    So… you want to hear a story, eh? One about creation, ambition, and endless possibilities? Haha, well… have I got a story for you!

    Pandora is an all-purpose model built to handle a wide range of creative outputs. It aims to blend flexibility, efficiency, and prompt comprehension into a cohesive model.

    The model is composed of:

    • Photographic Content (75%)

    • Artistic and Anime (25%)

    Key Capabilities

    • Portraits and Characters

    • Anime and Digital Art

    • Macro and Detail Work

    • Painting and Conceptual Art


    Current Model Goals

    • Detailing and Realism: Enhancing overall detail, including skin textures, reflections, and lighting

    • Faces and Anatomy: Producing more realistic faces, chins, and accurate proportions

    • Art Styles: Supporting painting, digital art, and anime styles

    • Photographic Styles: Refining the ability to create photorealistic images with dynamic lighting and rich textures

    • Faster Generation: Performance optimizations and reduced generation time

    • Higher Resolution: Improving the ability to generate images with resolutions above 2MP

    • Negative Prompting (Pro Version): Enhancing negative prompting capabilities for more precise control (currently in progress and showing promising results)


    Known Issues

    • Anime Style: While improved, anime could still be better, it is recommended to pair the model with my Pandora | Anime and Digital Art LoRa

    • Painting Styles: Painting styles are coming in a future update

    Current Enhancements

    • Better Details: Enhanced textures and lighting across various styles

    • Photographic Style: Outstanding results with photorealistic images with better look and composition

    • Better Realism: Realistic scenes, faces, and settings have become more consistent and detailed

    • Improved Anime: Anime-style images are more polished compared to Flux-Dev or Schnell


    Available Versions

    • Dev Version: Focused on adaptability and versatility.

    • Pro Version: A more refined version built from the dedistilled version for enhanced performance, including negative prompting and other advanced features. Mainly the use of CFG or Classifier Free Guidance, giving it an edge over the Dev version and allowing negative prompting, but making it harder to master.


    Why Beta Testing is Key

    Pandora is now in beta, meaning there is still room for growth and refinement. The goal is for it to become a well-rounded, flexible model that adapts to diverse creative needs, from realism and anime to conceptual storytelling.

    The pro version uses a Flux dedistilled core, but there is a distinctive dev and pro branches created for different needs. Feedback is crucial at this stage to shape it into the all-purpose model it’s meant to be.

    Description

    ***Pandora-Pro is based on Flux Dedistilled***

    Recommended Parameters

    • CFG: 3-4 (not distilled guidance)

    • Steps: 30 to 40

    • Sampler: DPM++ 2M

    • Scheduler: Beta

    Note: This release does not include the t5_xxl, CLIP-L, or VAE files. You will need to download them separately for proper functionality:

    Nice warm feel to the images, NSFW works nicely. Thanks for your help with Swarm and TeaCache

    Pretty much a model I've had the best results with on Flux. Personally I prefer the creativity of SDXL based models and the way it interacts with LORAs, but oh well, that's not the fault of this checkpoint for sure. - This checkpoint also works very well with LCM sampler + beta.

    I totally agree with you @Amatiramisu, flux does have a strong tendency towards realism and can sometimes be extremely biased. That's precisely why I set out to create this model, to push it closer to the creative levels seen in models like JuggernautXL. At the moment it's clearly an improvement, but there’s no denying I've got ways to go!

    This model is currently one of my favorites, especially when it comes to my own Loras. Many pictures are already so good after a few passes that you can actually upscale them directly.

    Now I'm not a pro and I still have a lot to learn after about 8 months with Flux, but I've used a few models and normally use the Colossus and demonCORE from Afroman4peace https://civitai.com/user/Afroman4peace, but this is definitely my number 3 model. Use it in ForgeUI and SwarmUI 0.9.5 / 0.9.6 without a single problem. Definitely worth a look!

    Thanks for your review! I’ve built it to be my own personal favourite and just uploaded a new dedistilled version which should be even better!

    @BilboTaggins I’m sorry I have no idea how to covert models to SVDQuant-int4… It looks promising though, there must be a way! At the moment I can convert it to gguf if that helps, anything between q4k to q8k (0-1-s-m-l), you just need to ask. It all depends on how much vram and ram your system has.

    Hi, kudos to you for this amazing looking model. I would appreciate it if you could convert it to gguf for 8GB VRAM and 16 RAM.

    @BilboTaggins @keturn @maestrojee q4km version of both the Dev and Pro version are now available, enjoy!

    Unseelie_AIApr 29, 2025

    @C47HERINE Probably Pro (I like having the the extra cfg and negative options), but whichever one you find handles Realism and loras better would be ideal. =)

    @Unseelie_AI q8_0 is not available and I’ve been able to get amazing results with it! I recommend that you read the version details before you download. And for you information all versions work great with Lora’s (although Pro versions are better)

    @C47HERINE Thanks so much! Downloading now. =)
