By today's standards, it lacks Lora resistance and realism. It leans too realistic for a 2.5D, and the positioning is unclear. Considering it's a 2024 model, I think it's excellent.

It's not the most truly photorealistic model, but that's not a bad thing. A lot of the time when we think about what we want from a "photorealistic" model what we're actually thinking about isn't really reality. Lighting that always fits the mood, people that are never ugly in our heads with soft features and unambiguous expression, and environments and situations that don't always make physical sense if you scrutinize them but perfect accommodate the image in your mind. That's where this model really shines.

Easily the best checkpoint on the generator, and my most used by far. Consistency is king and the details and reliable results are the best I've found. Works well with lora's and simple prompts are powerful because the default textures and faces are so good. I hope it comes back to the onsite generator soon. Civit! Please give the option for more base models in the generator!

I've used this a lot and bid on the Auction the first few weeks. It's my favourite PonyXL model. DucHaiten models have always been my favourite. Even back when Mage.Space was good. Lyriel and all the various DucHaiten base models was most used. <3

... when I stumbled into the topic of Stable Diffusion this summer I read about using this checkpoint (v1) as it generates great images easily... tried it... wasn't convinced... I used various other checkpoints since... returned after having gained a modi*** of understanding of the topic (much more to learn though :P)... and returned again, and again, and again... maybe it is v2 of the checkpoint... but more likely it is just me failing to appraise the jewel for what it is haha XD ... the model in practice has been unchallenged when it comes to contrast and vibrant color and lights (my addiction lol), but holds up amazingly on just about anything I throw at it...
major kudos and many thanks :)

I'm in love with this model and I don't think I'll ever use another model again.
