Krea2-realism-V2 is finally here! Things got a little wild (in the best way possible)
Spent a lot of time on this one trying to push the realism further. Textures, lighting, and composition all got a significant upgrade, but the biggest focus was faces — the "death stare" problem from base model is mostly gone and expressions feel a lot more natural now. It also works much better alongside character LoRAs.
For prompting, it works with any style but really opens up with natural language. Try a short paragraph describing the scene rather than tag stacking — 4-5 sentences is the sweet spot. If you have something specific in mind put it in, otherwise just give it a general direction and let it do its thing. You can also grab a few of my example prompts and feed them to an LLM as reference to generate similar ones.
Comparison images are in the post — base model, V1, and V2 side by side.
Again, be nice in the comment. If you followed my previous post, you know I try to take everyone's feedback and improve as much as possible. Cheers!

Day 2 - testing Krea 2 with "Krea2-realism-V1" LoRA
Here are a few more results from my test.

One LoRA for Krea 2. SFW and Not SFW Realism.
I built a realism LoRA for Krea 2. It makes high-quality images for both SFW and Not SFW. It's good at different skin tones, body shapes, ages, and anatomy.
These samples show what this LoRA can do. You can create everyday scenes or you know what content. One model handles everything.
Can't post the other samples here, so.....

Comfy-Muse
Not sure if this is useful to anyone else, but I built a custom ComfyUI node called Muse — basically a full LLM chat panel (LM Studio/Ollama) that lives right inside ComfyUI, so I can brainstorm prompts without alt-tabbing or fighting over VRAM between apps. Multi-session chats, vision support, the works.
Made it for my own workflow but figured I'd share in case it helps anyone else. Let me know what you think, happy to hear feedback or feature requests.
