Boss Battle - By HailoKnight

This LoRA is to make a cool boss fights, inspired by dark souls, elden ring, COD zombies and latest lora is inspired by spirit animals / spirit bosses. Im not that good at prompting, so will be cool to see what you can make!
If you like what I do feel free to support me on Ko-Fi☕
Things To know:
All Spirit boss images are done with my new Checkpoint Arcanius
You should use the trigger word Bosstyle
This lora worked really good with my Fantasty Knight LoRA, it added good details and better bosses for some reason!!
Usage Tips IL :
The LoRA weight I have been using is 0.9, but feel free to try and experiment!
I have used ComfyUI when generated pictures and the settings im using are:
Sampler: dpm_2
Scheduler: Karras
Steps: 30CFG: 6
For A1111 enjoyers, I would use:
Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karras
Steps: 30Example prompts used:
"Masterpiece (quality), 1girl, wearing magical armor, holding a sword, fighting a giant dragon, dragon boss, bosstyle. magical forest with flowers in background"
First image is with my LoRA and second is without my LoRA, same prompt and model.

I had it under SDXL. I will be able to compare if Flux does better with it than without.
You mean Guidance, right?
Usage tips Flux:
CFG: 3.5 ?
You mean Guidance, right?
IIRC CFG = classifier free guidance. CFG is what is used in Comfyui, I think it was different in A1111/SDN though. Comfy is worth swapping to though, unless you're a settings junkie. Cuz comfy has nothing for settings, but WAY more configurable on the front-end.
@Lazman I have never used anything other than Comfyui.
In my workflow, I use the Fluxguidance node where we set the guidance. I don't have a cfg node unlike when I was playing with sdxl
@diaserikcg114 I still use SDXL cuz I'm not rich, so can't reasonably afford a 4090. 4060ti is what I set my cap at. I paid 2k total for my entire PC (and use my 65" TV as the monitor). I Can run flux, but given the extra resources required for it, I think there's better potential with SDXL. Especially if I can manage to perfect my lora training and train some top notch loras with 1536 res images.
Besides, there's a lot more resources for SDXL, since it's been around longer, and a lot of creators are still hardware limited. Also easier to get SDXL working than flux, since ya don't need extra text encoders, or to sign(click) any legal contract on the hugface site in order to use it. Honestly, even SDXL is still catching up in some areas. There's certain resources I noticed are out for SD1.5 but not for SDXL. like the handfixer controlnet(at least, I haven't found one for SDXL, yet).
@Lazman I started AI with a 1050ti, I understand ;-) I had time to save up to change my PC and buy a super 4080.
Since I use this PC for work, I cut back on all other hobbies. I think many will understand ;-)
I admit that I hesitated for a long time to switch to Flux: sdxl is more flexible to use while Flux only has the quality of its image for the moment.
I thought that would change quite quickly but I am increasingly considering going back to SDXL and only using Flux in img2img to finalize my work.
@diaserikcg114 Yea.. I'm loosely considering trying flux for outpainting, cuz SDXL is not doing it good atm. But there's a good chance I just don't have my settings right. To be fair, I'm also trying a lot of things at once, so it's a bit chaotic. I'm attempting to refine my controlnet setup for directly turning 2D flat images into full 3D/photoreal. Also testing a workflow with 36 prompt windows connected to 6 switch boxes (RGThree node), that way I can easily swap between pre-defined prompt setups.
Like, one for visual settings(scores, realism, visual effects, etc.), one for scene (city, sci-fi, caverns, etc.), one for character/s, one for actions, one for clothing/jewelry, etc. But, sadly, when I tried to run it, I got some error about the controlnet not being iterable. So, I'll have to look into that. it might work without controlnet, but I haven't tested yet, and I got lost in testing new controlnet models after I got the error.
Apart from that, also testing IP adapters(to a lesser extent). Still gotta learn how those work, and see if/how I can tie them together with controlnets(and which ones) in order to maximize control over my workflow/s.
And when I'm not doing any of that, I'm attempting to streamline my settings in Onetrainer. I just attempted to use prodigy instead of Adamw for the first time when attempting to train a lora based on Dundas square in Toronto. Failed miserably. 142 epochs, and the 20-50-142 epoch versions won't generate anything to do with the input data, so, prodigy may be crap, or it's possibly to do with the fact that I didn't caption well enough, or the fact that I boosted the lora rank over 16, up to 64 that run. (and 32 on a prior run with it).
I have tried many times to get this to work with absolutely no luck. Sad to see
Hmm sad to hear, maybe some unlucky prompting
Don't Sleep on this Lora!
With the right Lora Loader Nodes in ComfuUI this can be used with HunYuanVideo to influence the outputs pretty well!
Super cool!
Really cool idea for a lora! I like it a lot! Any plans for an illustrious version?
Didnt have any plans for it but I dont see why not!
Now you got it ;)
@HailoKnight hype!
