    would you reccomend a detailer Lora? If so which one
    Same question for a realism adding Lora or eye detailer?

    Use any that you like, mostly Illus based, not sure if pony or sdxl Loras will work.
    I try and make sure that raw outputs are good and less Loras are required.

    Stable_Yogi  At the moment all my results look like high res paintings, they are not ugly or anything but not realistic. I added your embeddings, used the same settings, except for the steps, do more steps make it worse?

    serget2 more steps will denoise, some details maybe lost. stay under 30 steps. Share images in gallery if possible.

    Stable_Yogi I just figured smth out, that I am an idiot, apparently I was NOT using this model but a much older version I did not know I had, go figure the images are much better now, except sometimes the eyes they are not always perfect, maybe I need to work on my detailer or add one just for eyes only, will post soon, the other images will probably be in the older versions gallery

    Great checkpoint. This model does a great job on facial variety and doesn't suffer from rigidly making the same face every generation like some other models. The embeddings help somewhat with artifacts, but most images still need touch-ups similarly across all SDXL models.

    One other thing that could use work is breast/nipple variety and versatility. It's hard to get authentic looking breasts even with LORAs in my experience.
