(Also works for any other type of style transfer, but my initial interest was with realism)
In my time experimenting with realism models I've always been disappointed, as I could never get the sort of creativity, variance, and quality I wanted.
But with Krea 2 I've found something interesting. I'm able to make creative stylized images with a model like Illustrious or Anima, and then run a denoised KSampler over these with Krea 2 to get good realistic-looking results while generally retaining the creative features.
Once you get everything configured right I've found the outputs look even better than what Krea 2 is able to generate through prompting alone.
(It is recommended to use realism LoRAs to help push the effect, as Krea 2 might be insufficient by itself.)
AI-generated commentary
AI-generated explanation based on source and configuration details. Suggestions are clearly labeled.
This workflow is for realistic style transfer: give it a creative stylized image, optionally with the prompt used to create it on the manual path, and it can produce a realistic-looking image while generally retaining the image’s creative features.
The Automatic path uses a vision-language model to transfer information from the source image.
The manual path can first use a prompt for realistic style transfer, then feed the resulting image and optionally its prompt into Text Encode (Krea2) to denoise the original image.
Input: a creative stylized image; the manual path can also take the prompt used to generate it.
Output: a realistic-looking image that generally retains the input image’s creative features.
This is the Automatic version of a Krea 2 workflow published by Bvga.
Open the workflow at https://civitai.com/models/2790688?modelVersionId=3176355.
The workflow requires these model files: krea2Raw_v10.safetensors, qwen_image_vae.safetensors, and qwen3vl_4b_bf16.safetensors.
The workflow requires these node packs: comfyui-easy-use (pin 1.3.6), comfyui-kjnodes (pin bc8e4ce4254bcd0050383386ee2f9d753dbf1fa5), comfyui-krea2-text-encoder (pin 38da10b0d4655098d867c14af10093baa76a85c4), RES4LYF (pin 0dc91c00c4c3fb38e7874fcd7a2a327765e8882c), and rgthree-com
Use Automatic for the vision-language-model path; manual prompting may provide stronger realistic transfer but may be less clean.
Suggestion · not verified
For the manual path, use a realistic image as the Text Encode (Krea2) input to reduce stylized characteristics carried over from the original image.

Verify the exact file and source for krea2Raw_v10.safetensors before setup because no source is identified.

There are two workflow approaches to this:
An "automatic" workflow which uses the vision of the text encoder to inject information about the input image directly into the prompt, providing a quick and a fairly accurate transfer, but also injecting some stylized information, so it's not ideal.
A "manual" prompting workflow that provides stronger and more controlled realistic style transfer, but requires the use of LLMs to help with the prompting.
Remaining hardware or download-size estimates are not available yet.
