4. Draw a simple sketch for your image.
5. Run “stable-diffusion-webui/webui-user.bat” to open Stable Diffusion Webui in a browser at http://127.0.0.1:7860/.
6. Select a Stable Diffusion checkpoint in the drop down.
7. In txt2img tab, enter your prompt to describe your image. Set Width and Height around 768 ~1024 if you are using a sdxl checkpoint. Set the image ratio the same an the input image. Other settings can be default.
8. Expand ControlNet section. Drag your drawing to the first Single Image. Check “Enable”.
