Update 08/18: Recent training runs on multiple trainers have not been performing as well as the older lora versions that still have the faded dot issue. They are not learning the realism aspects soon enough before disfigurement settles in. I will continue to tweak all the parameters and datasets if necessary and try to get a better version in the coming days. In the meantime I recommend trying out some of the other realism loras such as Amateur Photogrophy and 35mm Photo.
Work in Progress This is a very early experimental lora for Flux-Dev. It uses the Boring Reality image datasets to work on shifting Flux towards more realistic images.
Do not expect good image generations from them. They will be replaced by newer versions has better understanding on how to train Flux Models Emerges. The ideal workflow to use with them has not been fully understood yet either.
Additional Notes These two flux-dev loras are not expected to create very good images. Many results may be overfitted, distorted, and have this slight faded dotted look for lesser known concepts.
The 1000 step lora is more over-fitted with with distortion and lack of prompt understanding more likely to occur, but it may perform better on things like dynamic posing and skin texture.
You will want to experiment between the two loras, tweaking the lora strengths between 0.5-2.0 and guidance between 3.0-5.0 along with testing many different seeds.
As more understanding develops for Flux, better workflows for these current models will come along as well as newer Boreal-FD versions as the training improves.
