NOT MY MODEL WILL REMOVE IT IF OWNER ASKS
Settings
These are just some examples of the settings I usually use and it's not really a hard requirement so you're free to experiment and see which setting works best for you:
Sampling Method: DPM++ 2M Karras or DPM++ 3M SDE Karras
Sampling Steps: 25 - 50
Hires. fix: On
Upscaler: ESRGAN 4x+ or 4x_NMKD-Siax_200k (if you have it)
Hires Steps: I usually put it at 0 so it'll be the same as Sampling Steps
Denoising Strength: 0.15 - 0.3
Upscale: 1.5 - 2
CFG Scale: 4.5 - 7
WARNING : Hires fix is a hard requirement, unless you want a blurry mess of an image
Prompts
best quality, masterpiece, intricate details, dynamic pose, dynamic angle, (surreal), (illustration), ((oil painting \(medium\):1.2))
Negatives
3d, lowres, worst quality, watermark, signature, bad-hands-5, ng_deepnegative_v1_75t, EasyNegative, bad-artist-anime
Note: You can experiment with your own prompt of course but this is what I used to get that abstract and painterly look
Extra Tips
Try to keep the prompts short and concise. No need to fill up the prompts with unnecessary wording that does the same thing like high detail, ultra detail, absurdres, hires, photorealistic, hyperrealistic, etc. Keep it simple.
ADetailer is key if you want to get good looking faces. If you're generating a close up shot or portrait, most of the time you won't need it. But if its a full body or far shot, ADetailer is absolutely necessary unless you wanna get distorted or blurry looking faces.
Hires fix is mandatory, especially for far and wide shots where a lot of details are getting lost.
Use negative embeddings instead if writing paragraphs of words into the negative prompts. Here are some examples of the ones I usually use:
