Have you ever wondered why your attempts at creating hyper-realistic faces using AI image generation end up looking glitchy and obviously fake, while others’ creations look incredibly lifelike? Even after adjusting settings and prompts, achieving that same level of quality seems elusive. What could be the issue? Lets see how to solve this issue.
Join us on a captivating journey through the fusion of innovation and artistry, uncovering the intricacies behind Stable Diffusion’s prowess in crafting hyper-realistic faces. In this post, we will show you how Stable Diffusion works and how you can use it to create amazing images. Let’s get started!
What is Stable Diffusion?
Stable Diffusion is a powerful, open-source text-to-image generation model that can create realistic and high-quality images from simple text descriptions. It can also create images based on other images, such as sketches or photos, by using a technique called reverse diffusion.
It uses a technique called diffusion processes, which gradually add noise to an image until it becomes completely random, and then reverse the process to generate a realistic image from a text. Stable Diffusion is open source and can run on most consumer hardware equipped with a modest GPU.
Hyper-Realistic Faces Using Stable Diffusion
We’ll teach you 3 important ways to make better pictures with Stable Diffusion. First, We’ll start with the basics of shaping prompts to create better images. Then, We’ll tell you how to use a more advanced version of the program that can make high quality images. Lastly, We’ll introduce a model specifically fine-tuned for making good portraits.
1. Prompt optimization
Let’s learn how to write good instructions for the computer program to make Hyper-Realistic faces. We will be using the Stable Diffusion version 2.1 demo available on Hugging Face Spaces. It is free, and you can start without setting up anything.
When you write the instructions, make sure you include all the important details and style of the picture you want. For example, we want a picture of a young man jogging on the street. We will also write some words that we don’t want in the picture, to avoid any mistakes or bad quality.
Postive Prompt: “A Old Woman in her mid-60s, walking on the streets, looking directly at the camera, Confident and friendly expression, casually dressed, Urban Street scene background, Bright, sunny day lighting, Vibrant colors”. Negative Prompt: “disfigured, ugly, bad, anime, 3d, painting, b&w, cartoon, worst quality, low quality”.
2. Stable Diffusion XL
The process involves leveraging the Power of Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL) model to produce Hyper-Realistic faces. Initially, it generates a latent representation using the base mode, then refines this representation to create intricate and precise images.
We go to the link and click on “Advanced options”. We will add a negative prompt, set seed, and apply refiner for the best image quality. We will use the same prompt as before, but we will change one thing. Instead of a generic old woman, we will add a old woman from India in prompt.
3. CivitAI: RealVisXL V2.0
We want to make pictures of faces that look real and have marks and skin details. We use a special tool from CivitAI (RealVisXL V2.0) that can do this. You can use the tool online by clicking on the “Create” button or download to use locally. First, download the tool and put it in this folder: C:\WebUI\webui\models\Stable-diffusion.
To see the tool on the WebUI, you have to refresh and then choose the “realvisxl20…” option. We will start by adding positive and negative prompts and make a high-quality 1024X1024 picture. To use the tool better, we have to change our prompts. We can get new prompts by going down the tool page and clicking on the real picture we like.
Positive prompt: “An Indian young woman in modern outfit, focused, decisive, dynamic pose, ultra highres, sharpness texture, High detail RAW Photo, detailed face, sharp eyes, (realistic skin texture:1.2), light skin, dslr, film grain”. Negative prompt: “worst quality, low quality, 3d, 2d, painting, cartoons, sketch, open mouth”.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Stable Diffusion available online or locally?
