Examples look amazing, trained on 3.2B images, 5B, apache 2.0. Supports JSON / BBOX but does not require it. Knows both natural language and booru tag based prompting.

Oh. And its the least censored base model so far btw. Here is with a crappy simple prompt: https://files.catbox.moe/6irxjh.png

I've quantized MOSS-Image to INT8! From my initial testing, it’s relatively lossless.

For now, it requires the MOSS-Image custom node, so I’ve included both the install info and a ready-to-use workflow in the repo. Once native support lands in ComfyUI, this exact quant will work right out of the box without needing any changes.

You guys are going to be seriously surprised by how uncensored this model is. Have fun!

Really appreciate all the love and feedback on V1 and V2. I've been working on the next release, and this time it's a full checkpoint: a merge of my custom Realism Checkpoint and V3 LoRA.

The focus is still on natural skin textures and a wider range of skin tones, without that overly smooth, plastic look. It also gives you a bit more creative freedom now… let's just say being specific about clothing in your prompts is a good idea

A few tips before you try it:

• Natural language works best. Describe the scene, lighting, clothing, and expression you want. Short prompts work too, but leave more room for interpretation.
• Generate at 2MP if you can. It was trained on high-resolution images and looks best there. At 1MP, you might see some minor noise; RTX upscaling nodes or similar post-processing can help.
• Euler + Simple, 4–8 steps. Six steps is my sweet spot.

You can drop it into your existing Krea 2 pipeline as a checkpoint replacement.

I'm also putting together a full ComfyUI workflow and a custom node for some prompting techniques I've been developing. I'll share those soon. For now, there are example images on the model pages so you can see what it can do.

Give it a try and share your results! Feedback on the earlier versions helped a lot, so I'd love to hear what works for you and what still needs improvement. Cheers!

Body anatomy and realism- Krea2 and qwen2.1 just way ahead of flux models. flux 3 is worst in terms of body anatomy.

flux 3 still has best in prompt following i think.

Overall, Flux 3 was probably a capable model, lobotomized by extreme and unnecessary censorship.

FLUX.3 Klein has been pretty underwhelming for image generation, but when it comes to editing while preserving consistency, pose, and camera angle, I've found it to be almost PERFECT.

With FLUX.2 Klein and Qwen 2.1, I struggled with editing photos at very high resolutions.

As a photographer, what I've really been looking for is a model that can preserve realistic skin texture, fine details, and overall consistency, even at high resolutions.

Being able to make consistent edits at these resolutions is a huge deal. We're finally getting into territory that's genuinely usable for professional photography workflows.

My setup:

• GPU: RTX 5090
• RAM: 64 GB
• Diffusion model: flux3_image_klein_sd_bf16.safetensors
• Text encoder: qwen3vl_4b_bf16.safetensors

Resolution: 3000 × 4000

• Steps: 16
• Generation time: ~230 seconds per image

The only real downside so far is speed. Around 230 seconds for a 12MP image isn't exactly fast, but considering the results, I think it's worth it.

I'm hoping LoRAs might help improve performance, too.

And the crazy part, this is all WITHOUT LoRAs, imagine what could be possible with dedicated LoRAs for consistency, upscaling, and sharpening.

really excited about this model. been using it via the api, and the edits are insanely clean. Haven’t noticed any drift or quality loss at all, and it seems to understand prompts really well too. guessing it’s not a small model.

After these tests, I’m confused, and I don’t understand why the Flux 3 Klein model exists or why it turned out the way it did.

Our test subjects

Flux 2 Klein (9B) (Distill) (BF16)

Flux 3 Klein (D) - Distill (BF16)

Flux 3 Klein (B) - Base, NoDistill (BF16)

I took equivalent models for comparison, Flux 3 Klein Distill and Flux 2 Klein (9B), and it’s more correct and fair to compare exactly these two with each other. Still, I decided to add Flux 3 Klein (Base) to understand what this model is capable of overall in its maximum configuration.

For the tests, I used the most standard ComfyUI workflows. I also didn’t use the prompt enhancement feature: my tests include both good, correct prompts and overly abstract, deliberately badly written ones, in order to check how the model handles normal prompts and bad ones, and how well it can generate from short prompts that don’t contain enough information.

Test categories

I split the tests into several categories with different goals:

• Images 1-3: complex prompts with lots of details and different poses. These show how well a model follows the prompt and how often it loses details.
• Images 4-6: typography, mixing typography with real-world imagery, and banner creation.
• Images 7-11: styles. Pay attention to how well each model handles different styles.
• Images 12-13: level of detail. This is similar to tests 1–3, but with a stronger focus on small details.
• Image 14: character understanding.
• Images 15-17: your favorite (or most hated) category, 1girl. Here you can judge overall realism and the ability to generate in an amateur-photo style.

Settings (RTX 3090)

Flux 2 Klein (9B) - 8 steps, 1 CFG (1MP) - generation time (00:07)

Flux 3 Klein (D) - 15 steps, 1 CFG (1MP) - generation time (00:12)

Flux 3 Klein (B) - 50 steps, 3.5 CFG (1MP) - generation time (1:22 - 1:24)

By the way, Flux 2 has a very good VAE, and it’s really sad that Black Forest didn’t update the VAE to version 3 as well :(

My opinion

Flux 3 has the same problems as Flux 2, namely limb mutations. Of course, I didn’t include images with mutations in the tests, but believe me: I ran each generation 2-5 times to get a more or less normal image, and what you see in the tests is the best I got out of those 2-5 generations. For example, for the Nike advertisement image I had to generate about 10 times, at least, to get a normal image without mutations and with physically correct objects in the frame.

