The Following models, have been seen to produce this type of faded look error.

• snapdd00_v1

This is a VAE problem.

SOLUTION:

Download this file : vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.ckpt 

Link : https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/sd-vae-ft-mse-original/blob/main/vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.ckpt

Steps for A1111

• Place the file in stable-diffusion-webui\models\VAE folder.
• Go to settings > User Interface and scroll down to "Quicksettings list" 
• Add sd_vae in the list, apply and restart ui.
• A new drop down menu should appear in the Txt2Img and Img2Img tab
• Select vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.ckpt  

Steps for ComfyUI 

• Place the file in ComfyUI\models\vae folder. 
• Instead of using the Model's vae, create a "Load VAE" node and use this vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.ckpt

Use this VAE when you come across faded image error or use this vae as default.
