A side-grade merge of several of my models (SteinIllustrious, Augenstein, and Illustein) using Merge Block Weighted merging experimentally - something that's new to me. This particular prototype seems to be a bit better at furry art than others, and folks seem to like the results, so, I figure it's time to give it an upload.
Recommended sampler: DDPM
Step Count: 30-40
Scheduler: Align Your Steps GITS
CFG: 4.5-5.5
Recognizes source and score tags (though these are not required), and tends to reach its peak aesthetics without a negative prompt.
Description
Further MBW merging with some of my other models to refine the style a bit more. Images tend to be a bit clearer and cleaner.

Really love this model! My experience is v1 does a better job with furries while v2 is better for a mixed anime look. Definitely worth taking out the negatives when genning. Maybe I should try that technique on some other checkpoints...
