Description
V6 — Natural Portrait Realism
V6 is tuned for lifelike, editorial-style portraits that hold up in close-ups and groups. It renders clean skin, true-to-life lighting, and believable fabric/hair detail while staying responsive to prompts (poses, outfits, moods). Works for SFW lifestyle and tasteful NSFW sets.
What it does well (based on your images)
Group & duo portraits without face collapse; consistent identities across the frame.
Close-up realism: pores, lashes, subtle freckles; crisp yet natural eyes.
Texture fidelity: mesh/knit fabrics, belts/buckles, camouflage patterns, braided & curly hair.
Lighting control: soft indoor, daylight/beach, window light; balanced contrast and shadow roll-off.
Prompt adherence: outfits/props/locations follow instructions without drifting.
Quick Start (SDXL)
Sampler: LCM (Euler a also good)
Steps: 6-10
CFG: 1.1-2.1
Resolution: 832×1216, 1024×1024, 1024×1360, 1216×832 (native SDXL sizes)

FAQ

Bait model, nice images but only from offsite generation. Onsite generated all crap.
Looks more like a skill issue buddy , feel free to ask for help, DM me on civit chat.
@Stable_Yogi I have pretty much the same problems. Even if i copy the seed, sampler and prompts etc. over, the images I get don't look anything like the original. I have been using plenty of sdxl models without problems.
@Lucas_Kane My images are generated in A1111, and you may be trying to recreate them in Comfy ui, thats the main difference.
these UIs have very different results. Try A1111 and see the magic.
@Stable_Yogi Actually, I am also using A1111. I will try a few different things. Running it through all samplers and schedulers.
@Stable_Yogi Forget what I said. I am stupid. I downloaded the wrong model. I used the pony version instead of the SDXL version. The SDXL version actually produces good images.
You seem to like putting out multiple subversions of a release, but have been providing little, to no info as what the differences are between these subversions. This is not helpful, please provide at least some info on what the specific differences are between subversion.
Please check the about this model section.
@Stable_Yogi
I do, but about all I can see differing is minor usage info like suggested samplers, steps, and CFG. Then even that info is something of a pain to get as it is in no way highlighted, so we need to have a tab open for each subversion, and carefully read each part, by part, comparing them.
Although even then, even if you see those things, there's no indication of WHY those differences exist. For instance, you used to indicate the DMD2 ones, were based off of DMD2. Well great, but there was no indication as to what DMD2 even was, and lately you're not even stating that much. After doing a bit of a search on DMD2, I guess you mean it was based on a more porn related model, but since you made no clear indication, I can only assume this is the case, which itself is part of my point. Also you just recently made an ALT version of the DMD2 subversion, but there is no about entry for it, so what is different between the two? Then what's FP16, what's BF16, and why should I care?
You make good models, LoRA, and such, but if you're going to make sub variations of them, please at least clearly indicate what makes one, different from the others, so we can pick which would be right for us, without having to get them all, and test them extensively. I'm sure you know what makes them different, but we can't read your mind, you need to tell us these things directly.
@AImodels4me2use for a little info: BF16 is for data center GPUS, FP16 is for gaming cards.
@Stable_Yogi I agree with @AImodels4me2use, specifically, whats the difference between the last DMD vs DMD_alt ? there is nothing on "about this", I just can see on metadata that DMD is low steps low cfg and DMD_alt is higher cfg and low steps. Is there anything else that can help to figure out what results should we expect by using the different alternatives? thanks, you are doing a superb job but more info is appreciated :)
@rollerinot Thanks for pointing this out 🙏 To make things clearer going forward, I’ll no longer mention FP16/BF16 builds separately.
From now on, I’ll keep only:
Main Version
DMD2 → tuned as a “lightning” LoRA: faster generations with fewer steps and lower CFG.
DMD2 Alt → fine-tuned for broader sampler compatibility, usable from 6 up to 30 steps, with stronger prompt adherence and detail retention.
Both versions are staying up so you can pick whichever matches your workflow best. I’ve also updated the descriptions to make these differences clear.
for now, fp16 is your regular model, bf16 is another model that is good with new hardware.
DMD2 is not a porn thing, DMD2 is a lightning lora its used with Low CFG and Low Steps.
Some people asked me that DMD2 is good with details but at LOW CFG prompt adherence is bad, So i fine tune that and now it can support up to CFG 7 and up to 30 Steps and some more samplers. Check description of the model, its updated with all details. (Still experimental phase)
@Stable_Yogi As an alternate view, I see no problem with your current naming convention, clear enough I would say. Labeling FP16/BF16 builds separately is concise and for me helpful,
@nationalwolftvzz200 okey, great, will continue it that way.
