    NewBie image Exp0.1

    🧱 Exp0.1 Base

    • NewBie image Exp0.1 is a 3.5B parameter DiT model developed through research on the Lumina architecture.

      Building on these insights, it adopts Next-DiT as the foundation to design a new NewBie architecture tailored for text-to-image generation.

      The NewBie image Exp0.1 model is trained within this newly constructed system, representing the first experimental release of the NewBie text-to-image generation framework.

    Text Encoders

    • We use Gemma3-4B-it as the primary text encoder, conditioning on its penultimate-layer token hidden states. We also extract pooled text features from Jina CLIP v2, project them, and fuse them into the time/AdaLN conditioning pathway. Together, Gemma3-4B-it and Jina CLIP v2 provide strong prompt understanding and improved instruction adherence.

    VAE

    • Use the FLUX.1-dev 16channel VAE to encode images into latents, delivering richer, smoother color rendering and finer texture detail helping safeguard the stunning visual quality of NewBie image Exp0.1.

    Prompt

    • XML structured prompt

    • Natural language prompt

    • Tag prompt

    🖼️ Task type

    NewBie image Exp0.1 is pretrain on a large corpus of high-quality anime data, enabling the model to generate remarkably detailed and visually striking anime style images.

    We reformatted the dataset text into an XML structured format for our experiments. Empirically, this improved attention binding and attribute/element disentanglement, and also led to faster convergence.

    Besides that, It also supports natural language and tags inputs.

    Description

    This is an earlier version prior to data augmentation. While it offers superior aesthetics and abstract expression with more stable limb generation compared to Exp0.1 Base its primary drawbacks are a limited knowledge base and lower conceptual fit.

    This model was a bit more difficult to use, compared to SDXL-based ones. But here's what I found out:
    1. You can use normal tags like you're used to, but XML formatting gives you actual control of the image.
    2. You can use this model in ComfyUI (remember to update!). You don't need to download another version of Comfy or anything like that. Just in DualCLIPLoader select type: newbie.
    3. I'm not sure how to get pleasingly looking images this model. Probably because it's a base. Haven't tried LoRAs yet.
    4. Don't expect this model to be fast. It's comparable to Z-Image Turbo at CFG=1.0 for it/s. But I think the trade-off is worth it for being able to exactly prompt how the image will look like.
    5. FP8 will kill quality drastically but increase speed. I think it's better to wait with FP16. Just use TorchCompileModelAdvanced from KJNodes.

    BaxterJan 5, 2026

    Could you link or upload a workflow that uses the DualClipLoader node? I can't seem to get the newbie clip loader one to work and the official comfyui newbie workflow doesn't seem to use it either

    Newbie is very slow and hard to prompt for good images. Neta Lumina is easier :c

    The quality of the images is really poor, and I don't understand why they're all crooked, distorted, and so on. all the custom illustrious models a re better out of the box. I understand that this is a 0.1 model, but I still expected more.

    BaxterJan 7, 2026

    make sure you prompt with xml format

    I think not,this model is potential

    zombieleaverJan 14, 2026

    @Mostima out of the box, either everything looks very crooked, or the image looks like a "draft" of very rough work. as an ordinary user who is not so well versed in all this internal structure and everything else - so far it does not look very good. There may be something else that needs to be done additionally, but I just don't understand and don't know what the problem might be. Because I see that people have good-looking options.

    I am having the same results, the images other people are getting look amazing though. I think we're both doing something wrong, I tried the workflow that is inside ComfyUI and another one on CivitAI same result

    Its kinda sad that the lack of a CivitAI category is killing the inital hype for this model. This is genuinely the single best anime-themed model in the open source market. Lets hope CivitAI gives it a category soon so more people can take notice...

    Really cool idea, but I really hate XML and it's quite confusing. This could be simplified with a custom ComfyUI node that just puts everything in a text box and outputs the right XML e.g.

    gender:

    [textbox here]

    appearance:

    [textbox here]

    ...

    There is also other markdown formats outside of XML like JSON of course sure you know that one, but also TOML, YAML, if you make another model please consider

    Still learning... The issue with BF16 is that you basically can't run it on old architectures unless you're willing to endure the snail's pace of FP32. The model seems like a good one—at least it has a lot of potential—but the problem is that it's far too dependent on prompt engineering. As someone who can't draw, I've been trying to learn how to write prompts, only to realize that in the time I've spent doing that, I could have actually learned the basics of hand-drawing. Regardless, I appreciate the developers' hard work. It's a very promising architecture, and I’m looking forward to future developments. Also, I'm waiting for an FP16 version.
