Does everything a PonyXL model can, but "nearly" photorealistic!

V4 update, improved faces and lighting trained in.

Workflow I use to create the preview images sdxlpony-face-and-upscale-civitai-metadata

What it does:

If you're familiar with Pony models, they are very specific in their prompting and subject focus. I made this model to work the same way, but get closer to photorealistic. It uses the same prompting and LoRAs that other PonyXL models use.

What it doesn't do:

It's not a general model. Like other PonyXL models, it's more designed to work with booru tags and mostly does images with people in them. If you want to make general images, use a standard SDXL model.

What's coming:

PonyXL is trained on images with "exaggerated" anatomy. So I've purposely kept it from getting too photorealistic for the moment due to uncanny valley issues. As I train it more, I'll bring it closer to photoreal. In the meantime, use prompts such as (realistic photograph, depth of field, bokeh, etc) to help get the photo look.

How to use:

I recommend using the standard SDXL VAE. CFG should range from 7 to 10, higher than other models. You can experiment with different samplers. I prefer DPM++ 2S a Karras for consistency and DPM++ 3M SDE Exponential to get wild. Prompting for quality should use the score system like other PonyXL models. (score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up) in the positive prompt and (score_3_up, score_4_up, score_5_up) in the negative prompt. Otherwise your images will be very plain.

Alternately, you can use the Pony PDXL embeddings that I created for much easier use.
