When viewing at the original resolution, at about half-way across (starting through her left eye) there are some odd vertical pixelization? scanlines? happening. Then lower in the image there are horizontal scanlines, starting from the level of her nipples, and where it meets with the vertical scanlines you get pixelly cubes. Weird. But this seems to be an artifact from your generation because you have other images with the same thing happening. (eg post #38027 ) Love the pics btw, just mentioning this for feedback's sake. Thanks.

Thanks. I haven't noticed that before. I'll try and investigate what went wrong here. I guess the artifacts got introduced during upscaling. The source was a bit grainy (i messed up the original generation parameters. Noise was left in the image in the final step. I tried to re-generate, but i could not get the same composition --> i gave up and used a smoothing upscaler :D )

I'll try to do better next time :)

Thanks for letting me know. Just did some troubleshooting, and I believe i've found the issue. Indeed it was the upscale. I've been running the upscale process using NCNN, running the same upscalers with Pytorch works fine. Again, thanks for noticing. Apparently I never zoomed to 1:1 scale. Zooming out even a little bit was enough to hide them from view. Now that I know, I'll fix my postprocessing steps ;)
