Tips

For people and faces, avoid using DDPM sampler; prefer DPM++ 3M SDE or Euler for better results.

Using a lower CFG scale (1-1.8) produces more realistic images.

Experiment with Lora weights as they can significantly improve results.

Test other settings and share with the community for further optimization.

Hello ♥

for whatever reason you want to show me appreciation, you can: ❤️Ko-Fi❤️

Special Thanks to

badassdragoon2 georgebanjog Mr_fries1111 barytdruck124

Please take a look at their amazing work!

Update v1.0:

if you see when V0.5 was released, you can imagine how hard it was for me to create a better version that is really better in all areas.

This is the result of probably 100 different versions.

  • more Details

  • better colors at low cfg

  • better faces (and more variance) (not perfect)
    For people and faces, you should not use DDPM. Use DPM++ 3M SDE or Euler

Update v0.3:

It's just a small update to fix some issues from v0.1.

It doesn't change every subject, but some improve.

I haven't had a picture in about 1000 pictures where v0.3 wasn't better, so the upgrade is definitely worth it.

I can notice the following improvements:

  • a bit sharper

  • more realistic

  • a bit more creative

  • a bit more possibilities to get nicer hands/faces on full body photos
