    Chroma Advanced Workflow - v1.0
    NSFW
    Preview 113816355

    After fiddling with settings for several days, I think I found something that works as well as Chroma is capable of without getting into the workflow black arts.

    It's a slow workflow because Chroma is slow. However, it can give really good results.

    Designed to work with 16GB of VRAM. May work with less.

    Includes Ultimate SD Upscale and FaceDetailer with optional toggles to turn it on and off.

    Suggested Settings for V2:
    CFG: 1

    Steps: 20

    Sampler: DEIS_2M

    Scheduler: Beta57

    I'm REALLY loving this workflow - only problem I have is that often when I'm using male subjects I get "body hair gore" on the upscaler step - either large patches of FUR or faces peeking out - no matter what I do to the prompts.

    That's odd.

    How much are you trying to upscale?

    You might try lowering the denoise on the upscale node a bit, but that will risk some quality.

    If you give me a prompt that's resulting in the issue, I can try testing it as well.

    @ChillDesire That would be awesome if you could take a look at it. I didn't touch your settings at all, so you've got the same numbers i do (upscale by 1.5), except I set the generation at 1344x768- I did try and lower the denoise a bit on the upscaler, and yeah, it's not the best.

    Might also be my prompting <shrug>

    Here's my prompts (sorry, it's nsfw, albeit "art")

    Positive: A photorealistic, ultra-detailed cinematic photograph of an intimate, decadent moment in a dimly lit, opulent chamber.

    Ben: A stocky, powerfully built 45-year-old man with dense body hair, a long blonde beard, messy short blonde hair, and piercing ice-green eyes. He lounges on a pile of plush furs and silk, his left hand holding a golden goblet filled with deep red wine. His right hand loosely holds a cluster of grapes. His thick body hair is damp with sweat, catching the soft, golden light, and his uncut penis rests naturally against his thigh, semi-erect. Juice glistens on his lips and beard from the grapes.

    Expression & Connection: Ben’s expression is one of lazy indulgence, his ice-green eyes half-lidded and mouth slightly parted, his breath slow and content. His body is relaxed, every muscle at ease, his posture open and unselfconscious in the opulent surroundings.

    Composition: A widescreen medium-wide shot capturing Ben’s full body reclined on the furs and silk, with the golden goblet in his left hand and grapes in his right. The framing emphasizes the luxurious setting while keeping Ben as the focal point, his semi-erect penis and sweat-slicked body naturally included. The camera angle pulls back just enough to show the textures of the furs, silk, and his muscular frame, with the blurred background hinting at tapestries and carved furniture.

    Lighting: A single, diffused golden light source (like a candle or oil lamp) casts a warm, Baroque-inspired glow across his chest hair, beard, and the fabrics around him. The deep shadows accentuate the textures of the furs, silk, and his body, while the background remains dark and softly blurred, creating a dramatic, chiaroscuro effect.

    Environment: Sharp detail in the plush furs, silk, and velvet cushion near Ben’s body, with the golden goblet and grapes catching the light. The background is dark and opulent, with blurred tapestries, carved wooden furniture, and flickering candlelight suggesting a richly decorated chamber.

    Mood: Decadent, sensual, and artistic—like a Caravaggio painting of a hedonistic king, with no stylization or cartoonish effects. The atmosphere is raw yet luxurious, with lifelike textures: the coarse furs, smooth silk, sweat on his skin, and the reflective sheen of the wine. The widescreen composition draws the viewer’s eye across the scene, emphasizing the opulence and indulgence of the setting.

    Negative: This is a low-quality digital render or illustration. The image is blurry, unfinished, or uncreative, with visible artifacts, logos, or text overlays. The anatomy is incorrect or exaggerated, with bad hands, deformed feet, extra fingers, or deformed penis. The body appears overly lean, overly muscular, or stylised like a bodybuilder or twink. The image includes feminine anatomy or vaginal features. Objects intersecting with the body, limbs merging with furniture, tools passing through the torso. Poor spatial separation, impossible object placement. The aesthetic is artificial, cartoonish, or synthetic rather than natural and photographic. Skin texture looks plastic and smooth. His body hair is thin or sparse. There is no hair on his shoulders and back. The image contains accidental or illusory faces, facial features, or face-like patterns formed by shadows, hair, folds, or body parts.

    @iam440 I believe I got your image to generate well using V2 of this workflow.

    Suggest you use the Chroma-Flash-Huen Rank 128 Lora and the Lenovo UltraReal Lora with this for better results.

    @ChillDesire Whoa - not only better results but really great prompt adherence compared to v1 - great job!!!! Thanks :)
