V4
Alright, so what’s new in this version? I cranked up the aesthetic dial, added more diversity in ages, and improved how it handles Asian features. But - because there’s always a but - I did notice the hands got a little wonkier. Eh, can’t win ‘em all.
I highly recommend pairing this with my LoRAs, like the realism amplifier, 2000s analog core, and others, since this checkpoint works best as a base for stylized LoRAs. Might do one more version (because, let’s be real, I kinda scuffed v3 and v4 a bit).
Recommended Settings:
-
CFG Scale: 3 (instead of 2.5 used in earlier versions)
-
Steps: 40 (helps with stability, though some minor instability remains in hands and fingers)
-
CFG 0.9 vs. 1.0: Lower CFG on 0.1 or even 0.2 may sometimes improve some details (may not improve, so feel free to expriment with this too), though it might take longer to generate.
