Anima
This is the Anima Base Version of my Model

Its not perfect, but im steadily improving it.
I did NOT bake turbo loras in, if you want fast generation you have to use the lora. I´m not a fan of baking turbo loras into models.


sampler: er_sde or eulera_a
scheduler:simple

cfg:4-7

steps:20-50

prepending "cartoon" helps with getting more cartoon like results.
Stuff like "western cartoon style, bold outlines, black outlines,toon,disney,pixar" also helps.
And putting anime/realistic tags in the negative prompt.
Experiment with it until you like it.
I hope you have fun with this model.

I have used natural language and tags in the training data.



Illustrious:
This is the second version of my checkpoint. It uses a different VAE, aims for a more cartoony style, and differs significantly from v1.

To increase the level of cartoon look, use "cartoon" or "toon" in your prompt.

Settings
CFG 2–6, minimum 15 steps.

Euler Ancestral, Karras, or
DPM_2, SGM Uniform

I prefer CFG 4–6.

I used FaceDetailer and lazy embeddings for some of the showcase images. If you use DMD2, the results will look more cartoony. Most of the showcase images were created without DMD2.
