New ChatGPT image generation is a breakthrough for consumer level use.

But ComfyUI is a node-based visual system that offers full control and precision. It supports depth maps, normal maps, masks, and more - ideal for turning 3D blockouts into refined concepts.

Unlike prompt-only tools, it enables reusable workflows and consistent results. It’s open source, expandable, and supports custom models, LoRA training, and advanced tools like ControlNets.

Mainstream AI tools (like Midjourney, ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) have built-in filters or limitations to block certain types of content - especially nudity, violence, political themes, or anything deemed “unsafe.”

On top of that, proprietary platforms frequently censor prompts inconsistently or without explanation, due to their closed-source, black-box systems. Even completely harmless inputs can get flagged or denied for unclear reasons.

But with ComfyUI, you're running everything locally on your own machine - so there's no censorship or content filtering applied by a third-party server.

This means:

✅ Access to uncensored models (like NSFW-friendly versions of Stable Diffusion)

✅ Full creative control over what’s generated

✅ No random prompt rejection or mysterious restrictions

✅ Responsibility and freedom - you’re in charge of the output

No coding knowledge is required, but you will need to run a few basic terminal commands during setup — and don’t worry, I guide you through every step.

Once everything is installed, you won’t need to touch code. The workflows themselves are completely visual and node-based using ComfyUI, so you’ll be working with an intuitive drag-and-drop interface — not writing scripts.

You can use Stable Diffusion, Flux, and ComfyUI to generate frame-by-frame outputs from rendered 3D sequence, which can then be stitched together into animation or video. This method can be used to create motion tests, style frames, or concept sequences.

I’ve included this exact workflow in the “3D to Stable Diffusion” package.

These are not true AI video models, so the results are glitchy and inconsistent. Dedicated video workflows are coming soon.

I've been running these workflows on RTX A5000 (24GB VRAM) and GTX 3060 (4GB VRAM)

4GB VRAM is sufficient for Stable Diffusion and SDXL but Flux can't run it.

Recommended Requirements

• GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060 or higher (8GB+ VRAM)
• CPU: Intel i7 / Ryzen 7 or better
• RAM: 32 GB
• Storage: SSD with 100GB+ free space
• Operating System: Windows 10/11 or Linux
• Stable Diffusion Models: ~6-12 GB of VRAM recommended for full ControlNet workflows
• Flux AI Models: Requires high VRAM (12GB+ ideal); slower but higher fidelity

Minimum (For Basic Use)

Can run with limitations (slower speeds, reduced resolution):

• GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1060 (4GB VRAM minimum)
• CPU: Intel i5 / Ryzen 5
• RAM: 16 GB
• Storage: SSD preferred, 50GB+ free
• OS: Windows 10 or Linux

Short answer:

No.

Long answer:

ComfyUI on Mac: YES, but with limitations

ComfyUI can run on Mac, but performance depends heavily on your hardware.

Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3) can run it using MPS (Metal Performance Shaders) instead of CUDA.

Setup is more complex than Windows, and not all nodes/extensions may be compatible.

Some ControlNets and heavy models may crash or run slowly due to limited GPU VRAM or lack of CUDA support.

Stable Diffusion Models: Partial Support

Base models like SD 1.5 and SDXL can work on Mac with MPS backend (Apple Silicon).

Performance is slower than on a CUDA-enabled NVIDIA GPU.

Some advanced features like certain ControlNets or LoRAs may not function properly or require workarounds.

Flux Models: Mostly Incompatible

Flux AI models are very heavy and rely on CUDA acceleration, which is not supported on Mac.

Running them on Mac (even with MPS) is either extremely slow or currently not viable for practical use.

Yes, the tools and outputs can be used in personal or commercial work.

Yes! All purchases include lifetime access to future updates for the product you bought.

That means as tools like ComfyUI, Flux, and Stable Diffusion evolve - or as new techniques, models, or optimizations become available - I’ll be updating the workflows and tutorials accordingly.

You’ll get the latest versions at no extra cost.
