This checkpoint is a blend between brutal realism and art.
To archive this goal I have used a unpublished version of DemonCore. Its based on version 4.1 MidgardBeast got an additional training on over 2000 images... This version got also my own enhancer merged in. I may will publish this one soon.. Freek22 helped me a lot creating the newer Midgard checkpoints.
The other part of the model is Kika_real V4 https://tensor.art/models/745584530192150460 an awesome model that is a bit more art focused and also worth checking out. This model was created by speach1sdef178 and Triple_Headed_Monkey
ArtCore is intendet to create realistic images with almost HDR like colors. Its very creative for a realism checkpoint. Feel free to try different styles though. It can also produce NSFW things but this model is not intented to create porn.
Settings:
I will add a official workflow for it soon. Most of the images are created with Forge. I recommend using around 15-25 steps (tested with SDE) and around 2-6cfg. It workd below that but you will get more details using this setting.
Nearly all samplers are working with it. I don't recommend using Heun (normal), 2M SDE (normal) and 2M SDE Heun (normal).
I will include the images I created with Comfy in the training data. Here you can get some basic workflows. Just load the images into Comfy.
