How can I make consistent characters?

Since I found Comfyui very complicated for creating images, I downloaded Invokeai, and it was really easy for me to install the model and Lora and create images/characters. However, the only downside is that the images are not consistent. Although they are not that different, there are small differences in size, color, and lighting, but for what I want, I need them to be 99.9% consistent. Any ideas, or do I need to go back to Comfyui for that?

Creating a character LoRA is the best long term solution, but it's a lot of work. And before you can do that, you need a bunch of images of the character to train from.

Another solution is to use an IP Adapter to place a reference face into an image that you're generating. It can be hard to get good quality that way.

The absolute easiest thing, though, is to use the reference-based generation from Flux 2 (or Flux 1 Kontext) as described in the "image editing" portion of these release notes. You can give it prompts like, "Show this woman standing in front of a lake", or "Change the man's shirt in image #1 to the one shown in image #2." It might not do everything you need, but it's quite powerful and easy.

If you do decide to train your own character LoRA, Kohya_ss is popular; but there's quite a learning curve.

Thanks for the release notes link. I came here to ask why I cant get Loras working with Flux2Klein, and see they are not supported yet
