All models are trained with ai-generated DALL-E images and don't resemble real humans
Short version for lower attention span (Applies strongly for v1 and v2, and somewhat for v3 too):
Use Euler A or DPM++ 3M SDE (v3 only, older versions require Euler A).
dpm++_2s_ancestral takes longer, but gives very good results too, maybe the best but it's too slow for me.
Don't use karras, AYS, gits. Only SGM uniform/normal/simple works as intended.
I've started to notice SGM_uniform smoothes things a bit. Use Normal if you need more details. But NO - AYS or Karras or Exponential.
Score tags are still useful, but not necessary. Removing them makes the model more creative and less prone to 1girl. Preserves most of the quality too.
VAE is included
If you want to support the creation of more models like this, or you just like what you see (I could really use it, very broke at the moment): ko-fi (。♥‿♥。).
Generation Parameters (VERY IMPORTANT):
Only use "EULER A" with SGM UNIFORM. Nothing works better for this one, even after extensive testing. (v2 and v1)
Use 30+ steps. Do NOT use any other scheduler apart from SGM UNIFORM. Don't use Karras or AYS or exponential. EDIT: The newer version might handle different samplers, but the scheduler still has to be SGM uniform/normal/simple.
Simple and Normal work, but SGM uniform makes the best gens.
Hi-res fix (normal or UltimateSDUpscale) is very much recommended. Half the steps of the original gen, denoise at 0.28. Euler A + sgm_uniform again. I also recommend Ultrasharp 4x or NMKD Siax as the upscale model.
CFG can be between 4 to 10. Use higher for more creativity, lower for more realism. I use AutomaticCFG's hard mode in ComfyUI, so I prefer CFG 9 for my gens. Normal CFG usage might vary.
Description
v1 -Base
Version 1:
Tool used: ComfyUI-DareMerge
Base - Quintessence V1 (DARE-Ties merge between TAME Pony v2 (Base), SnowPony v1, WAI-ANI-NSFW-PONYXL v8)
The resulting final version is everything I wanted from a Pony realistic model. Enjoy!
Keep in mind that I am very new to this, and if you love this model make sure to check out the recommended ones. Special thanks to @zyxt99565 for making the TAME Pony checkpoint, which I used as the first version base for this one. Do give it a try too as that might be one of the best "raw realism" SDXL/Pony checkpoints ever released.
I wanted to augment some of the gritty realism it provides with a bit of the more dynamic Pony concepts according to my personal preferences. DARE-TIES merging is incredible and I experimented some stuff while making this. Thus this model was born
