Moss INT8 SFT is enough: a simplified workflow beats fancy settings for photorealism

The author argues Moss works great with plain SFT + INT8 — no Moss Base, BF16, or magic workflows needed. Their recipe: SAsolver + SGMuniform, 25–50 steps, CFG 3.0, skip-layer guidance on singlelayer 22 (0–0.5 or 0.25–0.75; skipping 24 gives plastic skin), ≥2MP resolution, and detailed but not purple prompts. Two workflows are shared (simple; plus one with 3 LoRA slots and optional upscale). All examples use seed 0 with no cherry-picking.

Verdict vs Krea 2: Moss wins on everyday photorealism and seed diversity by a wide margin; Krea 2 handles advanced compositions better, while Moss is more prone to odd anatomy and messy backgrounds — fix those via thorough background prompting or low-denoise inpainting with Krea 2.
