        Really struggling with getting anything realistic out of Flux.  Skin just looks like its solid plastic.  I have tried lowering the Distilled CFG Scale but still, nothing looks realistic, better maybe, but still looks like a hot steaming pile of plastic.  Also, I have tried a few LoRa’s without much success.  I have tried so many variations of prompts and nothing changes the image as far as I can tell, just produces plastic after plastic after plastic skin generations.  Also, the background blur, what can stop this?  Prompting the background to be in focus does nothing.  Its like every photo is shot on F1.2 and looks like crap tbh.  Is there anything that can make flux look even remotely as realistic as juggernaut?

          Hi, can you post a Flux image that looks plastic and one from Juggernaut that you think is good?

          I need to see what you are looking for before giving advice.

            I ended up giving up on flux, by the time I got it to look realistic all the weird issues with sdxl are present (extra limbs etc.) and without negative prompts I was getting maybe 10% useable images.  And still it wasn’t any better than sdxl with a bit of post touch up in my opinion.  Basically the benefits just don’t out weigh the negatives for me personally.

              Interesting. An option is to combine them – use flux to generate the initial image followed by SDXL with img2img at a low denoising strength.
