New -> Ideogram 4

In your workflow swap ideogram4_fp8_scaled.safetensors with vintageBeauties_ideogram4V10.safetensors

• SAMPLER: er_sde, seeds_2/3, res 2s/3s, ddpm, euler

• QUALITY: Default/Turbo

• CFG 2.5-4.5

• CFG Override: 3-5 (0.8-1) - experiment with diff CFG/CFG overrides

• RESOLUTION: up to 1280x1920 (and probably way higher)

For those with less powerful computers:

You can use 1 model workflow (vintageBeauties_ideogram4V10.safetensors only) with IG4-Solo node. It’s way faster and less demanding, but it doesn't quite match a two-model workflow... right up until the inevitable moment you generate something you can never unsee. Example workflows are here and here.

NOT TESTED WITH LORAS!

Previous models:

Flux2Klein9b ULT PRO

• SAMPLER: seeds_3 / exp_heun_2_x0_sde / Euler / Whatever works for YOU

• STEPS: 4-20 (YES 4-20 - you control how much detail/veneer you want)

• CFG: 1-3 (YES 1-3 - you can use NEG prompt now and improve overall consistency)

• RESOLUTION - UP TO 1280x1920

• LESS DEFAULT PUBIC HAIR (use dedicated LORA and/or prompting when needed)

• can generate those male thingies now (on women too)

• works GREAT on img2img - no need for NSFW/"make real" LORAs anymore

Previews in gallery look way worse than the real images!

How to see >REAL< quality (examples: >Flux2Klein< >ZIT< ):

1. Right-click image → Open image in new tab

2. In new tab: again Right-click image → Open image in new tab

3. Click image - it will magnify to it's true resolution

Idea behind Vintage Beauties models:

Real-looking hairy bodies that feel like actual film photos - grainy, soft, a bit imperfect and alive. Visible film grain, gentle glow in bright areas, creamy shadows, vintage lens quirks (like halation and swirl), plus subtle color shifts. Nothing clean, sterile or digital. Just raw, organic, breathing analog vibes. Experimental merges, so not perfect.

• No cherry-picking or upscaling/refining - simple workflow for straightforward evaluation.

• Each image in gallery was generated using the same seed.

• Workflows and prompts are included in the images (dl and drag to ComfyUI)

• Flux Klein 9b v2 is based on FLUX.2-klein-base-9B

• Flux Klein 9b v1 is based on FLUX.2-klein-9B (distilled)

• Both models work with txt2img and img2img

• Both models work with LoRAs (tested with up to 3 + sliders)

Settings for FLUX.2-klein-9B V2 (model for rich natural detail that looks best at ~2 MP ~ full HD)

• SAMPLER: exp_heun_2_x0_sde (top choice for this model)

• STEPS: 20-30

• CFG: 1 (yes, ONE)

Settings for FLUX.2-klein-9B V1 (model for quick generations, but quality is still good)

• SAMPLERS: er_sde, res_multistep, dpmpp_2m_sde, seeds_3

• STEPS: 4 - 9

• CFG: 1 - 1.4

Previous Models:

VintageBeauties ZIT (based on Z_Image_Turbo_bf16)

Sampler/scheduler combos to try:

• dpm2_ancestral / sigmoid_offset (great contrast and shadows, depth, artistic)

• er_sde / ddim_uniform (gives analog look to photo without LORAs)

• lcm_custom_noise / linear_quadratic (gives that special render'ish SD 1.5 artificial look)

Krea:
Play around with the Guidance values between 1 and 13 — though going as high as 20 also works. Weird, but true.

Recommended settings:

• Sampler: dpmpp_2m

• Scheduler: beta

• Steps: 30

• CFG (starting point): 5

Flux:

(v1 and v2) use at least 4.5 STR.

P.S. Use STR 3.5 for comfy backend in swarmui - thanks @snotty for the tip!
