Intro
Another real open weight (Apache 2.0) model released (2026-06-16). That I believe worth some attention.
There are also demo sites to generate some images for test. for free.
Also Available on CivitAi for Generation
2714299 boogu-image-base ⚡50 BUZZ + tips (for 50 STEPS 1024px)
2714686 boogu-image-turbo ⚡8 BUZZ + tips (for 4 STEPS 1024px)
Since model is not yet merged to diffusers and therefore it still not added to SD.Next I am bit limited with testing it. But some generation done using CivitAi
Image Quality
Do not know what to start from. I definitely not the GOAT. It makes mistakes. Images not always perfect but it is not bad either.
Let's see the Ai Art 30 set

So do we got some extra fingers? Yes. Sometimes. But not like everytime.

hands through the glass. yes. also happens

Relatively good with emotions

different type of smiles

let's compare
A photorealistic cinematic scene captured from a slightly low three-quarter angle inside a softly lit apartment hallway. A woman gently pulls her husband's tie toward her with a playful yet tender smile, stopping him just before he leaves for work. His expression mixes surprise, affection, and quiet admiration. Warm morning sunlight streams through a nearby window, creating soft rim lighting and subtle lens flare across polished wooden floors. Their faces remain close while the background falls into creamy bokeh. Natural body language, realistic fabric textures, delicate skin details, elegant color grading, intimate storytelling, authentic emotions, high dynamic range, shallow depth of field, aesthetically pleasing composition, refined editorial photography style.might be a bit over exaggerated, but some emotions captured)

and some other models

Illustrative at first glance looks good

or

let's check also test v3
it is some mistakes also spotted

and also, some defaulting to illustrative stile

but in general, it is ok
like 1970 N.Y. Street

old gas station

pixel art

yes, it is important) check if model know Oslo Opera House. It knows

foreshortening is also mostly ok

and that complex surreal art is not pushing model into the darkness mess

Base is not in scope of this article, but it is usable. Some models have base only for training that is generate some trash content, In Boogu we can generate with it.

Oh.. wait.. an ASCII art (it is in test 1 and 2, but let's execute it now:
Turbo

Base

more like extreme pixel art, but at least it trying to.
Test edit

middle painting replaced with scissors abstract art
