* ABOUT REALISTIC VISION

Working with Realistic Vision

Realistic Vision is the photorealism-focused fine-tune of the Stable Diffusion lineage. The base variant generates lifelike images from prompts, while Realistic Vision V3 Inpainting rewrites a masked region of an existing photo in the same realistic style.

When to choose Realistic Vision

Choose Realistic Vision when you want a proven photoreal open model with a matching inpainting variant. Flux SRPO is the newer realism-tuned option; Stable Diffusion 3.5 is the general base.

Choosing between the variants

The base model generates a photoreal image from a prompt. V3 Inpainting works on an image you supply, replacing a masked area while matching the surrounding photograph.

About Realistic Vision

What is inpainting used for here?
Replacing part of an existing photo — removing an object, changing a detail — while the untouched area stays exactly as it was.
Is Realistic Vision better than a general model for photos?
It is fine-tuned toward photorealism, so it needs less prompt effort to avoid the illustrative look a general model can drift into.
Does the inpainting variant match the source style?
Yes — it is built to blend the regenerated region into the surrounding photograph rather than producing a visibly pasted patch.
