Qwen Image 2512 Text-to-Image Workflows

Overview

Qwen Image 2512 is the latest (December 2025) text-to-image model from the Qwen family. It uses a vision-language model (Qwen2.5-VL) as the text encoder and generates high-quality images from natural language prompts. Two workflow approaches:

  • QwenImageIntegratedKSampler — All-in-one node (recommended for simplicity)
  • Separate component loading — UNETLoader + CLIPLoader + VAELoader + standard KSampler (more flexible)

Models

Standard Components

| Component | Node | Model | Notes |

|-----------|------|-------|-------|

| UNET | UNETLoader | qwen_image_2512_fp8_e4m3fn.safetensors | FP8, not currently installed — download if needed |

| CLIP | CLIPLoader (type=qwen_image) | qwen_2.5_vl_7b_fp8_scaled.safetensors | Shared across all Qwen models, in clip/ |

| VAE | VAELoader | qwen_image_vae.safetensors | Qwen-specific VAE (242MB) |

Fine-tuned Variants (Installed)

| Model | Path | Focus |

|-------|------|-------|

| qwenImageEditRemix_v10 | diffusion_models/qwenImageEditRemix_v10.safetensors | General-purpose remix |

| qwenUltimateRealism_v11 | UNETLoader path | Product photography, hyper-realistic |

| copaxTimeless | UNETLoader path | Ultra-realistic portraits |

| qwnImageEdit_v16Bf16 | UNETLoader path | Abliterated (uncensored) |

Lightning LoRAs

4-Step Lightning (General Qwen / txt2img)

{
  "class_type": "LoraLoaderModelOnly",
  "inputs": {
    "model": ["<unet_node>", 0],
    "lora_name": "Qwen-Image-Lightning-4steps-V1.0.safetensors",
    "strength_model": 1.0
  }
}

Settings: steps=4, cfg=1.0, sampler=euler, scheduler=simple, denoise=1.0

8-Step Lightning (Higher Quality)

{
  "class_type": "LoraLoaderModelOnly",
  "inputs": {
    "model": ["<unet_node>", 0],
    "lora_name": "Qwen-Image-Lightning-8steps-V1.0.safetensors",
    "strength_model": 1.0
  }
}

Settings: steps=8, cfg=1.0 (or 2.5 for character detail), sampler=euler, scheduler=simple

Sampler Settings

| Preset | Steps | CFG | Sampler | Scheduler | Denoise | LoRA | Notes |

|--------|-------|-----|---------|-----------|---------|------|-------|

| Lightning 4-step | 4 | 1.0 | euler | simple | 1.0 | Lightning-4steps | Fastest, good quality |

| Lightning 8-step | 8 | 1.0 | euler | simple | 1.0 | Lightning-8steps | Better detail |

| Lightning character | 8 | 2.5 | euler | simple | 1.0 | Lightning-8steps | Best for portraits |

| Standard | 50 | 4.0 | euler | simple | 1.0 | none | Official ComfyUI |

| Golden quality | 50 | 4.5 | euler | simple | 1.0 | none | Community best |

| Character composition | 30 | 4.0 | euler_ancestral | beta | 1.0 | none | Multi-character scenes |

| CopaxTimeless | 30 | 4.0 | res_multistep | sgm_uniform | 1.0 | none | Ultra-realistic |

| UltimateRealism | 30 | 7.5 | euler | simple | 1.0 | none | Product photography |

ModelSamplingAuraFlow

For standard (non-lightning) presets, apply flow matching shift:

{
  "class_type": "ModelSamplingAuraFlow",
  "inputs": { "model": ["<unet_or_lora>", 0], "shift": 3.1 }
}

Shift=3.1 is the standard value for Qwen Image. Not needed with lightning LoRA (baked into the distillation).

Resolutions

Qwen operates at ~1.6 megapixels natively:

| Aspect | Resolution | Use Case |

|--------|-----------|----------|

| Square | 1328x1328 | General |

| Portrait 3:4 | 1104x1472 | Portraits |

| Portrait 2:3 | 1056x1584 | |

| Portrait 9:16 | 928x1664 | Phone format |

| Landscape 4:3 | 1472x1104 | Landscape scenes |

| Landscape 3:2 | 1584x1056 | |

| Landscape 16:9 | 1664x928 | Widescreen |

| Ultra portrait | 1536x2048 | Tall format |

| Video-ready | 832x480 | For WAN 2.2 FLF pipeline |

Approach 1: QwenImageIntegratedKSampler (All-in-One)

The QwenImageIntegratedKSampler custom node handles model patching, conditioning, sampling, and output in a single node. Simplest workflow — just 4 nodes for model loading + 1 integrated sampler + 1 save.

