About

To be honest, I made the SDXL version even before any of the Pony version, but I never posted it because I didn't think it was good enough. But the Pony models are never quite able to grasp the level of realism that you get with SDXL models. I was going to make a separate page for SDXL, but it just gets tedious with multiple model pages, so I'll just leave this here as a 'new version'. Does this mean I'm abandoning Pony? Not really. But I'll be posting new versions for both Pony and SDXL here.

Warning!

The SDXL version is technically still a work in progress, so expect a few defects and mishaps when generating. The biggest problem with the model is that it likes to default to and stuff. So unless you specify the clothing that your character wears, it will try to make them with random parts. Also, the prompt adherence level is what you'd expect from an SDXL model. And generation is also a bit of a hit-and-miss, sometimes it looks good, sometimes it doesn't. So if you want to make stuff, you're better off using the Pony version since this model is better suited for SFW and semi- photography.

About

A Pony based model aimed at creating realistic images similar to my HomoFidelis model. While it is better at following prompts, especially for things like body parts and positions, in some ways it is still pretty limited when it comes to creative gens. And since its a PDXL model, it still has that 'Pony realism' look that's not quite photorealistic but I'm hoping to change that in later updates.
