    šŸš€ [NEW] Z-Image Revolution ZIB Base

    Fine-tuned on a meticulously curated dataset of modern social-media influencer photography (INSTAGRAM STYLE). This LoRA took months of curation, iteration, and an unreasonable amount of server burn to get natural skin, modern lighting, and clean composition to land consistently.

    New Hybrid workflow for Revolution
    Settings to experiment with:

    • Lora weights. If using with a character Lora I suggest making the combined lora weights = 1

    • Very Low CFG 1-2 on first Ksampler can get ultra realistic results.

    • Denoise on second ksampler 0.2-0.6 (set it to your liking, effects skin quality but can make model features look less realistic)

    • Model Shift (higher values tend to give less artifacts but at cost of nice compositions)


    šŸ†• FameGrid Revolution — Z-Image Base + Turbo Hybrid (Newest Release)

    This is the new flagship.

    What it is

    • Highest quality yet — trained on the Z-Image Base model.

    • Compatible with BOTH: Z-Image Base and Z-Image Turbo.

    • Use the Hybrid workflow for best quality (this is the intended way to run it).

    About the samples + checkpoints

    • Sample images were generated using multiple checkpoints — top 5 from 20 training runs.

    • Each checkpoint has its own traits, but quality is generally consistent across the top set.

    • The release checkpoint was chosen for best adherence + overall balance.

    • Some alternate checkpoints can produce:

      • better environments

      • better skin quality

      • or even better-looking subjects
        …but may trade off adherence/consistency.

    More checkpoints (Discord)
    Additional checkpoints are available in Discord:

    UltraMuse Discord is where the real stuff lives:

    āœ… Official workflows (including v1 + updates)
    āœ… Help & support (prompt + settings troubleshooting)
    āœ… Other resources (tutorials, experiments, presets)
    āœ… Additional checkpoints (stronger and lite) for Z-Image v1 available (not all will hit CivitAI)

    šŸ‘‰ Join UltraMuse Discord (Official Workflows, Support, Resources, Extra Checkpoints)

    ⭐ Additional Checkpoints (What Each One Does)

    These are included as optional variants:

    FameGrid_Revolution_ZIB_Bold

    ā€œStronger baked-in lookā€

    • More aggressive influencer styling

    • Better-looking subjects more often

    • Great if you want instant IG polish without fighting prompts

    FameGrid_Revolution_ZIB_More_Bold

    ā€œEven more IGā€

    • The strongest ā€œInstagram lookā€ variant

    • Heavier aesthetic push / more stylized strength

    • Best when you want max influence and don’t care about subtle realism as much

    FameGrid_Revolution_ZIB_ExtraReal

    ā€œCleaner realism biasā€

    • Nicer backgrounds overall

    • Subjects lean more average / believable (less ā€œmodel-faceā€)

    • Great for authentic lifestyle + grounded social content

    FameGrid_Revolution_ZIB_UltraReal

    ā€œThe quality monsterā€

    • Extremely nice backgrounds

    • Great prompt adherence

    • Minimal artifacts

    • Best for ā€œthis needs to pass as realā€ outputs and complex prompts


    0.7 – 0.9 is the sweet spot

    • 0.7 = more natural, less overcooked

    • 0.9 = stronger stylization, still clean


    šŸ”„ Z-Image v1 PRO (Discord-Only)

    PRO version is coming in the next few days:

    • It will NOT be released on CivitAI.

    • Discord is the only place you’ll get the notification.

    šŸ‘‰ Join UltraMuse Discord if you actually want access.


