    Hey you all and welcome to the ultimate journey in SDXL realism!

    IMPORTANT NOTE:

    The models that will follow on this page are NOT plain merges of some popular or already overtrained models, but a result of a year-long fine tuning and testing of an original model that I use daily for professional purposes (along with other tools, of course).

    This will be the story about evolution, so most of the models that I'll upload will be the next step forward (according to my needs at that point in time), usually on top of the previous one. There won't be any spamming or making of "daily" models with a purpose to earn cheap clicks.

    The full story behind the veil and all improvements will be posted along each model in the "About this version" section on the right side of this page >>>

    Despite some different model names, which represent slightly different approaches, they will all be posted on this page, under the Odd Reality Evolution moniker.

    Please support my work if you can: 0x4b320521e2d3ff7eb572ca0d10b29d0b2382d6a0 (USDT-ERC20 network)

    Why crypto, you might ask? Because the usual donation and support sites (and all the subjects in between) are taking WAY too much money for themselves!

    Thanks!

    Let's do some work now. Since this is the first public model after many previous internal ones, I'm posting the description I wrote for myself when it was made... some things may sound fuzzy, but the first two models that I've uploaded were created in February/March 2025, so I don't remember much more info besides what I wrote at that moment.

    Here are my "what's new" writings about the first model made many months ago:

    • Focuses more on human characters than artistic/fantastic details

    • Better subject/color separation (less material/color bleeding)

    • Better anatomy overall, with more natural facial expressions

    • The best possible hands compared to other SDXL models (even better with detailers + proper LoRA)

    • Usually needs a bit more steps than with similar Sampler/Scheduler combos used before

    • Sharper, more detailed and balanced

    • Better prompt adherence, both positive and negative

    • More realistic lighting and shadows

    • Better background stability with more details

    • Much more NSFW than previous models (including new elements and poses), frequently requires clothing descriptions to cover the body (note: this "flaw" was corrected later, among other stuff)

    Samplers/Schedulers: [DPM++] 2Sa AlignYourSteps/Karras @35-50 steps - 2M/3M SDE Karras/Expo/Poly @40-50 - 2Sa KL Optimal @40-45

    Medium CFG values should be your starting point (6-8), and you can expand and experiment from there.

    Hands, Face, Body parts... detailers are VERY welcome, as they can significantly improve the final images! (note: as far as I'm concerned, detailers are a MUST with any SDXL model)

    Sample images may not represent full potential of the presented model, but are just some good examples from my testing database.

    Please have in mind that the latest uploaded model is not the best one in this line, but just one of the models I've marked as valuable "evolutionary step" in my long journey. Many more will follow...

    Since I've put A LOT of time in evolving these models, PLEASE don't sell, merge, share on other sites, or make any kind od mess with them :)

    If you have anything significant to say or ask about my models, you can DM me here, and we can continue later on Discord if we find the topic interesting for further discussion.

    Cheers and see you again soon...

    Description

    This is the next model evolution cooked with slightly different approach to training and mixing, with the main focus on realism (at some cost in artistic elements like painting, drawing, cartoons...). I took a few steps back at that point, retrained some "questionable" parts and added a few LoRAs.

    Noticeable changes:

    • Much better prompt adherence

    • Overall image quality and balance are a bit better

    • Way less hallucinations, random backgrounds or non-prompted details

    * Occasional unstable images can appear, with excellent framing and quality, but also some bad elements or details > this can be resolved with simple step number adjustment (a few more or less steps will usually solve the problem)
