FLUX.2 art styles, compared on the same scenes

Model: FLUX.2 [klein] 4B, the distilled open-weights model by Black Forest Labs (Apache 2.0), 4 steps, guidance 1, 1024×1024, seed 93250169. Each prompt is the style sentence, then the scene description, then a short reminder of the style. Styles that the model ignores on most scenes are still shown: the comparison is the point.

Fox

A red fox sits upright in a wide forest clearing in autumn, facing the camera, calm and attentive. Medium shot: the fox fills about a third of the frame, with the clearing visible around it; fallen leaves in orange, red and gold on the ground, tall grass turning yellow, the surrounding trees blazing in autumn colours. Soft warm afternoon light, a light mist between the trees.

Galaxy bottle

A medieval alchemist's laboratory lit by candles. On a heavy carved oak table stands a large round glass flask with a cork; inside it swirls a galaxy of deep blue, violet and soft pink with bright white stars that light the tabletop. Behind, a rough grey stone wall and a wooden shelf of glass jars, scrolls and copper stills.

Lighthouse

Bright sunny afternoon on the coast, blue sky with a few small clouds. A tall whitewashed stone lighthouse with a red lantern room stands alone on a small rocky islet just off the shore. In the foreground, a wide beach of pale sand and low dunes covered with grass and wildflowers.

City square

Late afternoon on a large open city square seen from a cafe terrace. The square is paved with polished pale marble and cream limestone, bright and elegant. A tall white marble fountain in the centre; around the square, buildings of different eras side by side: a gothic church with a pointed spire, ochre and pink townhouses with shutters, a glass office block, and smart shopfronts with striped awnings. A few people strolling, warm golden light.

Clipper ship

Night at sea under a full moon and the Milky Way. A three-masted clipper ship with a long narrow black hull and a gold stripe, square sails stacked in four tiers, taut rigging, drifts on a perfectly flat, mirror-still sea without a single wave. The moon is the only light: silver edges on the sails, dark hull, and a long unbroken reflection of the ship and the moon on the glassy water.

Surfing marmot

A tailless alpine marmot surfing, riding diagonally down the wall of the wave: it stands on a surfboard, feet wide apart, one hind foot on the tail and the other in the middle, knees bent, the board tilted along the slope of the wave and sliding down it, a wake behind. Its body faces the wall of water on its right while its head turns toward the camera with a smile. Only one paw is raised, making a V-for-victory sign with two fingers; the other paw is stretched out low to the side for balance. It rides a huge turquoise wave at a tropical reef break; the wave breaks from right to left, the thick lip pitches over above the marmot from the right, the open face of the wave runs off to the left, spray flying, steep green volcanic mountains behind under a bright tropical sky.
