Finally, before 2024 version 1.4 is made.

Trained with pickapicv2 dataset with 4000 filtered dataset.

Aims to improvement the aesthetic, realistic, pupil, shadow and light, composition etc.

It is a overall improvement compared to old version.

If any want to use turbo version, I suggest use the turbo lora or lcm lora with is more efficent than I merge with the lora or model.

Appreciate comment or image post. Thank you.
