Tips

Use simple prompts.

Avoid keywords like masterpiece, best quality, 8k, intricate, high detail as they do not produce appreciable change.

Use simple negatives or small negative embeddings for more realistic looks.

Add 'asian, chinese' to negative prompts if looking for ethnicities other than Asian.

Light, shadows, and details are excellent without extra keywords.

Avoid 'cinematic' for a natural effect.

Avoid using '1girl' as it tends to push an anime style.

Too much description of the face often results in worse images.

For fantasy-like output, use 2M Karras Sampler.

No extra noise-offset needed, but you can use it if desired.

No VAE needed but using one can help with more vibrant colors.

Version Highlights

Lets say we reached the final Version, tried to improve male understanding, hands and of course photorealism

Natural Sin Final and last of epiCRealism

Since SDXL is right around the corner, let's say it is the final version for now since I put a lot effort into it and probably cannot do much more.

I tried to refine the understanding of the Prompts, Hands and of course the Realism.
Let's see what you guys can do with it.

Thanks to @drawaline for the in-depth review, so i'd like to give some advices to use this model.
[expand to see Advices]

Advices

  • use simple prompts

  • no need to use keywords like "masterpiece, best quality, 8k, intricate, high detail" or "(extremely detailed face), (extremely detailed hands), (extremely detailed hair)" since it doesn't produce appreciable change

  • use simple negatives or small negative embeddings. gives most realistic look (check samples to get an idea of negatives i used)

  • add "asian, chinese" to negative if you're looking for ethnicities other than Asian

  • Light, shadows, and details are excellent without extra keywords

  • If you're looking for a natural effect, avoid "cinematic"

  • avoid using "1girl" since it pushes things to render/anime style

  • to much description of the face will turn out bad mostly

  • for a more fantasy like output use 2M Karras Sampler

  • no extra noise-offset needed, but u can if you like to 😉
