NOTE: If using on the generator, I highly recommend ticking: Enhanced Compatibility
as prompt, the following is much better with this model.

My Realistic Pony model is available on the generator:
https://civarchive.com/models/515034/jib-mix-pony-realistic
And my Realistic Illustrious model
If you like this model, check out my New Photo Realistic Illustrious model on the generator: https://civarchive.com/models/1255024/jib-mix-illustrious-realistic
I will try to keep this model in the onsite generation list.
I try and look at every image you post and award 80-120 buzz to images I really like.
This is a Merge model of many of my favorite realistic SDXL Models (and some more artistic models put in for style and consistency) and I really like the output it makes.
Recommended settings:
Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karrass
Steps: 8-35
CFG: 2-5 (I Often use CFG 3)
with DPM++ SDE you can go as low as 4 steps. with a CFG of 2.2
Version 16 Aphrodite:
More photographic realistic default look.
Increased background details
Better Prompt following
Better tasteful NSFW nudes without hurting detail too much
Version 16 Aphrodite XXX:
Much Better NSFW capabilities at the cost of some loss of detail and art styles.
Version 14:
A modest increase in details and contrast.
Recommend
Version 13:
After the very poor launch of SD3 I decided SXDL still had more to give and bring you this improved merge I have been tweaking for a good while now. FP32 version coming soon!
This version seems to benifit from a lower CFG than previous versions 2-5 CFG seems good. (2.7 seems the sweet spot for portraits)
Version 12:
This version has better brighter colours and contrast plus better prompt following.
Don't forget to also check out my new Pony Model: https://civarchive.com/models/515034/jib-mix-pony-realistic?modelVersionId=598011
This is likely to be the last SDXL model merge/finetune I publish as SD3 will be out to tune Next week!
Version 11:
Bringing you another merge of great models I like and doing 100's of A/B tests to pick the model that gives the best images. This is not a lightning model as I prefer quality over speed.
This is likely be my 2nd to last SDXL model merge/finetune I publish as SD3 will be out to tune soon.
and also tested them quite a lot with the the new Hyper Lora (8 Step).
Version 10: Is merged with the SDXL Lighting Lora. (If you want to do non photographic artworks like Watercolours, you should stick with version 9 I think.)
You need to use a CFG of :CFG: 1-2
and can use steps a low as: Steps: 4-8
and DPM++ SDE Sampler is best.
Version 9: Merged with some good prompt following models, much better male bodies.
Version 8: I have merged with some models newer models, tried to work on skin texture (but it is still not where I want it to be) and increasing the background details in images.
Version 7: I have merged with some models that claim to have improved Prompt Adherence (you still needs some cherry-picking of images, it is no Dalle.3) and some other new models with styles I liked the look of.
Version 6 has better/more detailed backgrounds and higher image contrast as well as some better NSFW capabilities. It also seems to give a wider variety of poses and image variations.
Version 5 has been merged with a few different SDXL eye Improvement Loras and several NSFW Loras. then merged back with older versions of the model and some Anime and Artistic models to bring back the artistic capabilities.
Version 4 incorporates newer released flexible models and seems to improve composition, skin texture, and artistic styles.
Version 3 incorporates hassansdxl_v10 NSFW model at a low 0.15.
And improves NSFW generations without affecting (probably Improving) overall consistency and artistic flare.
Version 2 incorporates
RundiffusionXL_beta
Colossus Project XL
and improves skin texture and overall composition.
Version 1 is a Merge of:
JuggernautXL_version6Rundiffusion
realvisxlV20_v20Bakedvae
wowXLV2_v2
Thinkdiffusionxl_v10
nightvisionXLPhotorealisticPortrait
MOHAWK_v14
It is quite good at NSWF , prompting (boobs out) (naked) will usually be enough, but can be improved with the https://civarchive.com/models/117603/finenude
Lora to add better detail.
Finally, a few recommendations for the settings:
Sampler: I like the Heun Sampler but it is slower than most.
