Overview
This merge was created to attempt to adjust some of the prompt bias in the underlying model as well as an experiment in muting the some of the stylistic influence of Illustrious based models (very slightly! 😊)
I'm still playing with this a bunch, and it's very much just a pet project.
Recommend Settings
Sampler: Euler A or DPM++ 2M
Steps: 20-30
Clip Skip: 2
CFG: 4-7
Standard Illustrious quality prompts (pos/neg) should work fine.

Is it hard to merge an illustrious-based model with animagine?
The styles are quite different, so it was mostly about finding a good balance point between the two. With some blends, the model was definitely getting fried...
So I wouldn't say it's particularly hard... mostly just some experimentation to find the right mixture. 😊
what did you do about the clip incompatibility? I tried so many block merge permutations trying to keep the animagine clip with IL weights, and I was unsuccessful.
