Qwen 2.1 turns out to be a fast, high-quality outpainter with a one-prompt workflow
-Silhouette- · reddit · 2026-09-26
A user found that Qwen 2.1 excels at outpainting: paint the empty regions black and prompt it to fill them, and it cleanly extends badly cropped or partially visible images.
- Faster than typical outpainting workflows and handles multiple sides at once — no multi-pass needed
- Recipe: use an Image Pad KJ node (black padding) with the prompt "enlarge image to fill empty canvas, keep the background"; extra detail hints before/after are respected
- Occasional bad results are fixed by re-running or reducing padding
