∞ 218 SDXL aka 'counterproductive illustration' omE
I only recently started dabbling in SDXL models, but I already put a lot of testing into it. Mostly comparisons, testing loras, trying to fix some shortcomings in models I liked.
I decided on a model called ReproductionXL because it looked the most similar to what I was used to, but better. After that I merged CounterfeitXL because Counterfeit aesthetics are still one of if not the best. Then I merged that result with Anime Illust Diffusion XL as I found the idea of being able to use different artstyles with tags fun -- and it is a lot of fun.
This took around 2 days of manual scoring and guidance through a Bayesian process, usually 500 samples per merge, which I did about 7 times total to arrive here. Also merged a LoRA trained on 18000 images at .4 weight into the final result, aimed at fixing sdxl models' lack of knowledge about the 4 letter word.
And so there you have it, that's the current point in time.
Onwards I'm looking to see how I can use Lynn's Animagine XL 2 and upgrade the main ingredients with their latest updates. I'm looking to add multiple characters (animagine should help with that) and more styles that aren't currently present within the model.
∞ Usage
So this is a bit different compared to usual models. You can still prompt as normal, but there is a fun quirk thanks to Anime Illust Diffusion.
There is a wildcard text file in the repo that contains all the tags that call for their respective artstyles, try and play around with that.
You can call it with __artistsAI__
There is also a wildcard with artists that I personally liked in this model, __artists218__, but this is a work in progress.
