So I will begrudgingly ask; if you like what I do and would like to support my models. Consider donating on <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://ko-fi.com/ndimensional">Ko-Fi </a>💗 I will be begin posting updates, answering questions, taking feedback, and releasing early access (NOT EXCLUSIVE) models to supporters.All donations will be used to fund the creation of new Stable Diffusion fine-tunes and open-source AI tools.<hr /><h2 id="about-vmfh0bg2f">About</h2>Continuing from the <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/5062/clarity">original Clarity model for SD1.5</a>, Clarity XL is an attempt to recreate and expand the original models capabilities within the more complex architecture of SDXL.<h3 id="differences-between-clarity-sd1.5-and-clarity-xl-gfkcgi3wp">Differences between Clarity SD1.5 and Clarity XL</h3>Currently, Clarity XL focuses purely on photorealism. This is intentional to build the foundation which will be expanded upon in future releases. That's not to say Clarity XL will ever be a general purpose model. It will always have a bias towards photorealism. Future releases will add more complex photorealistic/cinematic scene capabilities.Improvements<ul><li>Emphasis on authentic (non touched-up) photorealism.</li><li>Higher Image Fidelity.</li><li>Prompt Adherence: How well the model follows your prompt.<ul><li>Excluding concepts that the model was not trained on</li></ul></li><li>Improved skin textures</li><li>Overall improvements to aesthetics.</li><li>Video Game / Movie character recognition.<ul><li>Including worlds spaces, landscapes, settings, ect..</li></ul></li><li>Prompt how you want: Accepts natural language prompts, comma delimited-lists, a hybrid of the two. In addition, prompts can be as short or long as you'd like.</li></ul>Limitations<ul><li>Complex scenes, such as <code>firing lighting bolts from hand, erupting in a cacophony of bright blue sparkling arcs.</code></li><li>Multi-medium generation: The model is currently grounded in photorealism and cinematography.</li></ul><h3 id="model-details-vzmi20tsm">Model Details</h3><ul><li>Base Model: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0">Stable Diffusion XL v1.0</a><ul><li>Since Clarity XL v1 is a mid-training epoch.
