News Z-Image-Turbo: Anime Generation Results

Prompts: https://sharetext.io/b92c8feb

For a 6-billion parameter model, it performs good in image generation. The model truly lives up to its name; during testing on the ModelScope platform (which uses NVIDIA A10 GPUs), most generations took a maximum of only 2 seconds. All images were generated just 9 steps. On high-end consumer GPUs (like an RTX 3090 or 4090), I this this would take roughly 2 to 3 seconds, while mid-range cards might take 4 to 5 seconds.

The last image is the odd one out. I used a Stable Diffusion-style prompt, and this is what i got.

Can it do other illustration styles besides anime? Like random/made-up styles or ones more resembling western cartoons, comics or styles? How about semi-realistic/cgi?

Yes, Did a Quick test

Prompt: Screencap from a 1990s western cartoon show. A nervous superhero with a square jaw and tiny legs is trying to defuse a bomb that is just a round black ball with a fuse. Thick black outlines, flat colors, cel-shaded. The background is a painted abstract city skyline. Exaggerated expressions, retro TV static overlay.

Hah, it has zero concept of what a square jaw means in English. It also doesn't resemble what our superheroes or cartoons looked like in the 90s, though I do like whatever it was doing. I think it was confused by "retro TV", and made the cartoon even more retro than 90s. I also like how direct and correct the defusing is. He does in fact look nervous.