@Stable_Yogi yup it is fine to post as versions as you wish if you think this can be useful to someone. We just need the info. FP16 and BF16 is somehow easy to find googling what's the difference, but some creators just make "alt" or "_b" versions without any explanation and that hurts heheh cheers!
@Stable_Yogi Thanks! BTW the DMD2 Alt fine tune CFG, is a really good step up and very interesting
@rollerinot
Doing a web search for what this, or that assumes the creator is following some degree of a standardized naming structure. Although I've often run into people that just make up their own acronyms, and such, and for some reason assume everyone will know what they are. Then in some cases, their made up acronym is the same as another that already exists, or they just use the wrong one, like people that refer to "free to play", as FTP, rather than F2P, when FTP is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol.
Like for the DMD2, when I did a search here, it sure looked like it was a more porn related model, and even the images Stable_Yogi used for it were had more nudity than for other subversions, so it seemed to fit. I could only assume that was what was going on, when supposedly it refers to a faster image generation model. This is the problem, I can just guess what this, or that means, and my guess could be wrong. Which was why I was asking for at least some extra info. Thankfully, it seems Stable_Yogi agreed to provide more moving forward.
@Stable_Yogi
If you decided you wanted to literally make 50 subversions, that's fine. I'm not saying you should make less, make all the ones you want to.
All I'm saying is I'd like at least a bit more clear info on how each differs. The info you relayed here on the general differences between each sounds good, tell us that, and that would be quite helpful.
@AImodels4me2use https://huggingface.co/tianweiy/DMD2/tree/main
this should help you understand DMD2 in nor Porn, its a lora.
please, tell me the optimal version for the 2070super video card, I successfully used Pony before, but some of the latest versions either take too much time to generate or interrupt the generation process
FP16 is regular model 27 steps. DMD2Alt is faster version with 6 to 27 steps range.
DMD2 ALT should be good for you.
After messing around with v6 more, I find it gets most things right, and between your more recent Babes, and Realism models, Babes v6 was the only one able to produce this one image I wanted to make.
Only notable draw back I've seen so far, is it doesn't seem to handle skin tone as nicely as v5. Latinas for instance often come out lighter in skin tone than with v5.
Absolute great models! But what are the differents to your pro models on patreon?
Thanks for the feedback,
Pro models have more training data usually 10%-30%
CheckpointLoaderSimple
ERROR: Could not detect model type of: G:\ComfyUI\models\checkpoints\SUPIR-v0F.ckpt
it cant word,i need help
CheckpointLoaderSimple > hopefully not meant to load SUPIR-v0F.ckpt, use supir node for that.
I'm trying to find this exact model here on civitai:
Babes By Stable Yogi (Pony) - PONY_V3_VAE :: Pony Checkpoint :: Tungsten
I don't see any on here that say "PONY_V3_VAE", all Does that exact model exist here on this site and if so, could you please link it? I'd like to try it on this site and also would like to give it a nice review. It really works amazing.
Thank you!
One of my favorite models. It is really good at doing what you say in the prompt. Its the only model I've used that does cellulite booties without having to use LORAS for it and it makes curvy to HUGE without really needing a LORA as well as muscular physiques, good stuff! thank you for this model.
THIS MODEL IS SO F****** HOT.
Anyone knows the trick to get a hand held selfie from front camera (not mirror selfie with phone visible). there is a lora for this but it's with faces and messes up my lora character.
I think the best way to get that kind of angle is to use the prompt:
(she is taking a selfie in her room, arm out, from above)
this gives the angle you're looking for 😁
(I've uploaded some examples in my gallery 👍)
USE SELFSHOT AND REACTOR THE FACE ON AFTER
I usually use selfies with weighting.
i used to use v 3
but now i decided to use v6 and this issue came up
tensor with all NaNs was produced in VAE.
Web UI will now convert VAE into 32-bit float and retry.
To disable this behavior, disable the 'Automatically revert VAE to 32-bit floats' setting.
To always start with 32-bit VAE, use --no-half-vae commandline flag
how do i fix this?
--no-half-vae add to args, or join discord and share more details .
thanks
Am using the V6 FP16 model and I am absolutely just loving it! Some of my fav generations from it:
https://civitai.com/posts/26189700
I know this is not the focus of this series, but I have to say it does hands and feet very well for every model I have used (SD XL, Pony, Illustrious). Pleasing results across the board, except for SD XL version which generates very over saturated colors even with alternate VAE and extremely low CFG.
