<h1 id="selfora-realistic-amateur-checkpoint-(krea-2-turbo-uncensored)">Selfora — realistic amateur checkpoint (Krea 2 Turbo, uncensored)</h1>Selfora is a realism-first merge on Krea 2 Turbo built for one thing: believable amateur, shot-on-a-phone photos. Real skin with pores and texture, candid lighting, natural bodies — the kind of frame that looks like a selfie off someone's camera roll, not a glossy studio render. Ideal for AI-influencer / Instagram-style model content. Ideal for AI-influencer / Instagram-style model content. For that look with zero guesswork, pair it with my companion workflow — presets already tuned for this exact amateur-selfie output. → <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/2776713/selfism-optimal-krea-2-v1-one-node-prompter-or-face-styler">Selfism Optimal Krea 2 v.1</a>. Every style LoRA is baked straight into the checkpoint — always on, nothing to stack or juggle. Fully uncensored, and just as strong on clean SFW. And it's Turbo, so you get there in a handful of steps.Selfora started as a personal project — built for my own use and convenience, to get this exact look without stacking LoRAs every time. It came out well enough that I'm sharing it.

Just describe the scene.<h3 id="keywords-for-the-best-results-with-selfora">Keywords for the best results with Selfora</h3>The amateur / phone look is already baked in — you don't need any of these to get it. They just help you dial in a specific vibe (lighting, night, candid, camera) and get the most out of the model. Mix a couple from each group — you don't need all of them:<ul><li>Amateur / candid base: <code>amateur iphone selfie</code>, <code>candid facial expression</code>, <code>casual everyday appearance</code>, <code>unposed</code>, <code>friend-circle snapshot quality</code>, <code>instagram story upload quality</code></li><li>iPhone / camera look: <code>shot on iPhone</code>, <code>iPhone 15 Pro photo</code>, <code>warm iphone color science</code>, <code>soft computational HDR</code>, <code>soft phone bokeh</code>, <code>slight sensor grain</code>, front-camera selfie → <code>wide-angle front-camera distortion</code></li><li>Real skin (the realism boost): <code>natural unretouched skin texture</code>, <code>visible pores and freckles</code>, <code>minor blemishes</code>, <code>slight oily T-zone</code>, <code>natural makeup or bare face</code>, <code>realistic catchlights in eyes</code></li><li>Grittier / night (optional): <code>low light phone photo</code>, <code>ISO 6400 sensor noise</code>, <code>slight motion blur</code>, <code>handheld</code>, <code>warm tungsten light</code>, <code>night mode processing</code></li><li>Candid energy: <code>mid-laugh</code>, <code>genuine unposed expression</code>, <code>slightly tired eyes</code>, <code>casual</code></li></ul>Avoid (these push it toward studio/AI-gloss): <code>professional photography</code>, <code>studio lighting</code>, <code>DSLR</code>, <code>cinematic</code>, <code>retouched / airbrushed</code>, <code>8k</code>. At CFG 1 the negative prompt is ignored, so simply don't put these in the positive if you want the amateur look.💡 Don't want to type any of this? Use the Selfism_Krea2_optimal_v1 workflow. All of the above — the exact amateur styling, lighting, camera looks and candid vibes — is already dialed in as ready one-click presets. It's tuned specifically for Selfora, so for this exact look with zero prompt fiddling, running Selfora inside Selfism is the easiest, most reliable way.<h2 id="content">Content</h2>Uncensored, NSFW and SFW both. It favors realistic amateur NSFW, but clean portraits and everyday shots come out just as well.<h2 id="best-with-my-selfism_krea2_optimal_v1-workflow">Best with my Selfism_Krea2_optimal_v1 workflow</h2>Selfora runs best in my Selfism_Krea2_optimal_v1 workflow — it ships with lots of ready-made presets tuned for the selfie / amateur look and a full set of face-detailer presets, and the two sets are built to complement each other: the scene/selfie preset sets the shot, the face preset finishes the skin and detail — together they give a cohesive, consistent result. Powered by two custom nodes — Artfat LLM Prompter (image/text → prompt, on-device) and Artfat Face Preset (one-click phone-camera face presets). Load Selfora, pick your presets, shoot.👉 Workflow: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/2776713/selfism-optimal-krea-2-v1-one-node-prompter-or-face-styler">Selfism Optimal Krea 2 v.1 ( ONE NODE PROMPTER | FACE STYLER )</a><h2 id="license-and-usage">License &amp; usage</h2>Personal, non-commercial use only.

This v1 is the plain fp8 release.

Selfora Krea 2 (realistic amateur checkpoint)

v1.0 BF16 — full-precision buildUncompressed BF16 weights: no quantization loss, maximum skin detail and the most faithful output of the lineup. Heaviest version — best quality, and the cleanest base for your own quants, merges or LoRA training.Low on VRAM? Take the fp8 or GGUF builds instead.
