Illustrious Renaissance v6_NS Update
First things first: all the preview images you see here are pure Text-to-Image (t2i). No LoRAs, no Hires.fix, and no Face Detailer were used. What you see is exactly what the model can do out of the box.
Sorry for the silence! This update took a bit longer than I expected, but it’s because v6_NS is a total game-changer for the model's future.
I’ve been spending a ton of time in the "lab" experimenting and training text encoders from various models. The goal? To bake in enough flexibility so you can use your favorite LoRAs without headaches.
What does this mean for you? The model is now a bit of a hybrid. I’ve tuned it to be compatible with almost everything: SDXL, Illustrious, and Pony. I’ve also started adding support for Noob—some things already work, and full compatibility is next on my list.
It’s a work in progress: Is it 100% perfect? Not yet. But it’s finally at a point where it plays nice with a huge variety of LoRAs, and I wanted to get it into your hands as soon as possible.
I need your eyes on this! Try it out, break it, and please share your feedback and images. I really need to know how it’s performing for you so I can keep polishing it in the next updates.
Enjoy the new versatility! I hope you like it. —DeViLDoNia

Very nice! Think v4 is the best version since v1.0.D15 and v1.0.B03. Really easy to work with, excellent prompt/LoRA adherence and great IQ and realism for an illustrious model. Lots of fun and feels almost pony-like.
thank you!
Excuse me but what would be your most creative (meaning capable of different artstyle) checkpoint for illustrious? something versatile. would be this one? In short, the Realismfromhades XL but in illustrious.
Illustrious doesn't seem have too many western artistic checkpoints.
Illustrious Renaissance is basically the Illustrious adaptation of Realism from HaDeS XL, but of course, it still has a long way to go before it can match the full variety of styles that RfH XL can reproduce.
As for realistic art styles, I currently don’t have any model that stands out creatively across many different styles.
Maybe Realium is the wildest one in that sense — it’s a fully experimental model that I use to test concepts and ideas for future releases.
@DeViLDoNia nice, Renaissance is exactly what i wanted then. I'll probably check Realium out later. Thanks!
I was really impressed with the results of this checkpoint. Where others struggle giving me good results this was a charm.
Thanks so much for the kind words!
P.D. v5 is currently in testing, and it’s looking noticeably stronger than v4. If all goes well, I’ll likely upload it in about a week or so. Appreciate your support!
