Flux3 Image Klein Distilled hands-on: 5.6B open model with 10-reference editing runs on 16GB

A hands-on with Flux3 Image Klein Distilled, Black Forest Labs' new 5.6B open-weights image model (text-to-image, editing with up to 10 reference images, bounding-box layout control; distilled runs 16 steps guidance-free, Base 50 steps with CFG). The author runs the lightest variant on an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB — slower than Klein 4b distilled but tolerable — and shares a complex multi-reference prompt test: character identity drifted slightly, but control was strong overall.
