Selfora — realistic amateur checkpoint (Krea 2 Turbo, uncensored)

Selfora is a realism-first merge on Krea 2 Turbo built for one thing: believable amateur, shot-on-a-phone photos. Real skin with pores and texture, candid lighting, natural bodies — the kind of frame that looks like a selfie off someone's camera roll, not a glossy studio render. Ideal for AI-influencer / Instagram-style model content. Every style LoRA is baked straight into the checkpoint — always on, nothing to stack or juggle. Fully uncensored, and just as strong on clean SFW. And it's Turbo, so you get there in a handful of steps.

Selfora started as a personal project — built for my own use and convenience, to get this exact look without stacking LoRAs every time. It came out well enough that I'm sharing it. Huge thanks to catlover1937 and to the author of the base model this checkpoint is built on, for kindly giving me permission to publish it.

Look & feel

• Amateur / smartphone photoreal — real skin, real light, no plastic

• Candid "phone camera" energy, not editorial studio gloss

• Made for AI Instagram models & virtual influencers

• Dialed-in out of the box — consistent without touching a single LoRA

Recommended settings (Krea 2 Turbo) — 2-pass is best

Two passes give the cleanest result: a base pass builds the image, a second partial-denoise pass refines skin and detail. Two variants — pick by whether you run RES4LYF. Both at CFG 1, 832×1216 (portrait) or 1024×1024.

⭐ Variant 1 — my setup (RES4LYF / ClownsharKSampler)

• Pass 1 — base (ClownsharKSampler): sampler res_2s (exponential) · scheduler bong_tangent · 7 steps · eta 0.50 · bongmath on · denoise 1.0

  • optional extras: ClownOptions Detail Boost (weight 1.10 · model · soft · eta 0.45 · start_step 2), Sigmas Rescale (start 1.0 → end 0.0)

• Pass 2 — refine (KSampler Advanced): euler · simple · 9 steps · start_at_step 4 → end 999 · add_noise on · return_with_leftover_noise off

Variant 2 — portable 2-pass (plain KSampler Advanced, no extra nodes)

• Pass 1 — base: er_sde · simple · 8 steps · start 0 → end 8 · add_noise on · return_with_leftover_noise on

• Pass 2 — refine: dpmpp_2m_sde · sgm_uniform · 9 steps · start_at_step 4 → end 999 · add_noise on · return_with_leftover_noise off

Quick single-pass: er_sde · simple · 8 steps · CFG 1 (fast, still good).

At CFG 1 the negative prompt does nothing — say what you do want, positively.

Prompting

No trigger words — the style lives in the weights. Just describe the scene.

Keywords for the best results with Selfora

The amateur / phone look is already baked in — you don't need any of these to get it. They just help you dial in a specific vibe (lighting, night, candid, camera) and get the most out of the model. Mix a couple from each group — you don't need all of them:

• Amateur / candid base: amateur iphone selfie, candid facial expression, casual everyday appearance, unposed, friend-circle snapshot quality, instagram story upload quality

• iPhone / camera look: shot on iPhone, iPhone 15 Pro photo, warm iphone color science, soft computational HDR, soft phone bokeh, slight sensor grain, front-camera selfie → wide-angle front-camera distortion

• Real skin (the realism boost): natural unretouched skin texture, visible pores and freckles, minor blemishes, slight oily T-zone, natural makeup or bare face, realistic catchlights in eyes

• Grittier / night (optional): low light phone photo, ISO 6400 sensor noise, slight motion blur, handheld, warm tungsten light, night mode processing

• Candid energy: mid-laugh, genuine unposed expression, slightly tired eyes, casual

Avoid (these push it toward studio/AI-gloss): professional photography, studio lighting, DSLR, cinematic, retouched / airbrushed, 8k. At CFG 1 the negative prompt is ignored, so simply don't put these in the positive if you want the amateur look.

💡 Don't want to type any of this? Use the Selfism_Krea2_optimal_v1 workflow. All of the above — the exact amateur styling, lighting, camera looks and candid vibes — is already dialed in as ready one-click presets. It's tuned specifically for Selfora, so for this exact look with zero prompt fiddling, running Selfora inside Selfism is the easiest, most reliable way.

Content

Uncensored, NSFW and SFW both. It favors realistic amateur NSFW, but clean portraits and everyday shots come out just as well.

Best with my Selfism_Krea2_optimal_v1 workflow

Selfora runs best in my Selfism_Krea2_optimal_v1 workflow — it ships with lots of ready-made presets tuned for the selfie / amateur look and a full set of face-detailer presets, and the two sets are built to complement each other: the scene/selfie preset sets the shot, the face preset finishes the skin and detail — together they give a cohesive, consistent result. Powered by two custom nodes — Artfat LLM Prompter (image/text → prompt, on-device) and Artfat Face Preset (one-click phone-camera face presets). Load Selfora, pick your presets, shoot.

Notes

fp8, self-contained one-file checkpoint — just load and go.

Planned for v2 (coming soon): an fp8_scaled build (quantized from the bf16 base for better quality) plus a full GGUF ladder for lower-VRAM setups. This v1 is the plain fp8 release.
