An exploration of light, shadow and the space between photography and illustration.

Hollowlight is a cinematic style LoRA exploring darker atmospheres, pronounced contrast and expressive lighting.

It tends to deepen shadows, influence color relationships and introduce a greater sense of depth and texture. Depending on the subject, the result may take on a more photographic appearance while retaining elements of its original artistic style.

From photography to watercolor, anime and painterly illustrations, Hollowlight brings its own interpretation of light, color and atmosphere.

The result is a blend of cinematic aesthetics, dreamlike qualities and stylistic experimentation.

Trigger and Strength

Trigger word: None

Hollowlight's influence varies across models and subjects. Lower strengths generally offer a lighter interpretation, while higher strengths may produce more pronounced changes to lighting, colors, textures and composition.

Stronger settings can also alter proportions, object relationships and fine details. Higher strength does not necessarily produce a more desirable result.

For recommended strengths and inference settings, please refer to the notes for the specific model version.
