    Title: illustraVERSA – (Illustrious Merge)

    Description:
    illustraVERSA is a custom merged checkpoint combining Arthemy Comics V4.5 (Illustrious) and Animij v6 to create a versatile, high-quality illustration model. This merge preserves the broad prompting understanding and stylistic flexibility of Arthemy’s checkpoint while integrating Reijlitas’s refined details, offering exceptional results across a wide range of CFG values (from 8 to even above 10).

    Whether you’re creating comic-style illustrations, bold linework, or expressive character art, illustraVERSA delivers consistent quality and detail, making it a reliable choice for both experimental and polished outputs.

    • This model is intended for use in ComfyUI with SDXL-based workflows.

    • LoRAs used are KFC secret recipe

    Description

    My goal was to achieve a checkpoint that could achieve Comic COVER quality images.
    Keeping that hand drawn, inked, than digitally colored type of aesthetic, straight from the box without the need of extra loras.
    After mixing various checkpoints and injecting loras, I am finally satisfied with the outcome.
