RealGrade Cinema IL is the most photographic rung, dominated by Nova Reality XL while keeping a trace of PerfectDeliberate's stable composition.[Recipe] Weighted merge on UNet only: 0.25 x PerfectDeliberate v10 + 0.75 x Nova Reality XL IL v9.0. VAE and text encoders are inherited from PerfectDeliberate. Illustrious-family checkpoint, fp16 safetensors, no baked LoRA.[Series] RealGrade IL is a four-rung realism ladder on the same two parents: Air 80/20, Balance 65/35, Form 45/55, Cinema 25/75. Choose the amount of photographic realism you need instead of downloading an undocumented remix.[Recommended settings] Euler a, 24-28 steps, CFG 5.0-5.5, 832x1216. Hires fix holds up well above 1.25x.[Known limitations] Two-person prompts frequently collapse to a single subject - this comes from both parents and reproduced in every seed tested. East Asian facial priors dominate unless ethnicity is stated explicitly. Illustrious-family only: do not load this in SD 1.5 or SDXL workflows. At 80% PerfectDeliberate the output stays deliberately semi-real, so do not expect photographic skin from Air.[Parents and license] PerfectDeliberate v10: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/24350">https://civarchive.com/models/24350</a> ; Nova Reality XL: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/453428">https://civarchive.com/models/453428</a> . Both parents permit derivatives, Civitai generation and other generation services (Rent). The parents do not grant selling this checkpoint or its merges. Parent credit is retained.
