Source description

Curious what you'll look like when you're older? This simple workflow can show you. It's an aging effect.

Basically, this is a simplified img2img workflow.The main value is that you don't have to waste time setting it up yourself to get the aging effect.

A lot of the online aging effects are either full of ads or cost money, which is a pain.

So, I spent a few minutes and made this one. I've been using it for a few months now, and I often have trouble finding it. I thought it would be more convenient to share it on Civitai.

Unfortunately, I can't use real photos to demo this, but I'm happy with how the workflow turned out. I even gave this workflow to a friend of mine who's an elementary school teacher to generate images of what their students might look like when they grow up. My recommended denoise value is between 0.35 and 0.5.
