MIKAN_Pony_v0.9 is a high-quality model based on the Pony Diffusion V6 XL architecture.

Built around the concept of "Balanced East Asian Realism," this model achieves a refined fusion of East Asian facial aesthetics, photorealistic rendering, and strong prompt responsiveness. While preserving the compositional flexibility and expressive power inherent to Pony-based models, it has been specially fine-tuned to enhance realistic skin textures, facial structures, and natural lighting.

### Technical Details (Differential Weighted Merge)

This model was created using a Differential Merge technique (Delta Merging). Rather than a simple weighted sum, I used a custom script to calculate the "essence" (differences) of multiple specialized models relative to SDXL Base 1.0, and then recomposed them into a unified checkpoint.

### Recommended Settings

To get the best results with MIKAN_Pony_v0.9, please use the following settings:

* Base Model: SDXL 1.0 / Pony

* Sampler: Euler

* Steps: 30

* CFG Scale: 7.5 (Pony standard)

* Clip Skip: 2

* VAE: sdxl_vae.safetensors (or any SDXL-compatible VAE)
