F42 SDXL – Because why choose when you can have both?

Can’t decide between photorealism and anime? Good. Don’t.

F42 SDXL is a glorious Frankenstein’s monster of my favorite models – merging hyper-realistic portraits with crisp anime vibes like it’s no big deal.

Best samplers:

For anime, go with Euler a – smooth, clean, and stylized

For photorealism, use DPM++ 2M Karras – sharp, natural, detailed

V2 runs buttery smooth with CFG 2.4 + 10 steps – yes, really.

Less waiting. More creating. ⚡️

Example prompts to get you started:

Photorealism (portrait):ultra detailed portrait of a woman with freckles and silver hair, soft natural lighting, realistic skin texture, shallow depth of field, 85mm lens, soft background blur

Anime Style:A breathtaking, high-quality anime masterpiece in a whimsical art style inspired by Katsuhiro Otomo. anime girl with pastel pink hair, sailor uniform, standing in a blooming cherry blossom park, vibrant colors, detailed line art, 2D style, anime shading

Sci-fi Concept Art:futuristic cityscape at sunset, glowing neon lights, flying cars, epic atmosphere, ultra-detailed, sci-fi illustration, concept art style
