📖 Extended description

This LoRA was primarily trained on humans and characters, but it works with objects and scenes as well.
The main purpose is to preserve identity — facial features, clothing, style — from the reference image, while using the canny edge map to define contours, composition, and layout.

⚙️ How to use

1. Concatenate two images side by side:

   • Left: reference image (person, character, or object).

   • Right: canny edges (line structure).

2. Add the trigger word refcontrolcanny in your prompt.

3. Adjust LoRA weight (recommended 0.8–1.0) depending on how strictly you want to follow edges.

✅ Example prompt

refcontrolcanny, change canny edges to photo with reference from left
