Colossus Project XL (SFW&NSFW)

A Colossus arise.. again..Deep under a mountain lives a sleeping giant, capable to eighter help humanity or create destruction...This SD 1.0XL-Checkpoint is capable to produce nearly everything.. Colossus is very good creating extremly realistic pictures, anime and art.This is a merge of my best models I have created so far. Its heavily based on Hephaistos V3.31 and The Talos Project (This is a project I have created with freek22). Then I added parts of my Asmodeus 3.0 model (which isn't released yet). To improve some skin textures I added a small percentage of the Realistic Stock Photo model and Newdawn XL..Version 9.0 "HERA"This version is a long time in the making.. Its based on a own trained model called "Hera" which isn't public and mixed with parts of my existing version 6.0 and my Hephaistos Lightning model. It also got my SDXL Enhancer Lora and Freek22s Furry enhancer Lora mixed in. This also a sort of restart of this series. Its less censored than my last version.. Also it works with lower stepsThanks to freek22 for your Furry Enhancer https://civitai.com/models/310964/furry-enhancer-sdxlFeel free to give me some feedback about this version.A known bug of the model: It can't produce male organs. I know this already. Use a Lora or another model for this.Here is some technical stuff:I trained on more hand and feet images, so this should be better. Keep in mind that this is still SDXL and it got some limitations..Version 9 needs less steps to start working. I recommend to start from 4 steps.. Higher steps can and will still improve the image. In my test down below I tried a range from 3-16 steps.. and 1-7cfg. As you can see: with a higher step count you can run higher or even lower cfgs.For the working samplers go down to version 6.Version 6.0 EXPERIMENTAL 2Well.. its time for a new checkpoint. This one is a experimental one. Its highly coherent creative and precise. I trained on top of version 5.3 and merged Hephaistos NextGen 2.0 into the mix. This gives some advantages. It got a very high cfg/step range starting at 5 steps and even lower (depending on the used sampler of course. For the cfg range I have tested even 0.5 and it worked. For higher cfg values you have to use more steps.The image above was made with the DPM2 a sampler. I will post a bigger version of it in the gallery.Recommended settingsIt works very well at around 2-4 cfg. As you can see above.. the recommended step count depends on the sampler and the used cfg scale.. In my test it started to work with 5 steps. for can be benificial especially for higer cfg scales.Recommended sampler:In my tests DPM 2 a and DPM++ 2S a worked really good for fine details. You can also use the Karras versions of these samplers.Also DPM++ SDE, DPM++ SDE Karras, Euler a, Euler a Turbo, DDPM, DDPM Karras, DPM++ 2M Turbo, DPM++ 2M SDE Heun Exponential worked great in my tests.feel free to test other sampler if course..Be aware that some samplers aren't working. Don't use following samplers:DPM++ 2M Karras, DPM++ 2M,DPM++ 2M, DPM++ 2M SDE, DPM++ 2M SDE Heun, Euler, LMS, LMS Karras, Heun, 3M SDE Karras, DPM fast, DPM2 Karras, Restart, PLMS, DDIM, Uni PC, LCM, LCM KarrasVersion 5.3_TrainedThis version is another nearly fully trained model. In addition it combines parts of my Hephaistos_LCM_hybrid model https://civitai.com/models/200061/hephaistosnextgenxl-lcmbf16hybrid and Gleipnir by freek22 https://civitai.com/models/175094/gleipnirThe result is a model capable to do very low steps while giving the possibility to gain even more details on more steps. I have added a small steps/cfg scale to the showcase. It uses DPM++ SDE from a range from 5 steps to 60 steps and a cfg range from 1 to 20 cfg. It works well with A1111/Comfy/Foocus (just turn off all styles and Loras) I highly recommend to use a -2 Clip skip with this version.A first workflow for comfy can be found here: https://civitai.com/articles/3113Version 4.9b Experimental_TrainedThis a fully experimental model. I trained it over several weeks on base of the 1.6 Version of Colossus Project XL. Then I added parts of Version 