I'm using A1111 with a merged SDXL model. It's far from dead. They just don't need to update it that often because of extensions.

Nice Prompt!

It's a custom merge, but you can probably get something similar with SDXXXL. https://civitai.com/models/167764/sdxxxl?modelVersionId=253250

Nice prompt

I use a Ryzen 9 and Nvidia 4060 TI 16gb. Since I like to merge models I invested heavy in CPU/RAM/M.2 SSD with an "okay" GPU.

If you are just going to download SDXL models and generate images. Then focus on GPU VRAM 8gigs+ more the better and make sure you have decent hard drive space. Each SDXL model is 6.7-13.5gigs in size.

One other thing. Nvidia has the best graphics card support in the StableDiffusion space. AMD Radeon or Intel Arc will work but you might run into some headaches.

I made an adjustment with my merge, it's a little bit closer. If anyone wants to throw me a prompt and I'll try it out.

Mine is a custom merge, but you can get a similar result using SDXXXL(probably even better than mine); I just like to merge models. https://civitai.com/models/167764/sdxxxl?modelVersionId=253250

Here are the other settings I used: Steps: 30, Sampler: DPM++ 2M SDE Heun Karras, CFG scale: 4.5, Seed: 2711655974, Face restoration: CodeFormer, Size: 1024x1280, Model hash: b190397c8a, VAE hash: 235745af8d, Version: v1.6.0-2-g4afaaf8a

SDXXXL generates the following image.

Bonus image.

Yup, hands are still hit or miss. Here is the same image without the "ugly hands" in the negative prompt. Closer but strange finger nails under her hands.

A few more.

Strange my model thought they had a bra on. I added bra to the negative and got the following.