    šŸ†• 1.5 Latest Updates (Qwen)

    New Trigger Word: rlskn
    Use this trigger along with the default one IGMODEL to unlock:

    • more realistic skin texture

    • natural imperfections

    • more ā€œaverage-lookingā€ believable subjects (less plastic model-face)

    Start prompts like:
    ā€œiPhone photo of an IGMODEL woman with rlskn (detailed skin:1.3) ā€¦ā€

    Additional Guidance

    • rlskn = realism, texture, believable skin

    • Lower CFG = more realism

    • Higher CFG = sharper, but can reduce naturalness

    • Match CFG and LoRA weight:

      • Low CFG → lower weights

      • High CFG → higher weights

    • This model loves long prompts — 800+ characters is ideal

    • If outputs aren’t realistic enough, increase LoRA strength slightly


    Who This Is For

    FameGrid was trained on imagery emphasizing:

    • Natural, confident posing

    • Clean, modern composition

    • Soft but controlled lighting

    • Professional yet relatable influencer aesthetics

    Ideal for:

    • Lifestyle & influencer-style photography

    • Product shots with human context

    • Virtual character creation

    • Social content generation at scale


    Trigger Words

    • IGMODEL — main trigger for influencer-style realism

    • rlskn — enhanced skin texture + natural appearance


    • Model Flow: 2

    • Sampler: res 2s

    • Scheduler: simple

    • CFG: 1–3 (1 recommended)

    • LoRA Weight: 1.0–2.0 (1 recommended; increase if realism drops)


    🧪 Behind the Scenes — The Training Gauntlet

    FameGrid didn’t come together cleanly. It was a brutal training cycle — collapses, overfit runs, underfit runs, entire experiments trashed because one stylistic artifact poisoned the look.

    I destroyed more models than I kept. Re-curated images, rebuilt datasets, restarted pipelines, burned cloud credits like they were nothing — because that’s what it costs to chase realism without drifting into uncanny, plastic, or over-processed territory.

    Every iteration forced one choice: throw it out or settle.
    I didn’t settle.

    The result is a LoRA that feels natural, modern, and clean — influencer photography that can actually pass in real social environments.


    šŸ›  Additional Notes & Tools

    FameGrid is highly sensitive to prompt structure. Tiny phrasing changes can swing results wildly — that’s why it’s powerful, but also why lazy prompts don’t get premium outputs.

    To fix that, we built:

    FameGrid Prompt Expander
    Turns short prompts into long-form descriptions that match the model’s ideal length and composition.

    damn the samples looks good

    because they are real images, with low denoise.

    @kiarassxĀ Why are you making shit up lol. There's people posting with the same results. But I'll take that as a compliment if they are that real looking :)

    It's really good. But sadly the skin looks sometimes like from burn victim. Though if that is worked out, it's perfect

    It's completely useless, and if you have a trained character like Lora, it ruins that too... It's advertising Discord in the workflow without sharing it, and that's the only reason I'm giving it a negative rating.

    Great, someone not just releasing low effort Zit finetunes with 1 or 2 example images, good work as always.

    instead of advertising your discord server for the workflow, why dont you share it here? we are on civitai, we expect all the assets here, not under a discord paywall or any other bullsht. As a creator myself I am displeased.

    The workflow is an added bonus. I create Lora's as a full-time living, so I'm not in the same position as most creators on here. That means I have to set the terms under which my work is accessed in order to continue doing it at the same level.

    coolstradJan 19, 2026

    @UltraMuseĀ I understand what you mean but I am 100% sure you totally know that your LoRA won’t work on a normal workflow, and people are getting awful results. Keep in mind that civitiai is a place where you provide access to what you advertised for free. Your sample images on the LoRA is what we all are expecting, but we don’t get anything even close to that. If you are trying to earn from that workflow but you keep it under a paywall then do not upload the Lora with those sample images at the first place which is entirely misleading.

    @UltraMuseĀ I support you bro just like in the late 70s Bill Gates bitterly complained because people just want software for free - and as someone with custom loras, I know a lot of work (tedious work) goes into it. No shame in trying to monetize, you even give it away in the discord.

    coolstradJan 19, 2026Ā· 2 reactions

    @giorgioosn367Ā You simply dont understand what i meant, Its fine to monetize it but why is he putting the sample images on the civitai gallery like that which is impossible to achieve without the workflow, this is civitai and everyone expects things for free. So this model is misleading people. He should have added in description that achieve results like these (attached images on desc) with my paid workflow on discord.

    @coolstradĀ Fair enough, well I'll see how the next one goes by having the additional checkponts at the discord rather than the workflow. But it's very much acheivable with your own workflow if you are using the same settings. IE Zhang sampler (clownshark samplers)
