    Key features and capabilities:

    The breadth of genres and styles:

    Photographic realism: It is able to generate images indistinguishable from high-quality photographs, with accurate rendering of details, depth of field, natural lighting (golden hour, contour light, sunlight) and textures (leather, fur, fabric, metal, stone).

    Digital art and painting: Creates works in the style of digital painting, hyperrealism, mixed media with elements of surrealism and abstraction.

    Genre versatility: Works effectively in the genres of fantasy, science fiction (cyberpunk, steampunk, space opera), horror, post-apocalyptic, historical reconstruction, macro and landscape photography, fashion photography and concept art.

    Mastery of working with light and atmosphere: Lighting control: Masterfully controls dramatic, counter, neon, soft and theatrical lighting.

    Understands and reproduces the effects of bokeh, light rays, glow, reflections on wet surfaces and in water.

    Creating an atmosphere: It conveys the mood exceptionally well: mystical, melancholic, peaceful, mysterious, epic, gloomy, nostalgic.

    Easily generates fog, haze, smoke, atmospheric perspective. Detail and composition: High level of detail: Attention to textures (wrinkled skin, fabric patterns, rust, cracked paint, architectural ornaments, wool, scales), accessories (jewelry, weapons, costume details) and backgrounds.

    Thoughtful composition: Uses symmetry, the rule of thirds, leading lines, depth of field (blurred background), various angles (low, high, side view) to create visually appealing frames. Strengths in specific areas: Portrait and character: Creates expressive portraits of people and fantastic creatures with diverse looks, emotions, hairstyles, makeup and in elaborate costumes (historical, fantastic, ethnic).

Landscape and nature: Forest trails, mountain ranges, city streets, fantasy and alien landscapes, underwater world, space scenes — all taking into account the time of day, weather and season.

    Still life and subject photography: Artistic representation of objects (books, candles, dishes, food) with an emphasis on light, texture and composition.

    Stylistic techniques: Easily applies effects: silhouette, monochrome (black and white), high contrast, retro aesthetics, vintage look, cinematic feel. He is able to combine incompatible elements in reality (animals in clothes, floating islands, hybrid creatures), creating surreal and fantasy scenes.

    Getting nothing like the posted images. Even when copy/paste everything. Images are blown up, over saturated, blurry, cartoonish and more.

    What's the preferred sampler and scheduler?

    I see you use several different samplers with mixed steps and CFG yet nothing turn out like the images you posted.

    I'm generating in Automatic1111 and it might be because of Kohya Hires.fix

    @wildzzz Possible. Thanks.

    Using a dnd lora did the trick. Not quite as good results but it'll do.

    What are people using to get these results? Using the recommended settings makes body horror and garbled images. Changing samplers doesn't help much. All of your models have the most amazing examples, but I can't get any of them to work at all.
