How to Get Great Results

  1. Step 1

    Establish a solid base image

    Pick a render with the right pose and lighting. Kontext Pro excels at targeted changes, not full scene rewrites.

  2. Step 2

    Guide pose and layout with ControlNet

    Use a pose/depth map to lock framing, then describe the specific change (gear, fabric, lighting) while keeping face/layout intact.

  3. Step 3

    One change per pass

    Swap outfit, adjust color grade, or change background in separate passes to preserve identity and composition.

  4. Step 4

    Use concise negatives when needed

    If artifacts appear, add short negatives like 'no blur, no halos, no extra fingers' and re‑iterate.

Example Prompts
