Works very well with Loras - both as a base to train on and for rendering
Excels at both types of CLIP prompting. Be it maximalist OpenAI style prompts or minimalist story driven LAION prompts (written in a more natural language without constant commas).
Great lighting and shines with easy short prompts and aggressive (but short) negative prompts.
Very low risk of burned generations even on higher CFG - recommend 5.5-15
Responds amazingly to hires.fix with just a scaling of 1.0-1.5 and beyond. I like doing it with no scaling at all, but just letting it run through with a sharp upscaler and less steps. If you have the VRAM for it, push the scaling higher, go nuts!
Favorite resolution ranges are 768x1344 and 1024x1296. Works good for landscapes on even bigger resolutions. Also works with anamorphic lenses in resolutions of 1920x816 or the likes. Test what works best for you.
DPM+ 3M SDE Karras recommended but always test your favorite!
All the img2img modes work really well and balancing a low CFG with a higher-than-average Denoising Strength will produce a sharp and clear upscale full of interesting details, using regular SD upscale. I wonder what you can do with Ultimate SD upscale?
Likes Clip Skip 1-4. I frequently use 2.
Knows about some celebrities - good LoRA base!
Use with ToMe (token merging) in A1111 (I'm sure it's implemented in Comfy as well) for a much faster SDXL generation time - changes seeds though!