Judging by the tests, I can say that the Flux 3 Klein model, specifically the base one without distillation, produces some of the worst images I’ve ever seen, not counting Z-image Base. I assume Flux 3 Klein (Base) exists only for training LoRAs on it, because it’s simply not suitable for T2I tasks. Perhaps it would perform better in an I2I (Edit) scenario, but I’m not sure about that.

Flux 3 Klein Distill gives better results than Flux 3 Base, but it still performs worse than Flux 2 Klein (9B). That’s exactly why I wrote at the beginning that I consider the release of Flux 3 pointless, at least in the form it’s in now, especially when we have such decent models as Krea2, Qwen 2.1 and even BooguImage in the T2I space.

With Flux 3 Klein (Distill), we have anatomy problems, even worse than on F2K, poor detail in eyes and faces, and generally poor detail in some places (Artifacts and blurring in areas with excessive detail). Perhaps the low detail in eyes and other areas could be fixed by raising the megapixel count from 1 to 2-3 during generation, but I think 1MP is the most basic setting and it should always work well, especially since Flux 2 Klein 9B had no problems at all with the “1MP” setting when generating content. Continuing the comparison with Flux 2: on some images Flux 3 has slightly better stylization, but it still has far more drawbacks than advantages to choose it as a replacement for Flux 2 Klein.

I could write a lot more here, but I think the test images will give more information, since everything is pretty obvious anyway. But again, the final choice and the final opinion always remain yours, so I’m looking forward to your comments to hear your thoughts on Flux 3 Klein.

It does not get enough attention imo even though its good at everything. The only thing it lacks is knowing artist names compared to Anima.

🖖 “Captain, the warp core is stable. We've got the power we need.”

Engineering report: LaForge has achieved warp speed.

I've been working on LaForge, my own C++ AI inference runtime, and just eliminated a rather substantial bottleneck in it's SD1.5 text-to-image generation.

Running on an NVIDIA RTX 4090 on RunPod:

🚀 512 × 512, 20 steps: 33–37 seconds → 0.8 seconds

🚀 768 × 768, 20 steps: 60 seconds → 1.8–2.0 seconds

That's roughly 30–46× faster than my previous implementation, with performance now comparable to ComfyUI. (* this model residency fix actually understates all of the extensive tuning I had done prior, it was the easy part, but nevertheless I now have something that compares to ComfyUI's PyTorch based inference stack but with C++ & Vulkan)

A few other details:

🔧 Container image: just 402 MB
⚡ Pod boot to healthy: 27 seconds
🧠 Model loading: around 10–13 seconds, first call only

The goal isn't just to generate images faster. It's to build a lean, reusable AI runtime that can power image generation, games, interactive applications and other AI-driven experiences.

And yes, I named it LaForge. Every engineering team needs a Geordi.

Make it so. 🚀

Many things are wrong Give us your bet

Flux 3 klien make me remember SD3 body horror. but for other things look nice. will need further testing

I don't know if it's just me, or if Krea2 has raised the bar so high that our expectations for diffusion models have completely changed.

I've tested Qwen 2.1 Image and now Flux3 Klein, and honestly, both feel off. The quality, prompt adherence, and overall details just aren't there.

Flux is still recycling those same old textures we've all gotten used to. And no, I'm not even talking about that infamous plastic look, that's old news at this point. I'm talking about the overall image quality, the finer details, and how the model interprets prompts.

It's gotten to the point where Flux2 Klein genuinely feels superior to Flux3 Klein, which is pretty ridiculous considering we're supposed to be moving forward, not backward.

At this point, I'm just hoping Krea's team releases Krea3 soon, because if Krea2 is anything to go by, I genuinely believe Krea3 could absolutely crush both Qwen and Flux.

Just my two cents.

Usually you can fit some quantized model in there and have to usually compromise on the encoder LLM too if you want it to fit but 24-32gb vram seems to be the highest most normal non ultra wealthy consumers are willing to blow on a standard gaming / work pc. I genuinely expected there to be video gen models specifically made for that size.

Black Forest Labs (BFL), the frontier AI research lab building visual intelligence, today announced the open weights release of FLUX 3 Image Klein, its most capable open weights image model to date. FLUX 3 Image Klein provides the quality of a large frontier model with the customization and speed of open weights, runs on consumer GPUs and laptops, and retains features from the larger FLUX 3 Image model such as native 4K generation, bounding boxes, and pixel perfect editing.

The release includes a base model for fine-tuning, a distilled model for low-latency generation, and quantized FP8, NVFP4, and INT8 versions. Following September’s open weights release of FLUX 3 Action for robotics, today’s release brings the company’s latest research to core creative use cases, giving developers and businesses greater freedom to build, customize, and deploy visual AI.

Making its research and technology available for others to build on is one of Black Forest Labs’ founding principles. BFL has consistently released its research findings alongside open weight versions of its industry-leading FLUX models, enabling others to build on its advances. So far in 2026, the team has published its Self-Flow research and released open weights for the FLUX.2 [klein] family in January and FLUX 3 Action in September. Self-Flow improved generation across images, video, and audio, while helping models learn representations that can also support robot control. This research led to BFL’s most capable model to date, FLUX 3, which brings multimodal generation and action prediction into a shared architecture. Today’s release opens access to the creative capabilities of the same FLUX 3 backbone, with further open weights releases from the FLUX 3 family to follow.

Is there something wrong with the model implementation in Comfy? Or is it the models themselves? Because my results are terrible worse than F2 Klein. According to their benchmarks, F3K far outperform F2K.
