    # 🎨 ARTY PROJECT — Art Realism

    Realism, rethought as art.

    KREA2 base × 12 author LoRA · no trigger words needed

    ARTY PROJECT began as an experiment in pushing realism toward its artistic

    reinterpretation — and the merge found its own voice. It doesn't copy the

    world, it authors it: even a plain, realistic prompt comes out as a finished

    work — a painting, a staged photograph, or a crafted artifact.

    Born by accident, kept on purpose. Documented with a 60-prompt diagnostic

    suite.

    ## What is art realism

    With no style word, the model routes your subject to the nearest strong

    artistic tradition:

    - a neon street arrives as urban painting

    - a fish market as documentary key art

    - a cafe menu as a still life

    - a child with a balloon as ink minimalism with a single color accent

    Two poles: painterly and staged-photographic — both authored,

    never snapshot.

    ## What you get

    A wide, cleanly held range of traditions:

    - Chinese ink wash (shan-shui) with seals and mist

    - 19th-century academic oil

    - dark fantasy oil (Brom / Gurney register)

    - 90s cel anime with painted backgrounds

    - cinematic stills: horror, historical key art, fashion editorial, food macro

    Craft media as physical artifacts. Hands-made media (validated: tapestry,

    daguerreotype) arrive as objects — frames, tarnish, weave, cracks — not as

    filters.

    Materiality first. Cracked shield paint, molten glass optics, weathered

    hands, fur, chalk dust, wet cobblestone reflections — micro-texture is the

    merge's home ground.

    Authored composition & palette. Staged framing, tasteful grading, the

    signature "monochrome + one accent" scheme. The model adds symbolic details

    on its own (a wisp of smoke, a prop with a biography) and presents works with

    genre-correct attribution: signatures on oils, seals on ink wash, mastheads

    on magazines, none on photos.

    Reliable close-up anatomy — hands, skin and fabric pass stress tests.

    Cross-style is a feature. The medium dominates the subject: a cyberpunk

    hacker is naturalized into sumi-e; a "sports car in academic oil" is

    historicized into a 1900s racer. Both strategies keep the tradition coherent.

    ## Text discipline (validated)

    Explicit, short, uppercase strings render cleanly in ANY medium:

    - "VOGUE" — magazine masthead

    - "OPEN" — neon

    - "ОТЧЁТ" — on a monitor, Cyrillic with diacritics intact

    - "БАР" — neon, Cyrillic

    - "13.08.2026 14:32" — dashcam overlay

    - "LAP 2/3", "SPEED 180" — pixel HUD

    Rules: state the inscription explicitly in quotes; keep one hero inscription

    per frame; Cyrillic in UPPERCASE. Unspecified background text always decays

    to decorative pseudo-script — that's the model's native "text as gesture".

    ## Honest boundaries

    - No snapshot mode. "Casual / smartphone photo" is absorbed into art

    realism; "webcam" becomes a physical prop in an authored photo. Raw

    utilitarian frames only via machine-vision markers: dashcam footage,

    satellite view (add an explicit timestamp if you need the overlay).

    - Technical drafting is artisanalized. A "blueprint" arrives as vintage

    pen-and-ink hand drafting, not CAD.

    - Crowds clone. Dozens of faces may repeat — keep the hero count low.

    - Painted mode hides faces (silhouette, profile, back). For close-up

    faces, use the photographic pole.

    - Complex motion may produce hybrid poses (validated once, ballet).

    ## Marker behavior map

    | Prompt marker | Behavior |

    |---|---|

    | plain / casual / smartphone | absorbed → default art realism |

    | webcam | absorbed; device becomes a prop |

    | dashcam / satellite | escape → raw machine-vision frame |

    | blueprint | artisanalized → vintage hand drafting |

    | craft media (tapestry, daguerreotype…) | generalized as physical artifact |

    | CRT / retro game | kept as faithful digital artifact |

    | subject + foreign medium | medium dominates (naturalize or historicize) |

    ## Prompt guide

    - Plain prompt → default art realism. Add a medium word to route a tradition.

    - Explicit text also steers composition (the model will choose an

    over-the-shoulder view to show a screen with your word on it).

    - Cross-style prompts are the fun zone — don't be afraid to clash eras.

    ## Best for

    Covers · posters · key art · concept art · album art · editorial

    illustration · book plates · pitch decks

    ## Try these (from the test suite)

    - a cyberpunk hacker with neural implants, sumi-e ink wash painting

    - a still life with a skull, pomegranates and a silver goblet, chiaroscuro

    - a daguerreotype portrait of a stern woman in black

    - a wet cobblestone street reflecting neon signs after rain, a neon sign

    with the text "БАР" in capital letters

    - an office worker at a desk in front of a monitor, the monitor shows the

    word "ОТЧЁТ" in large capital letters

    - a parking lot with a few cars on an overcast day, dashcam footage,

    timestamp "13.08.2026 14:32" in the corner

    - a retro racing game screenshot, CRT scanlines, HUD text "LAP 2/3"

    and "SPEED 180"

    - a rocket launch, 1990s cel anime, a gantry sign with the text "ПОЕХАЛИ"

    in capital letters

    ## Recipe

    KREA2 + 12 author LoRA. Art realism is an emergent property of the merge —

    the shared component of twelve crafted corpora became the model's new

    neutral.
