3/4/24 update - now includes SDXL vae fix.
This is the SDXL version of my SD1.5 model Halcyon. I'm a professional photographer and I've incorporated some training from my own images in this model. Most of the preview images are shown with no LORAs to give you an honest idea of the model's capabilities, obviously you may have better results using LORAs.
This is a very robust model primarily focused on photorealism but capable of generating all types of images. I typically use DPM++ 3M SDE KARRAS at around 30 steps with a CFG of 5-8, however feel free to use whatever sampler and steps you find gives you the best results.
This is not a porn model, so don't expect it to do well with explicitly sexual prompts, however it does very well with nudity and NSFW genital details-- better than most other photorealism models in my opinion.

This is my go to base model for realism. If you want to prompt something more spicy, extract a lora from pyro's latest nsfw and apply it 0.3-0.5.
I always thought Pyro had some serious untapped potential. I think it was overlooked, but it was very unique vs. other non-pony NSFW models. I myself have made a few Pyro/Halcyon merges! How do you extract a LORA from a model? (I'm using A1111 and relatively skilled with computers, but certainly not a dev.).
@SleezeBagDiffusion do you plan to publish the merge? That would be awesome
There is a Pyro extracted LoRA here: https://civitai.com/models/143636?modelVersionId=193523
Absolute gold, this model is both realistic AND expressive facial emotions. So far models have been a choice between anime yet expressive or realistic and stoic faces. Plus some of the best prompt adherence I've seen. Fantastic job on this
