v1 - Krea 2 is fun af.

Krea 2 is great right from the jump. But, so far only found a few things that I wanted to focus on for v1 (skin textures mostly). Not sure what the Krea team trained on to make everything soaking ass wet, but it can be a bit much lol. Adding in "No visible water, Dry skin, etc" to the positive prompt seems to curve it some. This is going to be a fun one

Setting Recommendations:

Sampler/Scheduler (what I've found so far)

• er_sde/beta (decent starting point)

• euler/simple, normal (clean for hires fix)

• exp_heun_2_x0_sde/linear_quadratic (nice for detail)

Steps: 8-10

CFG: 1.0

Resolution: Like most, at least 1MP (1024x1024) if using multiple passes, hires fix/upscaling.

• Hi Res Fix: 1.5-2.0x latent up (bislerp) @ ~0.35-0.5 denoise (euler/simple) over ~7 steps

• Upscaling: Ultimate SD Upscale - 2x @ 0.20 denoise

BUT, It can handle 1.5-4MP (1280 to 2048) initial generations very nicely with ~CHEFS KISS~ details, skin especially. Haven't really found a bad size yet, just depends on your workflow.

Other Recommendations:

Drink plenty of water and wash your ass.
