ComfyUI beginner friendly HunyuanImage-2.1 GGUF Text-to-Image Workflow by Sarcastic TOFU

This is a very simple ComfyUI beginner friendly Text-to-Image workflow that will work with a single HunyuanImage-2.1 GGUF model.

HunyuanImage-2.1 was officially released by Tencent's Hunyuan team in early September 2025, specifically launching its open-source weights and inference code around September 8 and 9. This version is widely recognized for being a "native 2K" model, meaning it was specifically trained to handle high-resolution generation without the common blurring or quality loss seen in smaller models. While a square size of 2048 x 2048 is indeed the ideal standard for a 1:1 aspect ratio, the model is highly flexible and optimized for several 2K-equivalent dimensions. For example, the recommended 2:3 resolution for classic portrait is 1536 x 2304, 3:4 resolution for standard portrait is 1792 x 2304, 16:9 resolution widescreen cinematic shot is 2560 x 1536, while a 4:3 ratio standard landscape shot is best at 2304 x 1792. The original developers of HunyuanImage-2.1 from Tencent mentioned that using resolutions lower than these (such as 1024x1024) may result in visual artifacts or lower quality outputs but in my generations I have found the results to be very acceptable and fine as I shared them with you with this workflow.

You need a Hugging Face account to download your necessary files (Details are mentioned below). Make sure you install GGUF addon for ComfyUI using ComfyUI manager or any other missing nodes you may have and place the correct files in correct places. Also check out my other workflows for SD 1.5 + SDXL 1.0, WAN 2.1, WAN 2.2, MagicWAN Image v2, QWEN, HiDream, KREA, Chroma, AuraFlow, Z-Image Turbo and Flux.

How to use this -

#1. Just select your desired HunyuanImage-2.1 GGUF models first and now

#2. set your desired image dimensions to start

#3. then input your positive and negative prompts.

#4. select how many images you want (Change the number besides the "Run" button)

#5. select image sampling methods, CFG, steps etc. settings

#6. finally press the run button to generate. That's it..

*** This workflow will also function on 1024 Low res equivalents (SDXL resolutions) on low spec systems
