Another SDXL attempt. Not sure if I'm getting anywhere, but I kinda like it

Mostly draw style will be another, but you will still use upscale on latent space (hires fix + latent upscaler in terms of A1111) to get sharp image with more details like you do on SD1.5
Also if you will try pony diffusion you absolutely need to use LoRA that changes draw style. Out of the box it will draw worse than even SD1.5 model.

Thanks a lot. I'll take any hint that I can. I've been playing around with SDXL a bit. I love the improved prompt comprehension and anatomy, especially with multiple characters, but stylistically I always end up with a comic like look. Not to say that I don't like it - it's still awesome, but my preferences lean towards more realism. Haven't managed that yet.

Guess I gotta jump on that Lora bandwagon then. From what I see, in Pony-Land it's normal to slap on 4-5 Loras on every gen. This still confuses me greatly (on SD15 I mostly go without), but guess I gotta experiment more.

So again, Thank you for your suggestions

chilon249, the author of YiffyMix, pasted his method of realistic style for his YiffyMix SDXL version

I quote him

I build a new SDXL "realistic style" prompt.

Prompt:

BREAK

by Mandy Disher, by Wim Wenders, by Robert Rauschenberg, by Fossa666

ultra realistic, photorealism, photograph

Negative prompt:

sketch, manga, line art, toony

Optional artist:

"by Fossa666" this artist enhance fur, more feral like.

"by Robert Rauschenberg" this artist enhance quality.

On my case works best with hires fix (upscale on latent space on comfyUI)

If you will try Pony family for realistic style, read comments of that image

I'm going to give that a try. I think I saw that before, but didn't have much luck with birds. Will experiment with it some more
