This model represents the new Willy’s Realism line and is now considered the Primary branch, while the original Willy’s Noob Realism model is considered the Legacy branch.

Version Information
Core v1
This model was rebuilt from the ground up to serve as a clean, consistent baseline for realistic image generation using a Noob-based foundation. While it uses many of the same modern resources and backbone models as previous versions, this version focuses on improving overall generation quality, and upscaling performance without the compounding issues caused by heavy merge inbreeding.
Prompting methods remain very similar to Willy’s Noob Realism, and users familiar with the Legacy branch models should feel right at home.
Because this is a fresh baseline, some of the more specific improvements or quirks from previous versions are not fully carried over yet. These will be reintroduced over time as the model continues to evolve.
Recommended Settings:
TL:DR - Prompt normally using the Noob quality tags. For realism add tags like "detailed, realistic, photorealistic, hyper realistic, sharp focus". My personal favorite generation settings are Euler Ancestral or DPM++ SDE with Beta but feel free to play around and find something you like. CFG range of 4-6 works best for most images.
Recommended prompting format:
<quality tags>, detailed, realistic, photorealistic, hyper realistic, sharp focus, <style tags>, <character tags>, <pose tags>, <background tags> Positive prompt example:
masterpiece, best quality, absurdres, newest, detailed, hyper realistic, (realistic:1.25), (photorealistic:1.25), (sharp focus:1.15), 1girl, anthro, wolf, grey fur, fully-clothed, standing, looking at viewer, posing, bedroom,Recommended negative prompt:
blurry background, low res, out of focus, (blurry:1.2), worst aesthetic, early, old, worst quality, anime, manga, cgi, illustration, digital artwork, 3d render, (painting, picture frame), watermark, text,If you are getting unwanted humans or human-like body parts add "human" to the negative.
These are my personal recommendations, but feel free to experiment and use what ever settings you feel works for you!
Common Problems:
My recommended settings are just my personal recommendations for use with ComfyUI and have not been properly tested with other front ends.
If you are seeing artifacts please make sure your generation settings are set correctly and that you are using the correct VAE. Reforge may use a bugged VAE by default.
This model uses V-Prediction and related settings may need to be set manually.
Some Loras trained on EPS models can cause issues with color, lighting, or other aspects of your image when used with this model. Not all Loras will have these problems.
Description
This is the first release version of Willy's Realism Core.
This new Willy's Realism variant was merged from the ground up with no inbreeding of older versions using a combination of old resources that were the backbone of the older versions of the model and newer resources while focusing on overall generation and upscale quality.
This model variation does not include all of the improvements from previous Willy's Realism models, but is the new baseline for the next generation of Willy's Realism models.
This is a v-prediction model.

Hi, do you have any plans to make a realistic furry / feral model based on Qwen or Z-image? Or something else in the 12-18 GB range...
For some reason, no one makes such models (except Ratatoskr, but I can't get decent results with them).
I made a Z-Image Lora that is here on Civit. It took 3 days to train and the dataset was partially flawed. It can get you some pretty decent results out of Z-Image but does have the 3d render sort of style that the Legacy Branch was basically known for.
With the right prompting though you can get some pretty decent results out of it. Just be warned that it doesn't play well with some other Z-Image Loras because it was trained before Base was out.

@willywizard It looks too 3D.
And I'd really like to see a larger model that can do a lot of things out of the box.
Maybe you know any such models?
@MrA1ex If you know how to prompt for it properly, I’ve seen some decent furry things coming out of Klein recently, I personally haven’t looked very into it though.
Lodestone’s Chroma model is pretty okay, it’s a furry fine tune of Flux 1 (Schnell I think? Although has unique architectural changes to it)
From what I understand though, what you are looking for doesn’t exactly exist right now, and I don’t think anyone is currently working on anything like that.
I personally would if I could, but I don’t have the hardware or the funds.
Chroma is super capable, having tested it recently. I wish more people would invest in it, it has great potential.
