Realistic Blend SDXL

This is my first try on a merge of a realistic SDXL model. I tried to give it a bit of a Flux like look. It is somewhat capable of producing NSFW pictures, but can also make good looking SFW pictures.

Since this is a SDXL model, only natural language prompting is supported. Booru tags might work to some degree, but the results will be unstable,

Update Version 2.0

I added 2 additional models to the merge and increased the overall quality of detail. Effects like lighting, shadows or fog now look better then in V1 and the skin details are also a bit more detailed.

I also found out about 2 new samplers that produce nice results with this model:

Euler Smea + Simple (20 steps) = it gives the picture a bit studio like effect (e.g. artificial lighting)

DPM++ 2s pyramid + Align Your Steps (16 steps) = it gives the picture a bit more realistic look with saturated colors

In order to use these samplers you need to use SD Forge and install below additional samplers as an extension:

Recommended settings:

Sampler/Scheduler: DPM++ 2M SDE with Karras / DPM++ SDE with Karras / DPM++ 2S a with Karras
CFG: 2-5 (you can also try higher values, but did not really test it)
Steps: 15-25
Highres fix depending on use case.
