*** left iamge: *** >>>with my lora<<< *** *** *** right image: *** >>>with out (so you see the puppy face)<<< *** *** I found that images generated with my LoRA appear more amateur and less like the "model_flux" style. In Better Faces, I aimed to include a diverse range of cultures and ethnicities—11 if I remember correctly—with both young and old subjects, currently focusing on women. my FLUX-lora responds to age prompts like __yo for 20yo, 30yo, 40yo. V........... see below ..............V Try my other face expression LoRA. If you use it at a weight of only 0.4 (without trigger words), you'll achieve more realistic results. https://civitai.com/models/151594?modelVersionId=827638 I aim for realistic faces with natural skin, avoiding perfect symmetry. :) FLUX with Euler-Sampler and DDIM_Scheduler performs well at -> 12-22 Steps Trigger words aren't essential but are useful for specifying cultural features! ;) Model Descriptions: FLUX: Recognizes mature (40yo) and young (20yo) subjects with reduced bokeh effect. For higher weights, it learns faces without jewelry, so consider adding jewelry and background details if desired. pony_weak: Better for close-ups; doesn't perform well with complex prompts. Not limited to "1girl" and includes backgrounds. pony_strong: works better with more complex prompts, not only 1girl, and call background face enhancer_v3: Stronger in close-ups. Please consider using my prompts. ;) face enhancer_v2: Much smoother and improved. Multi-Face Models: multifacesv_3: (Keywords: group, crowd, many faces) Generates more people, but distant faces still need improvement. Recommended weight: 0.3-0.8. multifaces_v2: (Trigger: specify the "number" of faces) i used also copax and juggernaut that is already not that bad at small faces so may you dont need it! multifaces_v1 -> (trigger: group, faces) Additional Recommendations: Overall, I suggest using Adetailer or a refiner for enhancing small faces. Face Swap with Adetailer and Reactor https://civitai.com/articles/5002/face-swap-with-adetailer-and-reactor The new SDXL VAE (released on 2023.07.26) is significantly better than older versions for face generation. Please try my LoRA, and you'll often get more realistic faces—not those blurred, soft ones. ;) Hints: please, almost no negative prompt is necessary! see my articles: https://civitai.com/articles/1890/better-faces-lora https://civitai.com/articles/1826/sdxl-prompts All SFW! https://civitai.com/models/119376?modelVersionId=608884 ---- less trained, better for simple close-ups trained on my pony model should work for most real/pony Trigger words: aborigines african arabian arctic brazilian chinese egyptian european japanese nordic russian western
