| > Juggernaut Z is a fine-tune of **Z-Image Base** by **Team Juggernaut**, trained by **KandooAI**, and released through **RunDiffusion**. It is tuned for stronger lighting, sharper focus, more refined skin texture, and more cinematic atmosphere — out of the box. |
|
|
| This repository hosts the official RunDiffusion release artifacts: full-precision weights, FP16 and FP8 variants, and a full set of GGUF quantizations. |

|
| ## Highlights |
|
|
| - More dramatic, cinematic **lighting** out of the box |
| - Sharper **focus** and a more deliberate camera feel |
| - Cleaner **portraits** with more natural skin texture |
| - Improved **anatomy** and structural integrity |
| - Better representation across **ethnicities** by default |
| - Tuned for editorial, concept, and cinematic work |
