Source description
unKrealism is a custom checkpoint merge built on top of Krea2, designed to deliver extreme realism with exceptionally fast generation times. The model has been engineered to work at 8 steps with CFG 1 , producing clean, natural, and highly detailed images across a wide range of subjects — portraits, fashion, nature, macro, food photography, product shots, and ambient scenes.
unKrealism maintains the aesthetic flexibility of Krea2 while introducing a stronger photographic identity: natural skin texture, accurate lighting, realistic materials, and stable composition even in complex environments.
Key Features
Extreme realism with minimal steps
Stable diffusion behavior across all subjects
Natural skin tones and micro‐texture

Accurate lighting and reflections
High fidelity materials (gold, water, fabrics, glass, food)
Strong depth and separation between subject and background
Wide stylistic range without collapsing into a single aesthetic
Fast generation optimized for low‐step workflows
Recommended Settings
Steps
8 steps (optimal) The model is calibrated for rapid diffusion. Higher step counts do not improve quality.
CFG
CFG 1 Higher values introduce rigidity and artifacts. The model performs best with minimal guidance.
Sampler Recommendations
unKrealism is optimized for two specific samplers, both using Simple as scheduler:
Best for:
portraits
fashion & beauty
ambient scenes
macro botanicals
still life
food photography
Produces:
soft, natural lighting
smooth transitions
clean skin texture
cinematic atmosphere
Best for:
jewelry
product photography
complex hairstyles
detailed textures
Produces:
sharper micro‐details
stronger subject/background separation
crisp materials and surfaces
Prompting Guidelines
Keep prompts simple and direct
Avoid long descriptive chains
Avoid “hyper realistic”, “ultra detailed”, etc. — the model already does it
Negative prompts should be minimal (e.g., “bad quality”)
Let the model’s realism emerge naturally
VAE
Uses the default Krea2 VAE The merge is calibrated around it.
What unKrealism Excels At
Based on real outputs:
Photorealistic portraits (male & female)
Fashion and beauty photography
Water, foliage, and natural environments
Macro flowers and insects
Food photography with realistic textures
Product shots with accurate materials
Cultural and street scenes with rich detail
Romantic and cinematic lighting scenarios
Model Philosophy
unKrealism aims to break the boundary between stylized diffusion and photographic realism. It preserves the creative flexibility of Krea2 while pushing the output toward a more natural, tactile, and believable visual world — all within an ultra‐fast 8‐step pipeline.
