Why Flux 2 Pro is becoming my favourite AI model
Nano Banana Pro is good - but I’m loving the styling control in Flux 2 Pro

This week I’ve been testing Flux 2 Pro vs Nano Banana Pro.
Nano Banana Pro is incredible for realism and sharpness, but I’ve found it doesn’t always lock in a specific style - especially when you’re generating multiple views from a single image.
Flux 2 Pro, on the other hand, gives me far more consistent styling from the same input. That reliability is what’s pulled me toward it.
First: there are no magic prompts
There isn’t a secret formula here.
This is a process, trial and error. Not a one click Guru trick.
The Plan
Start with:
- An image you’re inspired by
- A style you want to replicate
That reference can be something you’ve created before or an image you want to emulate. The reference I’m using here is one I previously made in Fenestra using this exact approach.
Use Add Anything
It gives access to Flux 2 Pro, the other Flux models, and the Nano Banana variants. Nano Banana Pro is still excellent, but if it struggles to follow a style, Flux 2 Pro is a solid alternative.
For this method, I use Flux 2 Pro end-to-end. In my testing, it produces the best stylised results.
My setup
Create a view → select Add Anything → add your image to the canvas.
The prompt (keep it simple)
“Use this reference image. Use this reference style to transform the style of the image.”
That’s it.
Flux 2 Pro already understands what you want. Over-prompting makes results worse. I also avoid words like create or make - those tell the model to invent something new. This is restyling, not pure generation.
