BadWolf Anthro Realism is a photorealistic anthro/furry style LoRA for Krea 2.

It is intended to push anthropomorphic characters away from the half-human appearance that Krea 2 can sometimes associate with furry and fantasy characters, while also overcoming the digital-art, CGI, or 3D-rendered look that anime and furry finetunes can heavily associate with fantasy species or anthro characters and, while retaining the underlying species, character design, pose, clothing, environment, and other concepts already understood by the base model.

BadWolf is mainly focused on anthro characters, but it can also help with fantasy creatures and other non-human subjects. In practice, BadWolf mainly improves the realism of fur, scales, feathers, skin, lighting, depth, and overall photographic appearance.

BadWolf is primarily a style and realism LoRA, not a species, character, or anatomy LoRA. However, due to the dataset, early versions may contain some unintended biases or learned associations.

Version 0.3:

This version should be treated as an early development release. It has some notable anatomical and body-type biases, as well as some accidentally learned associations. It works well with Krea 2, Wulver, and Kroma.

Usage

Use with Krea 2.

Recommended LoRA strength: 0.3 - 1.0

I notice that the images can get a bit crispy on the higher end, so I personally use the LoRA at around 0.5 strength.

BadWolf does not use a dedicated trigger word, but phrases such as photorealistic and/or photograph can help activate the intended style depending on the base model.

Natural-language and tag-based prompting both work well. You can describe the character normally and use terms such as:

photorealistic photograph, photorealistic, photograph, realistic lighting, natural fur, realistic scales

when additional realism is desired. When used in combination with other style tags, you can generate images with hybrid semi-real styles, or potentially also add additional details to digital art styled images.
