Focused on further grounding Fantasy outputs in photographic "realism". Trained on 44 film stills.

Recommended strength: 0.8-1.4

V2 expands the training dataset, focusing on further grounding outputs in photographic realism. Trained on 44 film stills alongside 6 MidjourneyV1 Z Image Turbo LoRA generations.

Standalone recommended strength: 0.55

For best results, stack with v1:

v1 @ 0.35 + v2 @ 0.45

First 2 example images generated standalone with v2

Final 5 example images generated with v1 + v2 combined

Currently curating a dedicated dataset focused on environmental detail and depth, with an emphasis on faces at a distance, one of the weaker areas in the current versions. This will be folded into the v2 dataset for v3 training.

A lightweight LoRA trained on 44 curated images generated with the MidjourneyV1 Z Image Turbo LoRA, built to refine Ideogram 4 fantasy outputs toward a more realistic aesthetic.

Ideogram 4 produces stunning fantasy art, but that's often the problem. No matter how I prompted it (photographic, photorealism, cinematic realism, etc.), fantasy subject matter almost always defaults to an illustrated or painterly art style. zjourney was built to push past that and ground those outputs in something that feels genuinely photographic.

Refines Ideogram 4 outputs with richer photorealism, improving surface texturing, cinematic lighting, environmental depth, and material detail across fantasy and action subjects. It also works well as a general realism refiner beyond pure fantasy content.

Key improvements over base Ideogram 4: More detailed and grounded environments (ruins, foliage, wet stone) Richer skin, fur, and fabric textures Stronger cinematic color grading and atmospheric depth More convincing crowd and secondary figure detail

Known limitations: Close-up shots with heavy focus on skin texture can see a slight degradation in quality, works best at mid-range and wider compositions

Usage: Recommended strength: 0.4–0.7 Sample images generated at 0.5 Works with and without trigger word, trigger word was trained in the aesthetics placement in the json prompt structure

Works best alongside detailed fantasy or action JSON prompts; can also be applied to general realism scenes

You should use zjourney to trigger the image generation.
