Same realism — real skin, natural light, true-to-life — no quality loss from 4-bit.
Runs in ComfyUI + the latest Forge (Blackwell only — on older cards use the INT8 / fp8 / GGUF versions instead).

Realism by Stable Yogi · Krea2 · V1.0 EXTENDED
Most turbo models pin you to one setting: change the steps or the guidance and the image falls apart. Extended doesn't. It holds together across a real working range, so you can tune the result instead of accepting it.
⚙️ Settings
Recommended: 16 steps · CFG 2 · Euler · Simple · native 1024²+
Works across: 8–20 steps · CFG 1–3
⚠️ Don't go above CFG 3.
✨ Why you'd want it
Dial in your own look. Lower CFG for soft and natural, higher for punch and contrast. Fewer steps for speed, more for polish. Your call, not the model's.
Extra steps actually pay off. At 16 steps you get the richest version of Muse — deeper light, warmer tone, more presence.
It follows your prompt harder. More guidance headroom means when you ask for a specific scene, you get that scene.
Still quick when you're in a hurry. 8 steps works fine for drafts and batch runs.
🎯 Which one should I use?

As usual - the best models are from Yogi, true since SDXL. Are/will there be BF16 versions available on CivitAI for DL?
Thank you, that's kind of you. Anyone who's been around since the SDXL days has seen plenty come and go, so that means a lot coming from you.
On bf16 though, no plans for it, sorry. Those files are enormous, and the Q8 is near enough indistinguishable from it in practice, so it'd be a big download for something you'd struggle to tell apart. I'd rather keep putting out the builds people can actually run without filling a drive. Hope that's fair enough.
@Stable_Yogi Hi Yogi,
I'm just a random user #9582930213543, but I do appreciate your comment.
Absolutely understandable - I've just noticed that bigger models seem to be handling larger groups with various activities a bit more coherently, but I'll be honest - it might be just my bias. as I haven't tested it accordingly yet.
What I mean is: "There's 6 people in the photo, person 1 does X, person 2 does Y, person 3..." etc. etc.
Or maybe that's just a prompting issue or whatnot...
But that's neither here nor there, what you're saying makes absolute sense, I'm at 4TB of drive space and I'm almost out...
All the best!
Hi Yogi,
v1.5 int8 works great and I absolutely love it. But with v2.0 int8 the skin looks overly smooth without any LORAs applied and same prompt and settings as your example images. Any idea what could be the cause?
Thanks, glad 1.5 is treating you well. And good catch, you're not imagining it, the newer one does lean smoother on skin.
Couple of things going on. The version itself pushes a more polished look, and int8 happens to be the smoothest looking of the formats I put out. If you've got a 50 series card, try the NVFP4 build, it carries a touch of fine grain that breaks up that airbrushed feel and reads a lot more candid. That alone sorts it for most people.
On the prompt side, ask for it directly, skin texture, visible pores, matte skin, and pull out anything like flawless, smooth or airbrushed if it's in there. Lighting matters too, a hard front light is what makes skin go waxy, so something softer or off to the side helps.
And if you still prefer 1.5 for skin, honestly just stay on it. They're different looks rather than one replacing the other.
Incredible model, just mind-blowing. Handles every LORA I throw at it, realistic and illustrative. And likenesses are shockingly good, just put a person's name into your prompt and few key details (eye color, etc.), and it works.
Thank you, that's really good to hear. LoRA compatibility is one of those things I test a lot and still never quite know how it'll go on someone else's setup, so hearing it takes whatever you throw at it is a relief. Glad it's holding up across both the realistic and the illustrative side too, that range is a hard one to keep. If you like how it takes LoRAs, the Extended cut over on my portal gives you more room to push them, worth a look.
Boss! will you be uploading the INT8 version 2.5 soon? The Q8 GGUF is appears to too big 4 my poor 5060Ti 16bg. getting 5090 cost more than three and half grand these days! can u believe it!?(https://www.scan.co.uk/products/zotac-nvidia-geforce-rtx-5090-solid-32gb-gddr7-ray-tracing-graphics-card-dlss-4-21760-cores-2407-mhz)
Works fine on my 16gb card
Im also using other models of 25gb without any problems