Node Inputs

Required:
  - model: MODEL (from UNETLoader)
  - clip: CLIP (from CLIPLoader, type=qwen_image)
  - vae: VAE
  - positive_prompt: STRING
  - negative_prompt: STRING
  - generation_mode: "文生图 text-to-image" or "图生图 image-to-image"
  - batch_size: INT (default 1)
  - width: INT (default 0, step 8)
  - height: INT (default 0, step 8)
  - seed: INT
  - steps: INT (default 4)
  - cfg: FLOAT (default 1)
  - sampler_name: euler, dpmpp_2m, etc.
  - scheduler: simple, sgm_uniform, beta, etc.
  - denoise: FLOAT (default 1)

Optional:
  - image1-5: IMAGE (reference images for i2i or multi-ref)
  - latent: LATENT
  - controlnet_data: CONTROL_NET_DATA
  - auraflow_shift: FLOAT (default 3)
  - cfg_norm_strength: FLOAT (default 1)

Outputs:
  [0] IMAGE — generated image
  [1] LATENT — output latent (optional)
  [2] IMAGE — scaled input image (for i2i)

}

Approach 2: Separate Component Loading (Standard Pipeline)

More flexible — allows inserting additional processing nodes between stages.

Pipeline Flow

UNETLoader → [LoraLoaderModelOnly] → [ModelSamplingAuraFlow (shift=3.1)] → MODEL
CLIPLoader (qwen_image) → CLIP
VAELoader → VAE

CLIPTextEncode (positive) → CONDITIONING
ConditioningZeroOut → negative CONDITIONING

EmptyLatentImage (1024x1344) → LATENT

KSampler → VAEDecode → SaveImage

  "10": { "class_type": "SaveImage", "inputs": { "images": ["9", 0], "filename_prefix": "qwen_t2i_hq" }}
}

Negative Conditioning

Always use ConditioningZeroOut for Qwen txt2img:

{
  "class_type": "ConditioningZeroOut",
  "inputs": { "conditioning": ["<positive_cond>", 0] }
}

Or use an empty string in CLIPTextEncode — but ZeroOut is more explicit and reliable.

QwenImageDiffsynthControlnet

For ControlNet support with Qwen models. Patches the model with a DiffSynth control signal:

Required Inputs:
  - model: MODEL
  - model_patch: MODEL_PATCH (from DiffSynth ControlNet loader)
  - vae: VAE
  - image: IMAGE (control image)
  - strength: FLOAT (default 1.0)

Optional:
  - mask: MASK

Outputs:
  [0] MODEL (patched)

DiffSynth ControlNets support: canny, depth, inpaint only (NOT pose).

Concept/Style LoRAs (Installed)

Located in loras/Qwen/:

  • style/ — Figure makers, reality transform, panel painter
  • concept/ — Various concept LoRAs
  • poses/ — Pose-specific LoRAs
  • character/ — Character enhancement
  • anime/ — Anime style LoRAs
  • tool/ — Utility LoRAs (anything2real, gaussian splash)
  • equirectangular projection/ — 360 panorama LoRA

Apply with LoraLoaderModelOnly:

{
  "class_type": "LoraLoaderModelOnly",
  "inputs": {
    "model": ["<unet_or_lightning_lora>", 0],
    "lora_name": "Qwen\\concept\\hinaQwenImageAsianMixLora_v2.safetensors",
    "strength_model": 0.8
  }
}

Prompt Style

Natural language, 1–3 sentences. Be descriptive:

Good: "Professional portrait of an Asian woman in her late 20s, wearing a cream linen blazer at a Tokyo rooftop café during golden hour, holding a matcha latte, editorial fashion photography, shot on Sony A7III 85mm f/1.4"
Bad: "1girl, cafe, blazer, matcha"

Tips:

  • Put text to render in quotes within the prompt
  • "photograph" works better than "photorealistic"
  • Negative prompts: use NLP-style descriptions, not keyword spam (or just use ZeroOut)

VRAM Considerations

| Config | VRAM | Notes |

|--------|------|-------|

| FP8 UNET + fp8 CLIP + VAE | ~17-18GB | Fits comfortably on RTX 4090 |

| bf16 UNET (edit model) | ~10GB UNET + 7GB CLIP | Also fits well |

  • Always clear_vram before switching to Qwen from another model family
  • Lightning 4-step is extremely fast (~3-5s per image)

Tips

  • QwenImageIntegratedKSampler is the simplest approach for basic txt2img — one node handles everything
  • For LoRA stacking or ControlNet, use the separate component pipeline instead
  • The integrated sampler's auraflow_shift defaults to 3 (close to the recommended 3.1) — adjust only if needed
  • For video pipeline output (feeding into WAN FLF), set resolution to 832x480
  • CopaxTimeless pick: res_multistep + sgm_uniform at CFG 4.0 for ultra-realistic results
  • Multiple concept LoRAs can stack — reduce individual strength to 0.5-0.7 when combining

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take artokun/qwen-txt2img from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
