I decided to start from scratch and took two days to build a workflow to block merge, then merge, then inject💉, then finetune.

and then failed...

V3.1

Welp.... after exhaustive testing and a rather priey API call, I think I've delivered a hell of a model. Read all about the journey and the testing Here: https://civarchive.com/articles/35724/model-same-face-syndrome-how-to-fix-it-without-retraining-test-sheets-included

V3.0

I tired merges, images, messing with block swaps, epochs, etc. I finmally used a mix of all of them.

• slightly more responsive to NSFW (not my goal. There are LoRAs for that)

• better prompt adherence.

• Better asthetics (I think)

Let's hope thie version measures up.

V2.0 (NSFW version)

Does NSFW exceedingly well. Beats most models here, but it does not measure up to V1.0 realism

V1.0

• Trained on somethin like 3600 images for two weeks straight.

• semantic tuned to get that SDXL look

All images I uploaded are Euler/ simple, 10-12 steps, no LoRAs, using my Pro workflow here: https://civarchive.com/models/2726952/krea-2-pro-grade-w-image-edit-style-transfer-moodboard-controlnet-multi-reference-sam3-detailers-and-low-vram-options
