Loader on the upstream QwenImage21Pipeline, detection and dispatch for the Qwen21 type, reference catalog entry with preview, and the plumbing the 64-channel RGBA latent space needs: the 16x VAE joins the frame-axis list, the decode squeeze accepts four channels, and opaque RGBA decodes collapse to RGB unless a pixel has alpha below 128. The text encoder is byte-identical to Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct and resolves through the shared registry. The pipeline class stays off the Qwen 1.x controlnet path and out of the 1.x probe fingerprint.
Anima-2.9B is a depth-expanded finetune of Anima 1.0 Base carrying 40
transformer blocks against the base repo's 28. The reference entry points at
the Diffusers conversion. Single-file releases load through the native loader:
TransformerSpec gains an infer_config hook, the Anima spec uses it to size
num_layers to the block indices in the file, and model_anima routes a
checkpoint-selected safetensors through the loader with the remaining
components from the base repo.
Add the official Anima 1.0 Aesthetic and Turbo releases in diffusers
format. The previous turbo entry pointed at an unofficial build (base
with a fused community turbo lora); the official distilled checkpoint
replaces it.
- reference-base.json: add anima 1.0 aesthetic
- reference-distilled.json: point anima 1.0 turbo at the official v1.0
- add reference previews, remove the replaced turbo preview
Krea 2 is a 12.9B single-stream flow-matching DiT trained from scratch, using a Qwen3-VL-4B text encoder and the Qwen-Image VAE. The transformer is vendored as a diffusers ModelMixin whose module tree mirrors the checkpoint, so weights load with no key conversion; the pipeline ports the reference encode, flow-matching denoise, and VAE decode. The text encoder is shared at runtime via the existing dedup registry, so Base and Turbo reuse one Qwen3-VL-4B copy.
Covers text-to-image, image-to-image, native LoRA, and the single-file UNET override. Also completes SD.Next's partial Qwen-Image VAE support (5D decode input and TAESD preview mapping) that K2 shares.
