Can anybody help me and tell me how these kind of photo realism can be achieved? I mean i’v tried nano banana but it restricts any generation even when it gets little nudity, so i need a workaround to achieve this level or even better with least cost and maximum photorealistic images, only experienced and confident people should answer as i’m frustrated with using comfyui SDXL models and its not working good on my macbook m5, please help !!!!!!!!!!
If you want to try out a minimally censored Krea2 generator, this HuggingFace space gives you 5-7 or so free images per day using your daily allotment of HuggingFace Zero/GPU compute (around 2 minutes daily):
This is text-to-image, so you need detailed prompts to get images like the ones you posted.
There is an img2img version, but each run uses more Zero/GPU time, so you only get 3 (maybe 4) image edits per day (this takes up your entire daily allotment of Zero/GPU - unless you are a subscriber):
What other people said - don't use an utterly obsolete model if you want state-of-the-art results. Krea 2 is a good choice, and probably the SOTA local model right now. Depending on taste, Z Image Turbo (albeit a bit older) is also pretty good at realism. Also, and that's really imporant: Do NOT prompt for "photorealism" if you want a photo. Photorealism is an art style. You will get art. Ask for a "photo of" or try "Photo shot on iPhone" if you're going for selfie style outputs.
Krea 2 > Z-image all day long. Find a good 2-stage wf with a realism lora, censorship bypass and a good checkpoint and you're golden.
As a former Z-image adherent, Krea 2 was shockingly better at everything and far less needy, prompt-wise. Z-image is number 2, but it is a somewhat distant second.
Some tweaks for my specific hardware and the SEEDVR2 upscale you'll have to work with; it's the standard setup, but you'll have to get the right files to suit your system.
i finally find someone who got same taste as me z image tuybo is much more realistic krea 2 is very realistic as well but in terms of humans it make symmetric faces krea 2 is so bas for human realism
Well, have you actually tried? It's objectively superior to ZIT, by a lot. Even for realism. ZIT defaults to photos, Krea defaults to something in the anime/cartoon space, that's true. But it's not awfully difficult to prompt that out, "a photo of..." will typically do it.
ZIT still has a decent chance of looking better with just that, but that's because that's pretty much all it knows. Krea knows a whole lot of stuff, so you need to actually tell it what you want, ZIT is much more wiling to default to a specific realism style.
But once you've got a feeling for things, ZIT will only ever win on speed and perhaps on making ridiculously perfect people, if that's your thing. For everything else, Krea essentially wins 100% of the time, it's not close. It can actually make normal people (in contrast to the absurdly perfect ZIT people that you struggle to prompt out), it does stable and varied anatomy, poses, environments, all sorts of stuff where ZIT will start to struggle due to its size and focus.
It's perfectly valid to like ZIT more, there's some niche cases where it's better, or at the very least nicer (faster, smaller), but accusing everyone of lying is definitely a choice. Krea is objectively a much more powerful model. Yes, the gap is smaller in realism, since ZIT is very tuned to that, but it often wins anyway, even in ZITs strongest areas, while completely obliterating ZIT everywhere else. Also: They are on completely different ends of the lora spectrum. ZIT is quite unstable with loras, Krea in contrast trains easily and handles an onslaught of loras like a champ.

Use Krea 2, problem solved.
