How to run v1.1
Download the bundled Anima-3.8B-v1.1.safetensors checkpoint along with:
qwen_3_06b_base.safetensors
qwen35_4b.safetensors
qwen_image_vae.safetensors
ComfyUI
Install comfyui-anima-3-8B, then place the files here:
ComfyUI/models/
├── diffusion_models/Anima-3.8B-v2.safetensors
├── text_encoders/qwen_3_06b_base.safetensors
├── text_encoders/qwen35_4b.safetensors
└── vae/qwen_image_vae.safetensors
In the workflow:
Load the bundle with anima.3-8B-v1.1.
Load qwen_3_06b_base.safetensors with ComfyUI's CLIPLoader and select stable_diffusion as the type.
Load qwen35_4b.safetensors with Load Qwen3.5 4B (Anima).
Connect all three to anima.3-8B-v2 Prompt, enter one prompt, and send its expanded output to the sampler.
Both text encoders are released after conditioning is produced. The bundled connector stays with the diffusion model because it is used during sampling. Workflow: https://huggingface.co/lylogummy/Anima-3.8B/blob/main/workflows/workflow_1.1.json
