Northern Gate ILLustrios XL2.0
Illustrious XL model can be used with different step counts. This is limited to 40 in standart generation page and limited to 60 in ComfyUI. Although, 20-28 step is enough in most cases. If composition is too detailed and results looks unfinished, you can increase steps to 40 to get more sharp and detailed images.
Steps: 20-40
CFG Scale: 3-7.5
Illustrious XL has smoother render with lower CFG while higher values increase contrast and saturation of outputs. Images can look over saturated with CFG values higher than 7.5 so it's recommended to stop at 7.5. If you use lower values than 3, results lose overall colors and look like it has fog filter. You can use CFG between 3-7.5 depending on your preference but 4.5-5 CFG is sweetpoint for general usage of Illustrious models.
Sampler: Euler a
Euler a is arguably the best sampler for Illustrious XL but model can work with many of samplers.
Clip Skip must be set on 2.
Model has NLP (natural language prompt) support alongside Danbooru tags.
