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.
