Kroma v0.2 — Krea 2 fine-tune (full model)
Kroma is a fine-tune of Krea 2. As of v0.2 it is distributed as a full model checkpoint — the v0.1 LoRA-delta packaging has been retired. v0.2 is more training on top of v0.1, with no LoRA delta compression, and the Krea 2 Turbo delta merged in as a rank-512 LoRA — a single file gives you the fine-tuned quality at Turbo speed.

Upgrading from v0.1: v0.1 was a LoRA +.diffdeltas loaded on top of a Krea 2 checkpoint. v0.2 replaces that entirely — load it as a normal diffusion model and drop theLoraLoaderfrom your workflow.
Running in ComfyUI
1. Requirements
- A recent ComfyUI with native Krea 2 support (update to the latest master).
- The Krea 2 text encoder and VAE (the diffusion model is this repo — no separate base checkpoint needed).
2. Files to download
Place these in your ComfyUI folders:
3. Sampling settings
The Krea 2 Turbo delta is merged in, so sample with Turbo settings:
These are the settings the Turbo checkpoint was distilled for; keep them for best results.
4. Workflow
- Load Diffusion Model → select
kroma-v0.2-turbo.safetensors. - Load CLIP → the Krea 2 text encoder, set type to `krea2`.
- Load VAE → the Krea 2 VAE.
- KSampler → steps / CFG / shift per the table above.
- Prompt and generate.
Minimal node chain:
Load Diffusion Model (kroma-v0.2) ─► KSampler ─► VAE Decode ─► Save Image
Load CLIP (krea2) ─────────────────► (clip) ▲
Load VAE ───────────────────────────────────────┘
Empty Latent / prompt ────────────────────────────►5. Tips
- If the output looks off, confirm the text encoder is loaded with type `krea2` (Krea 2 expects a 12-layer Qwen3-VL stack) and that you're on a current ComfyUI.
Provenance
v0.2 was produced by continued full fine-tuning of the K2 (Krea 2) checkpoint behind Kroma v0.1 — without the rank-256 LoRA delta compression used for the v0.1 release — followed by merging the Krea 2 Turbo delta in as a rank-512 LoRA.
