I am admittedly kind of a noob at this, but if you enjoy my humble work, any donations are greatly appreciated: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://ko-fi.com/insult_to_ninjary">https://ko-fi.com/insult_to_ninjary</a>Your generosity helps me stay motivated to keep improving and to keep trying new things!At a Glance:<ul><li>Style: Realistic</li><li>Works with LoRAs?: It should (I don't use a ton of realistic LoRAs, but it seemed ok!)</li><li>VAE: vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned is baked (but you can override if desired)</li><li>Clip skip: 1 or 2 (experiment with both!)</li><li>Hires. fix: use non-default upscaler; denoising strength 0.5 - 0.4</li></ul>Description:I was gonna stop attempting realistic merges after already making two, but this one kinda showed some promise, so I decided to share one more.I have a hard time telling realistic models apart, unless they really do something very obviously different in terms of style. This one seems mostly similar to a lot of other general realistic models, but I feel that it's maybe a bit more creative than my other two realistic merges at least. Maybe it's just anecdotal or a small sample size, but I feel I get a bit more facial variety and interesting details compared to my other realistic merges.The downside, of course, is hands and fingers (surprise, surprise...). Certain hand positions/poses usually come out pretty good, but others can be pretty rough. Luckily, the hand model in adetailer occasionally does an ok job at fixing the hands and salvaging your picture, but it can also be pretty hit and miss.The face model in adetailer, as always, works relatively well, but I feel that while adetailer makes the faces look better, it also makes them look noticeably more generic than what the model does by itself. So if your face came out pretty well from the start, it's a tradeoff if refining the fine details is worth it in exchange for losing some of the uniqueness of the appearance.Troubleshooting:<ul><li>In general, the biggest issue you're going to come across is problems with anatomy - hands, fingers, etc. Sometimes just some general weirdness. If you have issues, just try your best with all the usual fixes - different prompting, use a different VAE, try different clip skip values, use adetailer, inpaint, etc.</li></ul>Outro:If you make anything awesome, please consider posting them to the gallery! That goes for all of my models! I really like seeing what kind of stuff you all are able to make!If you have any questions, feel free to ask! I will try my best to help! Also, if you have any ideas for future models, please don't hesitate to share them with me!
