How to get the most out of the official SDXL 1.0 base model: native resolutions, CFG and sampler settings, the refiner, negative prompts and ideas for styles where SDXL still shines.

Overzicht

Stable Diffusion XL
1.0 is Stability AI's 2023 flagship latent diffusion model. It uses two text encoders (OpenCLIP ViT-G and CLIP ViT-L), generates natively at 1024x1024 and ships with an optional refiner that polishes the final denoising steps. It remains the parent of the largest fine-tune ecosystem in the catalog:
Pony
, Illustrious, NoobAI and thousands of realistic checkpoints all descend from it.
The base model itself has a soft, painterly tendency and a broad knowledge of art styles. It is less literal than
Flux
, which makes it good at loose, atmospheric images and quick style exploration.

Naslag

Naam
Type
Wat het is
Prompt
text
Comma-separated phrases or short sentences. Quality words (highly detailed, sharp focus) still help on the base model.
Negative prompt
text
blurry, lowres, watermark, text, deformed hands. Keep it short.
CFG
5-8
7 is the classic value. Lower for painterly looks, higher for literal prompts.
Steps
25-40
30 with DPM++ 2M Karras is a reliable default.
Resolution
1 MP
1024x1024, 1152x896, 896x1152, 1216x832, 832x1216, 1344x768, 768x1344.

Stap voor stap

  1. Start at 1024x1024,
    CFG
    7, 30 steps, DPM++ 2M Karras.
  2. Put the subject first, then style, then lighting and composition words.
  3. Add a short
    negative prompt
    and keep it stable while you iterate on the positive.
  4. If a face or hands look off, run a second
    img2img
    pass at 0.3-0.4 denoise or use the refiner for the last 20 percent of steps.
  5. Switch to a non-square bucket (1216x832 for landscapes) once the subject is right.

Voorbeelden

Painterly landscape

a vast misty fjord at dawn, tiny red fishing boat, oil painting, impasto brushwork, soft pink and slate palette, wide composition
Negative: blurry, lowres, watermark, text

Concept art

concept art of a nomad caravan crossing a salt flat, giant tortoise carrying a wooden house, dramatic clouds, matte painting style, cinematic lighting, highly detailed

Creative idea: paper diorama

a layered paper-cut diorama of a night market, warm lanterns made of tissue paper, miniature paper people, macro photography, shallow depth of field

Tips

  • SDXL responds strongly to artist and medium names. Two or three style words do more than ten adjectives.
  • Do not generate below 1024 on the long edge; the base model falls apart under 768.
  • Prompt weights like (word:1.2) work here, unlike on Flux.
  • If you want realism, a dedicated realistic SDXL
    checkpoint
    from this catalog will beat the base model; use the base for painterly and conceptual work.

Probleemoplossing

Faces are mushy at 1024

Waarom het gebeurt
The base model has limited face detail compared with fine-tunes.

Zo los je het op
Use the refiner or an img2img pass at 0.35 denoise, or inpaint the face at a higher effective resolution.

Prompt is ignored in favor of a generic style

Waarom het gebeurt
CFG too low or too many competing style words.

Zo los je het op
Raise CFG to 8 and cut the style list to two or three terms.

Vragen

Do I need the refiner?

No. The base model works alone. The refiner adds micro detail on the last steps and is most useful for photographic prompts.

Can I use SD 1.5 LoRAs and embeddings?

No. SDXL has a different architecture; use
LoRAs
and embeddings trained for SDXL.
