Prompt
A minimalist, high-contrast studio portrait captures an orange tabby cat wearing a perfectly styled blonde wig with straight bangs, looking off-camera with a grumpy expression and wearing bright red lipstick, featuring rich composition grading and insane sharpness. The cat's smooth, light brown and white fur stands out sharply against a flat, deep dark blue background that serves as a vast expanse of clean negative space. The tight, centered flash composition highlights the realistic texture of the shiny blonde synthetic hair, the cat's long white whiskers, and the glossy red pout, creating a bizarre, authentic, and starkly humorous artistic study.

Prompt
A moody, cyber-noir anime art illustration featuring a mysterious young woman with a sleek black bob haircut and straight bangs, sitting cross-legged against a smooth teal-to-grey gradient background dotted with faint stars. Her skin is a striking pale blue hue, contrasted by intense, glowing amber-orange eyes and dark black lipstick, while her arms display intricate purple and blue tattoos with subtle pixelated digital glitch textures. She wears a black ribbed tank top, and nestled comfortably in her lap is a bright orange tabby cat with glowing yellow eyes, creating a highly detailed, futuristic sci-fi aesthetic with sharp outlines and clean digital rendering.

Prompt
Hyper-photorealistic 35mm film photograph of a raw, surreal anatomical scene captured in close-up macro composition. A muscular, pale human torso is shown from the chest to the shoulder, with a powerful, strained hand forcefully gripping and ripping open the flesh over the chest. The wound exposes cracked, stone-like decaying skin and deep, hollow textures beneath. Every vein on the hand and forearm bulges with intense physical tension, highlighted by sharp, dramatic bone-edge rim lighting that cuts through the surrounding darkness. The shot features a faded dark contrast with desaturated, monochrome charcoal and obsidian tones, fading into a pure pitch-black background. The mood is agonizing, visceral, and darkly poetic, showing ultra-sharp skin textures, subtle vertical canvas-like grain, and a stark chiaroscuro lighting scheme.
HearmemanAI's Realism Enhancer LoRA pushes Krea 2 toward photographic realism. Learn the weight, the prompts that pair with it and creative ideas for product, portrait and documentary shots.

Krea 2 is already a strong SFW generalist; this LoRA is for when you want its output to pass as a photograph.

Creative idea: product in context

Realism Enhancer 1.0
Tips
- It works on non-human subjects too: products, food, interiors.
- Say the lens and the light; the LoRA renders realistic falloff and bokeh.
- For an amateur look, pair with the Aesthetic Amateur Photo LoRA at 0.6.
- Lower to 0.6 when using a strong style LoRA.
Troubleshooting
Over-sharp, crunchy textures
Why it happens
Weight 1.0 with a detail slider also high.
How to fix it
Drop one of them; 0.8 and +0.5 is a good pair.
Illustration prompts become photos
Why it happens
The LoRA pulls toward realism.
How to fix it
Remove it for illustrations or use 0.3.
