# 🎨 ARTY PROJECT — Art Realism

Realism, rethought as art.

KREA2 base × 12 author LoRA · no trigger words needed

ARTY PROJECT began as an experiment in pushing realism toward its artistic

reinterpretation — and the merge found its own voice. It doesn't copy the

world, it authors it: even a plain, realistic prompt comes out as a finished

work — a painting, a staged photograph, or a crafted artifact.

Born by accident, kept on purpose. Documented with a 60-prompt diagnostic

suite.

## What is art realism

With no style word, the model routes your subject to the nearest strong

artistic tradition:

- a neon street arrives as urban painting

- a fish market as documentary key art

- a cafe menu as a still life

- a child with a balloon as ink minimalism with a single color accent

Two poles: painterly and staged-photographic — both authored,

never snapshot.

## What you get

A wide, cleanly held range of traditions:

- Chinese ink wash (shan-shui) with seals and mist

- 19th-century academic oil

- dark fantasy oil (Brom / Gurney register)

- 90s cel anime with painted backgrounds

- cinematic stills: horror, historical key art, fashion editorial, food macro

Craft media as physical artifacts. Hands-made media (validated: tapestry,

daguerreotype) arrive as objects — frames, tarnish, weave, cracks — not as

filters.

Materiality first. Cracked shield paint, molten glass optics, weathered

hands, fur, chalk dust, wet cobblestone reflections — micro-texture is the

merge's home ground.

Authored composition & palette. Staged framing, tasteful grading, the

signature "monochrome + one accent" scheme. The model adds symbolic details

on its own (a wisp of smoke, a prop with a biography) and presents works with

genre-correct attribution: signatures on oils, seals on ink wash, mastheads

on magazines, none on photos.

Reliable close-up anatomy — hands, skin and fabric pass stress tests.

Cross-style is a feature. The medium dominates the subject: a cyberpunk

hacker is naturalized into sumi-e; a "sports car in academic oil" is

historicized into a 1900s racer. Both strategies keep the tradition coherent.

## Text discipline (validated)

Explicit, short, uppercase strings render cleanly in ANY medium:

- "VOGUE" — magazine masthead

- "OPEN" — neon

- "ОТЧЁТ" — on a monitor, Cyrillic with diacritics intact

- "БАР" — neon, Cyrillic

- "13.08.2026 14:32" — dashcam overlay

- "LAP 2/3", "SPEED 180" — pixel HUD

Rules: state the inscription explicitly in quotes; keep one hero inscription

per frame; Cyrillic in UPPERCASE. Unspecified background text always decays

to decorative pseudo-script — that's the model's native "text as gesture".

## Honest boundaries

- No snapshot mode. "Casual / smartphone photo" is absorbed into art

realism; "webcam" becomes a physical prop in an authored photo. Raw

utilitarian frames only via machine-vision markers: dashcam footage,

satellite view (add an explicit timestamp if you need the overlay).

- Technical drafting is artisanalized. A "blueprint" arrives as vintage

pen-and-ink hand drafting, not CAD.

- Crowds clone. Dozens of faces may repeat — keep the hero count low.

- Painted mode hides faces (silhouette, profile, back). For close-up

faces, use the photographic pole.

- Complex motion may produce hybrid poses (validated once, ballet).

## Marker behavior map

| Prompt marker | Behavior |

|---|---|

| plain / casual / smartphone | absorbed → default art realism |

| webcam | absorbed; device becomes a prop |

| dashcam / satellite | escape → raw machine-vision frame |

| blueprint | artisanalized → vintage hand drafting |

| craft media (tapestry, daguerreotype…) | generalized as physical artifact |

| CRT / retro game | kept as faithful digital artifact |

| subject + foreign medium | medium dominates (naturalize or historicize) |

## Prompt guide

- Plain prompt → default art realism. Add a medium word to route a tradition.

- Explicit text also steers composition (the model will choose an

over-the-shoulder view to show a screen with your word on it).

- Cross-style prompts are the fun zone — don't be afraid to clash eras.

## Best for

Covers · posters · key art · concept art · album art · editorial

illustration · book plates · pitch decks

## Try these (from the test suite)

- a cyberpunk hacker with neural implants, sumi-e ink wash painting

- a still life with a skull, pomegranates and a silver goblet, chiaroscuro

- a daguerreotype portrait of a stern woman in black

- a wet cobblestone street reflecting neon signs after rain, a neon sign

with the text "БАР" in capital letters

- an office worker at a desk in front of a monitor, the monitor shows the

word "ОТЧЁТ" in large capital letters

- a parking lot with a few cars on an overcast day, dashcam footage,

timestamp "13.08.2026 14:32" in the corner

- a retro racing game screenshot, CRT scanlines, HUD text "LAP 2/3"

and "SPEED 180"

- a rocket launch, 1990s cel anime, a gantry sign with the text "ПОЕХАЛИ"

in capital letters

## Recipe

KREA2 + 12 author LoRA. Art realism is an emergent property of the merge —

the shared component of twelve crafted corpora became the model's new

neutral.
