Jib Mix Realistic XL

A new version of my SDXL model with some more detail in skin and backgrounds.

Recommended settings:
Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karrass
Steps: 8-35
CFG: 2-5 (I Often use CFG 3)

with DPM++ SDE you can go as low as 4 steps. with a CFG of 2.2

v15.0 Maximus

Jib Mix Realistic XL
Creator: J1B


v13.0 Risen From Ashes
Important: VAE is already baked in.



This is a Merge model of many of my favorite realistic SDXL Models (and some more artistic models put in for style and consistency) and I really like the output it makes.



Version 13:

After the very poor launch of SD3 I decided SXDL still had more to give and bring you this improved merge I have been tweaking for a good while now. FP32 version coming soon!

This version seems to benifit from a lower CFG than previous versions 2-5 CFG seems good. (2.7 seems the sweet spot for portraits)



Recommended settings:
Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karras

Steps: 10-35

CFG: 2-8 (I Often use CFG 5.5)

Version 12:

This version has better brighter colours and contrast plus better prompt following.

Recommended settings:
Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karrass

Steps: 10-35

CFG: 2-8 (I Often use CFG 6.5)



This is likely to be the last SDXL model merge/finetune I publish as SD3 will be out to tune Next week!

Version 11:

Bringing you another merge of great models I like and doing 100's of A/B tests to pick the model that gives the best images. This is not a lightning model as I prefer quality over speed.



This is likely to be the last SDXL model merge/finetune I publish as SD3 will be out to tune soon.

And also tested them quite a lot with the the new Hyper Lora (8 Step).

Version 10: Is merged with the SDXL Lighting Lora.

You need to use a CFG of :CFG: 1-2

and can use steps a low as: Steps: 4-8

and DPM++ SDE Sampler is best.

Version 9: Merged with some good prompt following models, much better male bodies.

Version 8: I have merged with some models newer models, tried to work on skin texture (but it is still not where I want it to be) and increasing the background details in images.

Version 7: I have merged with some models that claim to have improved Prompt Adherence (you still needs some cherry-picking of images, it is no Dalle.3) and some other new models with styles I liked the look of.

Version 6 has better/more detailed backgrounds and higher image contrast as well as some better NSFW capabilities. It also seems to give a wider variety of poses and image variations.

Version 5 has been merged with a few different SDXL eye Improvement Loras and several NSFW Loras. then merged back with older versions of the model and some Anime and Artistic models to bring back the artistic capabilities.

Version 4 incorporates newer released flexible models and seems to improve composition, skin texture, and artistic styles.

Version 3 incorporates hassansdxl_v10 NSFW model at a low 0.15.

And improves NSFW generations without affecting (probably Improving) overall consistency and artistic flare.

Version 2 incorporates RundiffusionXL_beta, Colossus Project XL and improves skin texture and overall composition.

Version 1 is a Merge of:

JuggernautXL_version6Rundiffusion

realvisxlV20_v20Bakedvae

wowXLV2_v2

Thinkdiffusionxl_v10

nightvisionXLPhotorealisticPortrait

MOHAWK_v14

It is quite good at NSFW , prompting (boobs out) (naked) will usually be enough.



Finally, a few recommendations for the settings:

Sampler: I like the Heun Sampler but it is slower than most.

Steps: 30-40

CFG: 7 (Only really tested on CFG 7 but lower may look pleasing/natural.)

Including: "35mm photograph, film, bokeh, professional, 4k, highly detailed" gives very good skin details in portraits.


I like to put the token (Bokeh) In the negative prompt to remove some blurring and improve the image.



Most of my sample Images have used the SXDL Styles Selector on the Photographic prompt injection setting.

I like to give all my output images at least a 2x upscale with img2img with high steps and a 0.15 - 0.6 Denoising strength.

Some times I the do a 4K upscale with Ultimate tiled upscale script extension.
