    V1.22 update: thanks to Bokus for some of the preview images and the tests.

    Available on the following websites with GPU acceleration:

    It has been a while since I made a model. I've been making LoRA's non stop for the last month, but I felt like I needed something. A big problem with DreamShaper is that it wasn't much compatibles with the LoRA's I was making. So I wanted to create a model that was "artistic" like DreamShaper but also able to use my LoRA's and booru tags for generating images. Plus I wanted this to be able to make good anime stuff out of the box, without needing an additional LoRA.

    After a lot of tests and also fine tuning (plus LoRA merges) here is my newest model.

    It came out a bit more realistic then I wanted, but I won't complain.

    What is this model great at?

    • Generating cosplay images

    • Generating anime pictures

    • Work accurately with character LoRA

    • Generating good looking people

    • Generating realistic animals

    • Generating images using booru-like tags

    What is this model not too good at?

    • Generating pictures from complex sentences

    • Making fantasy/sci-fi paintings

    So this basically complements DreamShaper, and it also doesn't include Dreamlike in the mix.

    I hope you'll enjoy it!

    Some tips:

    • Use CLIP skip 2.

    • Select "auto" as vae if you're using the baked vae version.

    • Use highres fix or img2img to upscale the images after you get a preview. See the examples generation data for settings suggestions, I've tested various techniques.

    • If you're making images where the subject is far, remember you can inpaint eyes and faces selecting "only masked".

    • Stable Diffusion is great, have fun with it!

    @kreavic806 you don't need it anyway, it's baked in. Just select auto.

    I don't have the link rn and I'm not gonna be able to use my pc for maybe a week. Try searching on huggingface.

    jabaking04228Mar 18, 2023

    @Lykon Does it mean VAE has been embedded in this model

    kreavic806Mar 18, 2023

    @jabaking04228 Yes, baked mean it already have Vae in it.

    @jabaking04228 @kreavic806 exactly. The baked vae version has its own vae in it. You need to select "Auto" in your settings.

    Woah, these images (even if cherry-picked =) are something else. I've never or rarely seen hands with this much detail being generated by any model (without insano prompts). Looking forward to working with this! Thank you for the work you put in, be it LORAs or checkpoints, this community can only exist because of people like you (I'm not exaggerating - at all)!

    Edit: Surface detail is insanely high as well. Bravo!

    I agree! Looks dope af
