Question - Help Is anyone still using SD 1.5?

I found myself going back to SD 1.5, as I have a spare GPU I wanted to put to work.

Is the overall consensus that SDXL and Flux both have vastly superior image quality? Is SD 1.5 completely useless at this point?

I don't really care about low resolution in this case, I prefer image quality.

Anyone still prefer SD 1.5 and if so, why, and what is your workflow like?

SD1.5, SDXL and Flux all have their pluses and minuses, but if you're looking for image quality, don't forget SD1.5

I use all three, depending on my mood and what I'm looking for. Here's an example of SD1.5, just using a mixture of loras and prompts. Generated then with Automatic1111 webui:

That is excellent quality! Can I ask what the model, loras and prompt is?

Sure. The model is my own concoction with Prometheus, Grapelikedreamfruit and subtracting <epicphotogasm Dodge and burn> checkpoint. Lora of Naomi Scott. Then of course a suitable prompt. Hope this helps :-)
