r3mix, a Quantum Merge

This merge is designed to create a model that generates visually appealing anime style images with minimal anatomical inconsistencies while preserving the extensive conceptual and stylistic knowledge of Illustrious, Noob, and their finetunes. Utilizing a combination of quantum and standard checkpoint merging, r3mix is built from the following models (listed in no particular order):

• ΣΙΗ

• naiXLVpred102d_final / naiXLVpred102d_custom

• noob_v29checkpoint-e0_s4000

• chromayumeNoobaiXLNAI_v10

The resulting merge retains the aesthetic quality of ΣΙΗ while reducing excessive gloss—a feature often associated with AI Images. By integrating models with strong style replication capabilities, such as naiXLVpred102d and chromayumeNoobaiXLNAI_v10, and merging them onto noob_v29checkpoint-e0_s4000 as a foundation, r3mix enhances anatomical stability, refines line art, reduces artifacts, and strengthens overall style consistency.

Recommended Settings

It is highly recommended that different steps & CFG scale are used based on the sampler.

• Sampler: Euler CFG++

  • Steps: 20-30

  • CFG scale: 1-2

• Sampler: Euler / Euler a

  • Steps: 25-30

  • CFG scale: 4-5-6

The rest of these settings apply to any sampler choice.

• Scheduler : Simple

• Resolution: 768x1344, 832x1216, 896x1152, 1024x1024, 1152x896, 1216x832, 1344x768 (Use a resolution that does not exceed 1024 * 1024 pixels)

• Use Hi-Res Fix and ADetailer as needed

  • When using latent upscale, pick a denoise strength of 0.53-0.55

  • When using ADetailer, set the Inpaint mask blur to 8-16

Recommended Positive Prompt

masterpiece, best quality, 

Recommended Negative Prompt

Keep your negatives simple — Add on to it whenever you encounter something unintended!

worst quality, lowres, artist name, watermark, 
censored, bar censor, mosaic censoring,  

Other Notes
