Copper Thyme
This one’s built around Illustrious SDXL and tuned with a few hand-picked LoRAs for lighting and anatomy. It’s less stylized than my other Rusty Iron Peper merge. So don’t expect the huge hips, razor-sharp faces, or that heavy comic-book grit. This version leans cleaner and more natural: smoother lines, softer expressions, and better material lighting overall.
It hits that middle ground between realistic and illustrated — still has character, but it won’t over-bake the details. Think polished concept-art energy instead of over-rendered pin-ups. Skin looks warmer, metal and cloth actually have texture, and the overall tone fits fantasy, modern, or soft-erotic work really well.
If you liked the last one but wanted something easier to control for lighting, poses, and anatomy balance — this is that.
Use detailers for the eyes and face if you’re going close-up, and try 1024+ for the best results.

Description
Copper Thyme Furry
Copper Thyme Furry is a furry checkpoint built from my original Copper Thyme v1 Illustrious merge. It was modified to produce a wider range of furry, anthro, animal-like, fantasy, and creature-based characters while keeping the painterly style of the original model.
The model still carries Copper Thyme’s traditional-media look: visible brush texture, earthy colors, darker tonal depth, heavier shadows, and a hand-finished illustration feel. It is not trying to be a clean, generic furry model. The goal is furry character art with texture, mood, and weight.
The other major part of the model’s identity is its anime bara male bias. By default, Copper Thyme Furry tends to produce broader, more muscular anthro bodies with thick limbs, strong chests, heavier proportions, and a more mature masculine look. This gives it a distinct body style compared to furry checkpoints that lean softer, slimmer, cuter, or more standard anime.
That bias can also influence female characters. When the body type is not clearly prompted, female characters may come out larger, broader, more muscular, or more mature-looking than expected. Depending on the style you want, this can be a positive or a negative. It can work well for powerful women, mature anthro designs, fantasy warriors, dominant characters, or heavier erotic body types. But if you want a petite, slim, soft, youthful, or more traditionally feminine silhouette, you should prompt that directly.
So the simple version is: Copper Thyme Furry is a painterly furry checkpoint with earthy traditional-media texture and a strong anime bara anatomy bias. It has range, but it has a very clear default. Understanding that default is the key to controlling the model.

Right out of the gate I generated some great images. I loved the look and feel of the images and will look forward to using it more in the future.
