It is a hybrid model between <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/1330309">Chroma</a>/<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/618692">Flux </a>that puts back the removed components (modulation layers, etc) from FLUX.1-dev by selectively merging it with a special variant of <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/694493?modelVersionId=1700674">C4PACITOR</a> but, importantly, keeping Chroma's de-distilled (unchained) nature and output layers.</li><li>Can be used with Chroma or FLUX de-distilled workflows (CFG enabled)</li></ul><ul><li>Can even be used with flux.1-dev workflows, but you'll need to increase the FluxGuidance to &gt; 4 for adherence most times. Sampler research into "what all works" is ongoing but has been surprising!</li><li>For the moment, it is recommended to use CHROMA or classic CFG enabled workflows (including negative prompts!) vs. FLUX unless you want to help research the boundaries with us!</li><li>Specific anime/illustration tuning to introduce some lost artistic concepts</li><li>NSFW tuned and capable of realism and artistic/anime images. Female anatomy is well represented as a result of <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/1330309">CHROMA </a>+ <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/694493?modelVersionId=1700674">C4PACITOR's </a>advance knowledge on these subjects. It tends to lean toward the latter's style.</li><li>FLUX LoRA seem to work but testing is ongoing for efficacy.</li><li>We have not tested this in any inference tool except ComfyUI yet - YMMV! Keep us posted!</li><li>Like our work?
