Now, a bit about Juggernaut **: After our prototype with X responded well to the new captions, it was clear that we wanted to re-caption the entire Juggernaut dataset (15k). We’ve done that, and it's significantly more stable than version X. I still recommend a tag/keyword prompting style, but "normal" prompts should also work well :) I also tweaked the captions a bit before training.
Other than that, Juggernaut ** is still an SDXL model. I suspect expectations have risen quite a bit after the release of Flux. SDXL still suffers from some "issues" that are hard to fix (hands, faces in full-body view, text, etc.). But rest assured, we've tested it extensively over the past few weeks and, of course, compared it with older versions (X & 9). It’s even easier to prompt than version X and now has the visual quality of version 9 again.
Since the Juggernaut dataset contains only a small amount of nudity, male genitalia are again harder to prompt. For that, I recommend using either version X, version 4, or one of the many Penis LoRAs on CivitAI.
My personal recommendation is currently a Flux>Jug ** pipeline for the best possible output :) This showcase is RAW and not cherry-picked. A classic "What you see is what you get" ;)
