Flux 1 Pulid
Flux 1 Pulid is an identity-preserving FLUX.1 portrait workflow built around PuLID conditioning. It uses a supplied face or person reference to anchor recognizable facial characteristics while allowing the prompt to change pose, clothing, background, lighting, camera treatment, and artistic style in the newly generated image.
Use it for character sheets, campaign portraits, profile variations, and creative scenes where the same person must remain visually recognizable. Select a clear reference with unobstructed facial detail, then describe the new composition independently; the identity reference defines who appears, while the prompt defines where they are, what they are doing, and how the image should look.
Highlights
- Facial identity preservation. Carries recognizable facial structure and appearance from the supplied person reference.
- New-scene portrait generation. Places the anchored identity into different poses, settings, clothing, and compositions.
- Style-flexible identity control. Maintains who the subject is across photographic and illustrative treatments.
- Reference-prompt separation. Uses the face reference for identity while written direction controls the rest of the visual scene.

When to Use
| ✅ Good fit | ❌ Consider alternatives |
|---|---|
| The project needs this exact generation or editing route | The intended task belongs to video, audio, or 3D media |
| Available references match every required local field | Required source assets or rights are unavailable |
| The brief can specify composition, color, and finish | Output must be deterministic at pixel level |
| Supported dimensions and formats fit final placement | Delivery requires unsupported canvas specifications |
| An asynchronous generated image fits production | A live frame-synchronous response is mandatory |
Prompt Guide
Write a complete visual brief: identify the subject and references, define composition and viewpoint, describe lighting, palette, materials, typography, and finish, then list exact preservation constraints. FLUX.2 Klein does not rely on prompt upsampling, so use clear descriptive sentences rather than sparse keywords.
