Shifting from pony?

It seems that there has been a new model type called "Illustrious" which seems to be better than pony?

I have a couple of options here

Use one of the new Illustrious models and shift my work from Pony -> Illustrious

Train an "Illustrious" base model and use that to train loras

or something else, I'll try to play around things in my free time and when I come to a conclusion I'll just start, more than likely I'll shift to Illustrious
