We evaluate the Mind Craft Studio (Mac) models
1) ERNIE-Image Turbo (4-bit) - ERNIE-IMAGE (~6.5GB) 8-step distilled text-to-image model (vivid, high-contrast style).
This is the only one I save, I will create models on Civitai, both to use it as a base model, and on my Mac, a little slower than the other models, but still good.

All that glitters is not gold.
2) Lens Turbo (6-bit) - LENS (~17GB) 4-step text-to-image model from Microsoft
3) Qwen-Image-2512 (6-bit)- QWEN (~31GB) Strong prompt understanding and world knowledge.
Lens Turbo is good, but one generation takes 450-500 seconds per image, not to mention Qwen Image, too slow, up to 1500 seconds per image, not to mention the quality which is similar to Stable Diffusion older versions.
