Description
Improved prompt adherence, image quality, overall details. Outputs are far more refined with more detail.
Skin texture improved (no more airbrushed faces of 4.0 ), improved eyes. Clothes and fabrics have been hugely improved aswell.
All in all, much better at photorealism than 4.0 whilst preserving artstyles and model creativity which actually has been expanded since the last version. Such thing is a rare achievement in itself.
Please take in consideration using the EH ecosystem (photographic, artistic tools and such linked on suggested resources) is highly recommended to make the most of Event Horizon series capabilities.
To sum up, Event Horizon 5.0 is a very stable, well rounded and balanced version so it probably is gonna take a lot of time to improve, in any significant way, upon it. On the other hand, I'm very satifisfied with this last version: it meets the quality standards i was aiming for.
Enjoy.
