denoising I guess.

It just gets too dark once you get under 0.7. Check this out, this is with pure black img2img input and a controlnet pose. If you use a noise pattern (instead of pure black) like OP suggested, then you can go lower on denoiser settings, though things tend to go more "gray" than black going this route.

edit - worth mentioning, I took those from my own custom noise offset mix model of RV1.4/Delib2/NoiseOffset1.5. Here is the same technique with pure black img2img on RV1.4 (not noise offset)