Steps: 30-40
CFG: 6-7 (Often use CFG 7 but 6 can look a bit pleasing/natural for photo-realistic images.)
Including: "35mm photograph, film, bokeh, professional, 4k, highly detailed" gives very good skin details in portraits.
I like to put the token (Bokeh) In the negative prompt to remove some blurring and improve the image.
Most of my sample Images have used the SXDL Styles Selector on the Photographic prompt injection setting.
I like to give all my output images at least a 2x upscale with img2img with high steps and a 0.15 - 0.6 Denoising strength.
Some times I the do a 4K upscale with Ultimate tiled upscale script extension.

oh hell yea J1B, can't wait to try the two new checkpoints, looks very promising
Thanks, If you need to wait for onsite generation someone at Civitai should notice and do their "magic" to swap out the generator model within the next day, it will only be one of them available on the generator I would think as they are very tight for space on their GPU's for now.
@J1B oh no worries, i generate locally but my network speed is slow so it takes a couple hours to get ~13GB downloaded. I'm playing with them right now, and they are looking pretty good. the NSFW model is certainly visually different than the rest of the series, even without NSFW in the pic.
edit: but boy is it hard to keep clothes on with that NSFW checkpoint lmao
As always, great! Excellent model! Thank you very much!
Not currently, Civitai do not have enough GPU's to run all models and are limited to having around 150 models on the generator at one time, picked by the staff members. They are planning on moving to a weekly voting system by users for the available models in the future.
A truly great model...
Thank you for the time and effort you put in. A great checkpoint to use. Impressive results with both long and short prompts.
Currently revisiting my previous works with this version and it gets better and better! Really good job (again) for this model <3
Is there an alternative to this model? Something that can run on civitai ?!
v16.0 - Aphrodite is available on Civitai onsite generator. If you mean "v16.0 - Aphrodite XXX"? no that version is not available atm, I am not sure what the closest checkpoint available would be that is available, I will have a think .
A great checkpoint to use, produces good results straight from the box. Really good with different painting styles, giving a good depth that makes the images stand out. My go to model.
So far in v.16 the best "all tasks checkpoint" for SDXL. Has an unique ability always to create nice variety of compositions and pick the best aesthetic in its bank available and transport emotions greatly. You might choose for one or other task a specialist checkpoint (example... Midnight v.5 for dark scenery and macro or RealVisdXL5.0 for greenery and water), but it lands not far behind a "master" (non of the masters I checked were universal) in specific case, and it outperforms the market with quality and consistency. Reference.
I try almost every new model that appears on civitai. EpicRealism was my favorite for a long time, but after I got the Jib Mix, it instantly became number 1 in SDXL models. Thank you very much. Amazing work.
Not all images in the gallery are good, Jib Mix can create much better results.
What are the benefits/drawbacks for the FP32 version of v16?
fp32 definitely bigger, requires more ram to load, so its also slower to process. fp16 half the size for (they say) unnoticable difference, but twice (i think) as fast fp8 is fastest, but its quite rare
@menyan1381 Yeah, fp32 is almost sub pixel differences on most seeds, sometimes it can come out nicer with less hallucinations or extra limbs ect, not sure if there is much speed difference (about 0.10 seconds in my testing), if you have the spare Vram and want the top top quality use fp32 but for everyday images fp16 will look almost identical most of the time.
what is that brush icon next to v16 aphrodite? (not the XXX version), i always thought its inpainting model, but now i'm terribly doubtful of my rude assumption, as v16 really suit my taste
It means you can use the model with the CivitAI image generator.
is it just me who is getting "A tensor with all NaNs was produced in VAE." Though A1111 fixes it on its own, but it causes crashes for me when I load the checkpoint without medvram-sdxl.
Note that I run A1111 without medvram-sdxl exclusively when I'm not planning to use LoRA and just run prompts directly on the model.
