Meet ProtoVision XL! This model is my "Bob Ross" model, a happy accident that happened when I goofed up some merge settings on my DynaVision XL model and stumbled upon some magic.
So what is ProtoVisionXL? At its core it's a custom built version of NightVision XL, which I then pile multiple fabulous LORAs on top of to create a unique look.
Like all of my other models, merges, embeds and tools, ProtoVisionXL is designed to be easy to use and excels with simple prompts, but is very coherent and can build fabulous scenes with exquisite detail.
ProtoVisionXL is a portrait model, it favors showing human subjects. That's not to say you can't get other art styles, creatures, landscapes and objects out of it, as it's still SDXL at its core and is very capable.
WARNING - DO NOT USE SDXL REFINER WITH PROTOVISION XL
The SDXL refiner is incompatible and you will have reduced quality output if you try to use the base model refiner with ProtoVision XL.

Release Notes v0.6.3.0
With version 6.3.0 I have trained and merged in several detailers that increases overall fidelity, image quality, scene reproduction and gives scenes a more realistic "lived in" feel. The detailer has not changed the flexibility of ProtoVision, it still very much sits somewhere in the middle between DynaVision and it's cartoony aesthetics and NightVision with its focus on realism and photography.
A word of note on sizzle - this model operates best in the 3.5 to 5 CFG range. While you can generate images at 7.5 CFG (the defaults for both A1111 and Comfy for some dumb reason), they're gonna look fried and overbaked and sizzled 🥓 with crushed colors and blown out whites. Lower that CFG down to 5 if you want your colors to pop, or to 3.5 if you want nice neutral color temps that you can toy with to your liking in post.
