This model is the result of extensive checkpoint merging, focused on achieving a more natural and believable level of realism.The primary goal was to improve how skin is rendered moving away from overly smooth or plastic-looking outputs, and instead producing textures that feel more organic and lifelike.With the right prompting, the model is capable of generating: Natural skin textureVisible pores and fine detailsSubtle imperfections such as wrinkles and age spotsMore grounded and less “AI-polished” results ______________________________________________________________________Notes:Created through multiple merges and refinementsExact merge sources are partially lost due to the experimental workflowBest results come with detailed prompts and SDXL-optimized settings______________________________________________________________________Important note on skin rendering:By default (without specific skin detail prompts), the model generates relatively smooth, clean, and idealized skin like most SDXL/Illustrious realistic merges. This is normal behavior.To get organic, lifelike skin with visible texture, pores, wrinkles, age spots, and imperfections, actively add tags to your positive prompt, e.g.:skin pores, age spots, wrinkled skin, wrinkles, weathered skin, skin imperfections(or use weights: (wrinkled skin:1.2), (visible pores:1.1))For ultra-clean beauty-style skin, avoid these tags or add them to negative prompt (e.g., wrinkles, pores, imperfections, detailed skin texture).______________________________________________________________________Recommended use:CFG Scale 5 Steps 35+ Negative prompt: asian, anime, cartoonish, worst quality ______________________________________________________________________ This model is provided as-is. The author does not take responsibility for any outputs generated by users.Please use it responsibly and in accordance with local laws and platform guidelines.
