Qwen Image Edit Plus

Edit images with precise control over text, people, and products. This is Qwen’s 20 billion parameter image editing model that can combine multiple images, preserve identity, and edit text while keeping the original style intact.

What it does

This model takes one or more images and a text prompt, then edits them according to your instructions. Unlike models that make broad, unpredictable changes, this one gives you granular control whether you’re making subtle tweaks or major transformations.

The model is built on Qwen-Image-Edit and trained specifically for multi-image editing. It works best with 1 to 3 input images.

Key features

Multi-image editing

Combine multiple images in creative ways. You can merge people with other people, place people in new scenes, or add products to different contexts. The model understands prompts like “person + person,” “person + product,” and “person + scene.”

For example, you can take a photo of two people and merge them into a single scene with a prompt like “Both people standing together in a park.” The model maintains the identity of each person while creating a natural-looking composite.

Person consistency

The model preserves facial identity across different portrait styles and pose transformations. This makes it great for creating consistent character images, restoring old photos, or generating memes while keeping the person recognizable.

You can transform someone into various artistic styles—like anime, oil painting, or Studio Ghibli—and the person remains identifiable. Change poses, add text overlays, or restore damaged photographs, all while maintaining who they are.

Product poster generation

Turn plain product photos into professional posters. The model maintains product identity while adding creative backgrounds and compositions. It works with everything from physical products to simple logos.

Take a product shot with a white background and transform it into a polished marketing poster with environmental context, lighting effects, and branding elements—all while keeping the product itself accurate and recognizable.

Text editing in both Chinese and English

Edit text directly in images while preserving the original font, size, and style. You can modify content, change fonts, adjust colors, or apply different materials to text. The model handles both simple text changes and complex typography.

Examples include changing “Summer Sale” to “Winter Sale” on a poster while keeping the exact same font and layout, or editing Chinese characters on signage while maintaining the calligraphic style.

ControlNet support

The model works with common ControlNet conditions like depth maps, edge maps, and keypoint maps. This gives you additional control over the structure and composition of your edits.

You can use pose keypoints to change someone’s body position, depth maps to maintain spatial relationships, or edge maps to preserve structural boundaries while making edits.

How it works

The model uses two types of editing:

Appearance editing: Add, remove, or modify specific elements while keeping everything else pixel-perfect. This is for when you want precise, localized changes.

Semantic editing: Make broader creative transformations like style transfers, pose changes, or IP creation. The model can update pixels across the image as long as it preserves the core meaning and content.

Example use cases

Creating character combinations

Take three separate images—a person’s face, a specific outfit, and a desired pose—and combine them into a single cohesive image in whatever style you want. Useful for fashion visualization, character design, or creative compositing.

Restoring old photographs

Bring damaged or faded photos back to life while maintaining the person’s identity and the original character of the image. Fix tears, remove stains, enhance faded colors, and improve clarity without losing the photo’s vintage quality.

Making memes

Add text to photos while preserving the person’s identity and the image’s overall composition. The model handles both short catchphrases and longer text overlays with proper formatting and styling.

Editing posters and marketing materials

Modify both text and images in existing posters while maintaining visual consistency and style. Change product photos, update copy, adjust colors, or swap backgrounds without starting from scratch.

Tips for best results

• For multi-image editing, 1 to 3 input images typically work best. More than that and the model may struggle to maintain consistency across all elements.

• Be specific in your prompts about what should change and what should stay the same. For example, “change the background to a beach but keep the person’s clothing exactly as is.”

• For text editing, mention if you want to preserve or change the font style. The model can either match existing typography or apply new styles based on your description.

• When working with people, reference specific characteristics you want to maintain like “preserve the facial features” or “keep the same hairstyle and expression.”

• Use clear, descriptive language in your prompts. Instead of “make it better,” try “enhance the lighting and add warm sunset tones.”

• For product posters, describe both the product positioning and the desired background or context. The more specific you are, the better the result.
