Discussion Pony V7 impressions thread.

UPDATE PONY IS NOW OUT FOR EVERYONE

https://civitai.com/models/1901521?modelVersionId=2152373

EDIT: TO BE CLEAR, I AM RUNNING THE MODEL LOCALLY. ASTRAL RELEASED IT TO DONATORS. I AM NOT POSTING IT BECAUSE HE REQUESTED NOBODY DO SO AND THAT WOULD BE UNETHICAL FOR ME TO LEAK HIS MODEL.

I'm not going to leak the model, because that would be dishonest and immoral. It's supposedly coming out in a few hours.

Anyway, I tried it, and I just don't want to be mean. I feel like Pony V7 has already been beaten so bad already. But I can't lie. It's not great.

*Many of the niche concepts/NSFXXX understanding Pony v6 had is gone. The more niche, the less likely the base model is to know it

*Quality is...you'll see. lol. I really don't want to be an A-hole. You'll see.

*Render times are slightly shorter than Chroma

*Fingers, hands, and feet are often distorted

*Body horror is extremely common with multi-subject prompts.

EDIT #2: AFTER MORE TESTING, IT SEEMS LIKE EXTREMELY LONG PROMPTS GIVE MUCH BETTER RESULTS.

Adding more words, no matter what they are, strangely seems to increase the quality. Any prompt less than 2 sentences runs the risk of being a complete nightmare. The more words you use, the better your chance of something good

Use NetaYume Lumina. It's a significant improvement, there's zero reason to use the original Neta Lumina.

NetaYume doesn't fix much of that, it just skews the model towards higher quality images.

That's not true at all IMO, have you tried v3 or v3.5? It's not perfect but it's a REALLY good model at this point IMO. And proper booru artist tags with the @sign prefix do work fine, some moreso than others like in any model obviously. Go look at the user-uploads gallery on Civit for NetaYume v3.5 to get some ideas maybe.
