TX 400 35mm Developer for pleasing grain/ sharpness?

Hello:

I am thinking of doing an outdoor landscape/figure study series using Tri-X 400 35mm film. I want to use a developer that will maintain good sharpness /standard film speed, AND provide a "pleasing" mild grain quality that would compliment the figure images. The actual enlargements will be a bit larger that 8 X in size. Does anyone have an opinion about a particular developer(s) and dilution(s) that would give me the qualities that I seek?

Thanks!!!

Dan
