CyberRealistic is a flexible, easy-to-use photorealistic model built from nonstop testing, custom blends, and just the right amount of chaos. The backstory? It’s honestly a wild mashup of different checkpoints, but what really counts is what you get in the end: sharp, expressive, clean renders that just work.

It’s tuned for both textual inversion and LoRA, so it’s great for anyone from total beginners to hardcore prompt wizards. If you’re making portraits, messing around with new styles, or just want a model that steps aside and does its job, CyberRealistic won’t let you down.

Description

Several features developed for CyberRealistic Classic 3.1 have been incorporated into this version along with some additional enhancements. Furthermore, the foundation of CyberRealistic has been slightly adjusted.

Most sample images use a test negative TI (which still is in development), which can be downloaded from Huggingface.

More explicit than earlier editions. Disregard this version if it's not what you're looking for.

A new cyberealistic model out? Gotta try it, one of my favourite SD 1.5 models ever :) Are you planning to move to SDXL? I've moved to SDXL myself as it's finally in a good spot and more coherent, your work to refine it should get it in a great spot

Awesome checkpoint! When comparing this one with the SDXL version, what pros and cons each has got from your perspective? So far I have been the SD 1.5 user, however I'm considering switching to SDXL. But somehow there are a lot of comments that SDXL is still somewhat behind the classy SD 1.5.

Determining the pros and cons is subjective. We're all aware of the technical advantages, but that shouldn't be the sole reason for making a change. Personally, I find myself sticking with the 1.5 version about 90% of the time (maybe be more).

As someone who pretty much plunged straight into SDXL, honestly I think the workflow should be more like "try and create your image using SD1.5" (because you have so many more models and Loras to choose from that can be accurate) -> "inpaint in SDXL" (because SD1.5 models will struggle on minutia). Using SDXL only has resulted in considerably less creativity in my outputs, partially because 1) I don't tend to have to describe to accurate to get good outputs, resulting in more generic results and 2) all of the SDXL loras and checkpoints are still only like 1/4 of what I can pull in with SDXL. I'd have to have a much larger computer or more money to start creating my own loras and checkpoints to fully use SDXL atm.

I've tried dozens of checkpoints and this one (v. 4.2) is simply the best (it achieves the right balance between great quality image and lora compatibility/fidelity). Most famous checkpoints have terrible issues with TI's and Loras but not this one. That's why is the best so far. Well done. This is what SDXL should have been from the start. This is the new SDXL for me.

Thank you for your compliment, but you left this comment on the SD1.5 model ;)

ElectricDreamsMar 20, 2024· 1 reaction

@Cyberdelia Yes, i guess it was a little confusing, my wrong. What i wanted to convey is that with this version i don't feel the need to use SDXL and it's "my SDXL version" working on 1.5. Well done.

@ElectricDreams Ah got it! Yes I also have this feeling when working with SD1.5. Still pretty sweet!

critical_pitMar 25, 2024

totally agree, cyberrealistic and picx_real are the only popular models that show both flexibility and realism at a high quality level close to sdxl!

There is something wrong with the fp32 pruned model I think, whenever I try to download it the download is very slow & then it suddenly stops after a few hour, I can't download it, trying for over 3 days now, but still no use, I have usually download speed of 10-12 Mbps when downloading other models here, but this model I can't seem to get a good download speed, average speed is locking in to 90 Kbps even though I have a 200 Mbps broadband speed.

With version 4.2 this model is now IMO on par with epicrealism for detail and even surpasses it in terms of coherency and aesthetics. Great work!
