Its main purpose is to transfer pose, style, mood, or composition from one image to your character while preserving essential body and appearance details.
This tool is especially useful when:
you like a specific pose or style from someone else’s photo;
you want to recreate a scene, but with your own model;
you need fast ideas and variations for NSFW content without complex prompts.
The Core of Image-to-Image: How Reference-Based Generation Works
The logic of this tool is simple, yet very powerful:
You upload a reference image, which can represent:
a pose you like,
a successful shooting style,
a specific composition or camera angle.
You then ask the neural network to generate a similar scene, but:
with your own character,
using your model’s face and body,
while preserving important anatomical details.
This is not about copying. It’s about visual inspiration, where the model extracts information from the reference and adapts it to your character.
Models in Image-to-Image: SDXL and General
There are two different models available for this tool, and each serves a different purpose.
SDXL (Safe Work / Not Safe for Work)
Let’s start with SDXL.
This is a heavier, more complex model that works as follows:
you can upload a very large number of references (up to hundreds);
you can define a single global prompt applied to all references;
for each reference, the model generates four images.
There is also a mode switch:
Fast — quicker generation with good quality;
Quality — slower generation but higher quality.
Advanced SDXL Settings
In the Advanced section, additional options are available:
you can select up to three pre-made LoRA models (these are body LoRAs, not character LoRAs);
they allow you to:
increase breast size,
make the body more muscular,
or create a slimmer, lighter physique.
It’s important to understand a key limitation of SDXL:
this model is not designed to preserve a consistent body for a character.
Even if images from a single run look cohesive, the body often:
differs from the reference,
differs from what you want to define as the model’s “canon” appearance.
When and Why to Use SDXL
The examples show that:
SDXL can produce visually interesting shots;
genital anatomy is often rendered better than in General Safe Work;
but overall realism and “liveliness” are lower than with the General model.
Because of this, SDXL is best used:
for experimentation,
for discovering poses, ideas, and angles,
as a reference generator for later work.
A common workflow is to generate images in SDXL and then use them as input references for the General Not Safe for Work model.
General Safe Work / Not Safe for Work: The Main Production Tool
Next, we move to General Safe Work / Not Safe for Work, which is the recommended model for most real-world use cases.
Preparing Input Data
Here, the workflow changes:
you upload the same references whose pose or style you want to replicate;
additionally, you upload an image of your own model, preferably:
showing the full body,
including breasts,
including intimate grooming,
as complete as possible if the scene requires it.
Key recommendation from the lesson:
for General Image-to-Image, it’s better to upload the full body, not just the face, so the model clearly understands which details must be preserved.
Pose and Background Control
General Image-to-Image includes important controls:
the ability to strictly preserve the pose from the reference;
the option to change or keep the background.
When pose preservation is enabled:
the model closely follows the reference composition;
while allowing you to replace the environment.
When these options are disabled:
generation becomes more flexible;
the result remains inspired by the reference, but with variations.
Quality and Limitations of the General Model
The examples clearly show that General Safe / Not Safe for Work:
produces more realistic and lifelike images;
performs best when references are real photos, not AI-generated images;
transfers the character’s face and body very well.
However, there are current limitations:
breasts are rendered well;
genitals may appear slightly blurred or lack fine detail.
If a scene requires extreme focus on intimate anatomy, this tool currently performs weaker. However, upcoming updates are expected to improve this behavior (similar to a “keep pose” function for genitals).
Example Analysis: Why This Tool Is Worth Mastering
Several scenarios are demonstrated:
the reference uses a completely different model, unrelated to your character;
your nude model is provided as input;
the output is a full photoset with your character, in poses and scenes inspired by the reference.
Even when the reference is:
low quality,
compositionally awkward,
poorly shot,
the General model is still capable of:
reconstructing the body,
refining muscle structure,
preserving breast size and proportions,
producing visually strong images.
What to Do Next with the Results
After generation, you’re not limited to this tool. The resulting images can be:
refined using Editor / Combiner;
enhanced with upscaling;
passed through FaceSwap if the face is imperfect;
sent into the Carousel tool to generate variations.
Here, Image-to-Image acts as a bridge between an idea (the reference) and final production content.
Summary and Practical Recommendations
For stable and predictable results, follow this logic:
Primary model — General Safe Work / Not Safe for Work.
References — any images you like (other models, poses, scenes).
Your model image — nude, with all important details visible.
Use SDXL:
for experimentation,
for idea generation,
as a source of additional references.
After generation, don’t hesitate to refine results with other tools.
Image-to-Image is one of the most flexible and powerful tools for NSFW content. Once mastered, it allows you to quickly transform any visual idea into a full photoset with your own model, in the exact style, format, and resolution you need.
