Pixeljourney XL Model: Pixeljourney, isn't an all-encompassing model that excels at everything. It struggles somewhat with accurately following prompts and tends to be somewhat inflexible. However, it uniquely directs outputs into a stylistic direction inspired by various AI artists and the Midjourney style. Capabilities of Pixeljourney: Excels at: Semi-realistic motifs, portraits, aliens, creatures, cyborgs, artistic themes, weird fashion, fusions between humans & different creatures, creative motifs. Adequate at: Photorealism. Struggles with: Anime, low-resolution monochrome sketches. Technical Aspects: Sampler for Examples: I used dpmpp_3m_sde/karras and a (cfg) range of 5-7. How to Use Pixeljourney: Start with SDXL resolution Sampler at 30+ steps. Apply HiRes-Fix or NNLatentUpscale. Proceed with UpscaleSampler for 20 steps and Denoise around 0.04. Optionally, use SDXL Refiner for around 8 steps with Denoise at 0.2. Optionally, apply a Face Detailer for enhanced facial details (not needed for Portrait shots). Dataset Composition: The dataset includes 1500 images from the LinkedIn AI/CC Community, mainly created using Midjourney. Additionally, 500 high-resolution photos were added to enhance details like eyes and skin. Training Details: The model was trained with 38,000 steps and a batch size of 4 using a 48GB RTX 6000 Ada for approximately 25 hours. NSFW: Pixeljourney is an uncensored model, capable of creating NSFW content. However, it has not been specifically trained for such content and don't preform verry well at it.