4.9. Try it and leave a review if you like. Which version do you prefer?Version 4.9:This one took a long time. For this I trained even a complete new model (It will bepublic soon) I have merged in. Goal of it was to get it more stable and also added more details.This model changes a lot.Version 2.02 is still very good, so consider to download both and decide yourself which model you prefer...Might discuss this even in the comments :-)Version 2.02:I merged in more parts from the Realistic Stock Photo Model. (about 35 percent). This increased the quality of the skin textures. Version 1.6 is still extremely good so I advise to try both versions.Give me some feedback in form of a small review or just post some pictures in the gallery when you are pleased with the results. Also if you want to support me you can gift me a beer here :-)https://ko-fi.com/afroman4peaceSpecial thanks to freek22 who helped me creating this. I highly recommend his new checkpoint FenrisXL. Check out his amazing work. Also thanks PromptSharingSamaritan for letting me merge in your amazing model into Version 2.02. It really increases the skin quality a lot compared with Version 1.6.Disclaimer and warning:This checkpoint is fully uncensored. Only your imagination is the limit. Beware of this.. It's not intented to create just porn but it can be very horny. I would advice to consider this and maybe add NSFW in negative prompts... Don't use this to harm others... Please use this responsible! You are fully responsible for your actions!And most important:Don't use this to create CP! If I see such pictures here in the gallery I will flag it and you might get banned from here..Useful tricks:Don't use the refiner! It seems to causes only bad results.Don't use the DPM++ 2M Sampler; I recommend SDE samplers in general.. Tested it with DPM++ SDE Karras and it works on a wirde range.On standard this model trys to create photos. So there is no prompt needed for this but it can enhance the results. play with different cameras and settings. Also if you want to create art/anime/drawings use negative prompts like realism, photo, 3D...You (almost) don't need negative prompts. I mostly use the prompt "boring". To handle the skimpy behaviour of this model try to use words like tits, nude, NSFW in the negative. Sometimes especially for creatures like cats or mythical creatures add woman to the negative prompt.I mostly use the DPM (2M) SDE Karras for my prompts at around 10-70+ steps with a cfg from 5-10Feel free to experiment here.Colossus XL can handle resolutions up to 1200x1200 very well. You can go above but it can increase your failure rateTo upscale your results you can just use img to img. use around 0.2-0.3 denoise. (this can vary depending on the prompt) feel free to experiment with it.This is a workflow for Comfy UI https://civitai.com/articles/1978/workflow-for-xl-13-asmodeus I know its for Asmodeus but I will optimise it for Colossus soon.Have funHere is the full credit list of things I used for this model including the resources I used for my other models which are merged into Colossus XL. Thanks for all your work. Please check ou their work and give them a like/review.Furry Enhancer by freek22https://civitai.com/models/310964/furry-enhancer-sdxlGleipnir by freek22https://civitai.com/models/175094/gleipnirRealistic Stock Photo by PromptSharingSamaritanhttps://civitai.com/models/139565?modelVersionId=154593NewdawnXL by freek22https://civitai.com/models/120741?modelVersionId=163104Those resources I used to create Hephaistos, Talos and Asmodeus:FenrisXL by freek22https://civitai.com/models/122793/fenrisxlSDVN6-RealArtXL by StableDiffusionVNhttps://civitai.com/models/118114?modelVersionId=128795first_nsfw_for_sdxl_v1 by sevenof9247https://civitai.com/models/118794/firstnsfwforsdxlv1Perfect Eyes XL by Deizorhttps://civitai.com/models/118427/perfect-eyes-xlFinenude by finenudehttps://civitai.com/models/117603?modelVersionId=127928Hella Babes, a SDXL LoRA for better nudity by vfx_aihttps://civitai.com/models/127842?modelVersionId=139902Film Like XL by getjinxedhttps://civitai.com/models/130286/film-like-xl
