Krea 2 Large
Krea's flagship foundation image model, strongest at photorealism and rich, expressive styles. Krea 2 Large generates from text prompts with up to 10 style-reference images that transfer a look onto the output, a four-level creativity control, and eight aspect ratios up to cinematic 2.35:1.
Optional reference images (up to 10) whose style is transferred to the output. They guide the look, not the content. Adding any costs slightly more.

Good to know
Billing
Runs bill your account credits at provider cost with 0% markup. The submit response includes the credit estimate; failed generations are refunded automatically. Add ?dryRun=1 to get the estimate without running anything.
Errors
Errors are always { "error": { "code", "message" } } with stable codes: unauthorized, model_not_available, invalid_parameter, insufficient_credits, rate_limited. A failed run is not an HTTP error — poll responses report status: "FAILED" with the reason.
What makes Krea 2 Large different
Krea's flagship, built for realism
Krea 2 Large is the top of the Krea 2 line — strongest at photorealism while keeping the family's range across rich, expressive styles. It's the tier for images that need to hold up under scrutiny: skin, materials, light, and texture rendered at flagship quality, for a flat $0.06 per image billed at provider cost with 0% markup.
Style references at flagship fidelity
Attach up to 10 style-reference images and Large transfers their aesthetic onto your output while the prompt controls the content. Combined with photorealistic rendering, that means brand-consistent campaign imagery: feed it your visual identity once, then generate scene after scene in the same look. References add $0.005 per image.
The creativity dial, from raw to high
Four interpretation levels let you decide who's in charge: 'raw' renders exactly what the prompt says — valuable when a client brief is precise — while 'high' hands the model creative license for exploration. 'Low' and 'medium' sit between, balancing fidelity and flair.
Pair it with Medium on one board
A practical Scenetra pattern: explore broadly on Krea 2 Medium at $0.03 per image, then re-run the winning prompt and reference set on Large at $0.06 for the final render. Same parameters, same references, one node swap — the board keeps both results side by side for comparison.

Frequently asked questions
What is Krea 2 Large?+
Krea 2 Large is Krea's flagship foundation image model, strongest at photorealism and rich, expressive styles. It generates images from text prompts, guided optionally by up to 10 style-reference images and a four-level creativity control. On Scenetra it runs as a node in the visual workflow editor, alongside Krea 2 Medium.
How much does Krea 2 Large cost?+
$0.06 per image on Scenetra, or $0.065 when style-reference images are attached. You pay per generation from your credit balance at provider cost with 0% markup — no subscription gates the model.
Can Krea 2 Large edit images?+
No — Krea 2 Large is text-to-image only. Reference images transfer style, not content, and are never modified themselves. For editing steps, chain it with an editing model like Nano Banana 2 or Seedream 5 Pro on the same Scenetra board.
When should I pick Large over Krea 2 Medium?+
Pick Large when realism and detail carry the image — campaign finals, product scenes, cinematic frames — at $0.06 per image. Pick Medium for illustration, anime, and painterly work, or for cheap exploration at $0.03. Since both share the same parameters and reference behavior, many workflows iterate on Medium and finish on Large.
How do style references work?+
You attach up to 10 images whose look — palette, lighting character, rendering style — is transferred to the output while your prompt determines the content. It's the mechanism for keeping a whole campaign or series in one consistent visual identity. Adding references costs $0.005 extra per image.
What aspect ratios does Krea 2 Large support?+
Eight ratios: 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, cinematic 2.35:1, 4:5, 2:3, and 9:16 — covering square, landscape, widescreen, anamorphic, portrait, and vertical social formats.
