Creating Consistent SFW Photoshoots: Part 3 - Advanced Techniques

This final part covers Image-to-Image for reference-based generation and Sequential Generation for consistent series.

Tool 4. Image-to-Image — Inspiration Through References

The next step is Image-to-Image, a tool for working with visual references.

A particularly powerful technique is used here:

• Find another model with a similar body type or style
• Use their images for inspiration, not copying
• And generate new images with your own character

Workflow Overview

We upload:

• Several reference images
• The face and body images of our character

With the General model, you can:

• Preserve the pose
• Change or keep the background

The result is a series of images that:

• Are clearly inspired by the references
• Are not copies
• While maintaining full character consistency

Combining Tools

An additional advantage: any successful image can be sent directly into Carousel to generate even more variations from stronger, refined frames.

Sequential Generation: Full Consistency Across a Series

Separately, this lesson covers Sequential Generation.

This mode produces a series of images where:

• The character remains the same
• Clothing is preserved
• Accessories and details don't shift between frames

This is especially useful for:

• Stories
• Serial posts
• Visual storytelling

The examples show that with an insufficiently detailed prompt, the model may keep the same pose and only change the location — highlighting once again the importance of detailed action descriptions.

Lesson Summary: Four Practical Ways to Scale Content

We've covered four reliable methods for generating new images from existing ones:

1. Carousel — fast new angles and variations from finished images
2. Photoshoot — quick themed photosets based on face and body references
3. Editor / Combiner — the main tool for scenes, locations, and flexible reference-based work
4. Image-to-Image with references — a way to draw inspiration from other models

All of these tools can be combined, turning one strong image into dozens or hundreds of new ones without losing consistency.
