    This is a refined version of the original Krea 2 Turbo Distill LoRA from TheDivergentAI.

    Base Model: Use with Krea 2 base model only.

    What I did:

    Removed unnecessary blocks to make the file smaller

    Adjusted remaining blocks to keep image quality high

    Allows the base model to have more control over results

    Faster loading and generation

    Original LoRA by: TheDivergentAI

    Original source: https://huggingface.co/TheDivergentAI/krea2-turbo-distill-lora

    Note: This is experimental. Test it yourself to see if you like the results.

    Examples included: Original vs Refined comparison images with full metadata and workflows in the ZIP file.

    Workflow: https://civarchive.com/models/2608465/qwen-and-krea-2-sam3-face-inpainting-workflow

    Removed Blocks & Their Functions:

    other_weights - General model adjustments and miscellaneous parameters

    first - Initial layer processing at the start of generation

    last - Final layer processing at the end of generation

    txtfusion - Text fusion features for prompt blending

    block_1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12 - Lower-impact transformer blocks with minimal contribution to final output

    Kept: 19 most important blocks (block_0, 5, 6, 10, 13-27) that provide the strongest style and quality improvements.


    Version 1.1 - What's Improved:

    ✅ Dynamic Angles Restored

    Found and adjusted the blocks responsible for varied, interesting compositions.

    No more perfectly symmetrical. Images now have natural, dynamic perspectives.

    ✅ More Details & Sharpness

    Bumped up values in key blocks that handle fine textures.

    Images are sharper and clearer.

    ✅ Smaller & Faster

    Trimmed down to just 13 essential blocks (from 31).

    Faster loading and generation, smaller file size.

    What I did:

    I tested different block combinations to find which ones control angles and details. Then, I slightly increased their values to bring back the quality while keeping the file lean.

    Important Note on Sample Images:

    The sample images here were generated using only the Rank 256 Version 1.1 LoRA. If you want to compare them with the original or Version 1, please check the sample images on the V1 page.

    Note: Still experimental - test it and see if you like the results!

    Thanks for this. From your samples, there is definitely quality loss: For bubble-lady and the dragonfly, the camera shifts to a less interesting angle: it's perfectly on axis and symmetrical. The market scene has less variety: in particular the sacks on the left shift to complete uniformity in size, height, and position. The underwater lady shifts to a less interesting, more symmetrical composition in the background. I mention this in case it's fixable. For some, the pros may outweigh the cons.

    Thanks for the detailed feedback. You are absolutely right. Looking at the images, removing lower impact blocks caused the compositions to become too symmetrical and uniform (like the perfectly centered dragonfly and identical market sacks). Those blocks were clearly responsible for dynamic angles and natural variety.

    I will try to adjust those blocks to fix the composition issues and upload an updated version soon.

    @eagle42 separately from turbo-ization, If you've discovered blocks that are responsible for dynamic angles and variety, and if it's possible to adjust them in order to increase that effect alone, I think that would be an extremely popular lora!

    @terrariyum I am working on it. The problem is testing different block combinations and values takes a lot of time and patience. There are also other factors like seed, prompt, and steps to consider. For the turbo effect, you don't need all layers I have reduced it to 12 blocks and still get good results. I am still hunting for the specific block responsible for dynamic angles.
