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.
Description
Better NSFW details, though this isn't a dedicated "NSFW model" you should see better results than previous version.

Something camera type?
This is actually THE best photographic SDXL checkpoint, and it's not even a close race if you do a bunch of comparisons. The prompt adherence in this thing is off the charts for SDXL.
Thank you!
instead of witch hunting AI, honestly, this model does best demonstrate/nailing the argument artist should be first at the front line to pioneer AI with their own proprietary materials to train the best finetune of themselves.
v1.9 - (previously I had used 1.5 for quite a long time!)
Long story short, for "regular" SDXL, this is one of the best checkpoint.
This is great for art inspired images!
Totally recommend!
Regarding characters/females:
* It does do nice images.
* I very much apreciate that the women are adult, might be because its based on photos and not drawn anime.
* By this I mean, - I - have had quite an issue with hands, no matter wether its 21:9 (landscape, and lets be real, at this aspect ratio - it IS to be expected, as this an "all checkpoints" issue) or 9:16 (portrait) - even with/after Adetailer hand-fix.
* My aim for images with females is around: PG-13/R/artistic X ratings ; which, sadly, for my taste, this doesnt achieve to my taste/preference.
This model doesn't work well with LORAs.. sadly. I turn LORAs off, its fine. I turn them on, with weights under a 1.00 and it turns into a complete mess. Either we are forced to keep the LoRas extremely low or it is blurry.
I don't have these issues, and you can see from my posts using this model that I use LORAs.
