    Samey face issue. Model makers should include more variety and avoid the pretty/insta filter bias

    any idea on what settings to use to train a realistic person usable with this model ?

    What's the difference between v9.0 and v9.0 DMD2?

    Applying DMD2 LoRA
    This allows it to create images faster by using LCM Sampler (Low steps, low CFG)

    I've tested V9 DMD2 extensively. The images are incredibly beautiful, but for me, the best is Euler a/beta with 20 steps and CFG 3.0. Thank you for this, a very nice checkpoint. I love it

    Absolutely cannot recreate preview results from V9, even when copying your entire generation parameters, mine always turn out with the same "bimbo face" (the typical middle-aged pornstar heavy make-up face)

    Tried one, result not a million miles away

    Depends entirely on what is he making those pics and on what you are. For example Forge vs ComfyUI will look a lot different, sometimes drastically.

    antarekNov 28, 2025· 6 reactions

    @Mescalamba Thus the need to specify on which tool an image has been generated. Something that most showcased pics miss because of the author not taking time to have those infos displayed whatever the checkpoint.

    nashidaranMar 22, 2026

    yeah. A model might be able to produce nice results in theory, but if the showcase output requires the author's custom comfyUI (or whichever) workflow to generate anything close to that level of quality and prompt accuracy, then the model isn't nearly as good as advertised.

    The quality of this model is still quite high, but it also misses the "happy balance" on just about every level. The detail and realism are good if you add a couple of effective realism loras, but it can't do ethnicity for shit. the character recognition, body shape control, and face shape pretty bad. The model struggles HARD with the same-face problem even with super heavy weighting on very well-known characters.

    I'm out of the loop. What's DMD and what's the diff between the two v9s?

    V9 is the direct updated version of v8 which got more variety with the face structures

    DMD2 version is v9 with DMD2 LoRA applied

    This version works on scheduler called LCM with only 8 steps, 1.5 CFG which normal version isn't able to

    Although DMD2 works faster, some prompts that worked on normal one cannot work properly

    So, in short: DMD2 version for faster creation, normal version for accurate creation
