This checkpoint is a blend between brutal realism and art.
To archive this goal I have used a unpublished version of DemonCore. Its based on version 4.1 MidgardBeast got an additional training on over 2000 images... This version got also my own enhancer merged in. I may will publish this one soon.. Freek22 helped me a lot creating the newer Midgard checkpoints.
The other part of the model is Kika_real V4 https://tensor.art/models/745584530192150460 an awesome model that is a bit more art focused and also worth checking out. This model was created by speach1sdef178 and Triple_Headed_Monkey
ArtCore is intendet to create realistic images with almost HDR like colors. Its very creative for a realism checkpoint. Feel free to try different styles though. It can also produce NSFW things but this model is not intented to create porn.
Settings:
I will add a official workflow for it soon. Most of the images are created with Forge. I recommend using around 15-25 steps (tested with SDE) and around 2-6cfg. It workd below that but you will get more details using this setting.
Nearly all samplers are working with it. I don't recommend using Heun (normal), 2M SDE (normal) and 2M SDE Heun (normal).
I will include the images I created with Comfy in the training data. Here you can get some basic workflows. Just load the images into Comfy.

And another gem of the gems' cooperations arises from the creativity cauldron.
Time to play with it and wait until the next Demon and/or Viking storms the AI Universe.
ArtCore is half a Demoncore though ;-). The original version I've used as base is just too realistic to release on its own. It's realism on a level that hurts your eyes. (I really mean it.) Kika_real did something awesome with it. It's still realistic but gained more creativity and better colours.
Wow! Looks fantastic, I'll give it a go... Keep up the amazing work! :-)
Thanks for trying it out. Let me know when you tried it.
What should be done to make it available on the Civitai Imaga Generator?