Hmm, I have seen that before in Automatic 1111, Cannot rember how I ficed it, how much Vram do you have? Automatic 1111 hasn't been updated in over 6 months, most people have moved over to Forge UI as it looks the same, but is getting more regular updates, although I would recommend ComfyUI as it is faster.
@J1B I got 12GB VRAM. A1111's dev branch does get updates. I'm using Forge, but just for Flux. I never found ComfyUI to be faster on my machine (but I could be doing something wrong).
@J1B What is next plans? Continue with SDXL?
I am not sure how much more I/the community can push SDXL models, I'm sure I could push more photorealism /NSWF but that hurts artistic styles.
I have mainly been concentrating on my Flux model: https://civitai.com/models/686814/jib-mix-flux but ran into some issues with "Flux lines" that set me back a bit, but work continues on a v8. It is a shame that more Flux models are not available on the generator, although I have made a Flux LoRA that mimics my Flux model, but haven't published it yet as it needed more testing.
I have big plans to make a realistic Illustrious merge/fine tune, similar to my Pony Model: https://civitai.com/models/515034/jib-mix-pony-realistic, it is just a question of finding the time!
and will be good when users get to vote for what models they want to have on the generator, in the future.
@J1B Thanks for the answer. I personally vote for SDXL. Your project Aphrodite is amazing, it is possible to create amazing photorealistic images. Flux is still far from reality.
Very versitle SD XL model! Congrats!
First of all this is the best model in CivitAI hands down. So, THANK YOU!! Question: are there any prompts, or embed resources that can help with hands. I get bad fingers quote frequently (fused, extra, missing, deformed etc). I have put in a few negative prompts but it doesn't work all the time. Sometimes I'm have to remove otherwise awesome creations just because of the fingers. Any recommendation is much appreciated.
Thanks, Yes SDXL models do struggle with hands sometimes (especailly if they are small in the image), I have always found hi res fix to be helpful, yes using a good negative prompt can help.
I don't know of any loras that help dramatically and constantly with hands (although that might be a good thing for me to test soon) there are lots that claim to do so on the site.
You could always try the old SD 1.5 trick of prompting "hands behind back" :)
@J1B thanks for the response. Keep doing great!
SDXL is still really great at things that flux, or any other model cant even touch. These might be the last great models we get with image generation what with everyone moving on to video now.
SDXL is great, but I think we are still a bit early with Flux, it has only been out 9 months. SDXL didn't start getting really good model finetunes until about 12 months after release. (Juggernaut Flux should be out on Civitai in a few weeks and has good photorealism)
People are starting to crack the T5 encoder censorship that has an effect on Flux now.
The main thing for me is Flux is still so slow compared to SDXL. I really just wish the RTX 5000 Series cards had better availability and price, as the Flux fp4 native hardware support can make an image in under 8 seconds and then you can upscale the good ones with fp8/fp16.
@J1B for sure. i am ready for the finetunes and for people to crack the censorship. and speed it up without quality loss. because other than that it is a near perfect model. i do wish the faces were more expressive too. always with the dead eyes and straight face! SDXL isnt perfect at this either but it at least understands expressions, or will at least return some good ones 1 out of 20 times. which is better than nothing
@cutetodeath78409597 Today I spent some time installing this new nunchaku Flux model and it is going to be incredible, I can make good Flux images in 6 seconds now on my RTX 3090 so fast.
https://github.com/mit-han-lab/ComfyUI-nunchaku/issues
Downloaded this for Invoke AI and it will only recognize it as a VAE file, not a checkpoint. Any ideas why?
hmm, Sorry I haven't used Invoke AI,
Is it placed in the correct folder?
Have you tried updating Invoke AI to the latest release?
All - I'm not able to use this model anymore for generation. Do you know what happend?
Yeah, after some last minute bid sniping it came in at position 201 out of 200 models that can use the generator this week, unfortunately. It should be back on the generator next week.
@J1B oh man. thanks for the note.
