    phenidone is an early work in progress photorealistic Illustrious checkpoint.

    Compared to anime Illustrious checkpoints, you should expect it to:

    • Handle high resolutions worse

    • Have worse consistency relating to composition and anatomy

    Compared to photorealistic Pony checkpoints, you should expect it to:

    • Have worse skin-texture

    • Have worse background and scene coherence and detail

    But in general, you can look forward to a breath of fresh air; and hopefully you can have fun experimenting with it.

    Settings I use:

    832x1216 and 1024x1496 , 30 Steps, Euler A, 5 - 12 cfg

    I recommend trying varying cfg based on what results you're after; here are examples of 5, 7, and 12 cfg.

    Grids generated with these prompt styles,
