If you want to support me, consider liking the model and tipping buzz!
LustrousMix aims to serve as a bridge between 2D and 2.5D checkpoints, with vibrant colors, and good contrast.
No need to use bloatware embeddings, they will not make your images better.
Using 3D in your negatives will alter the look of the checkpoint, it is not necessary at all, only use it if you prefer the way it looks with it more than how I use it.
Recommended settings :
Positive prompt : score_9, score_7_up, source_anime
Negative prompt : monochrome, greyscale
Sampler : Euler a
I highly recommend using the ADetailer extension for better faces.
VAE is baked in.
I've included the different models I used in the merge in the suggested resources, check them out!
Hope you enjoy!

What is the difference between 1.0 and 2.0?
More contrast, better backgrounds, less of the blurry / bloomy effect and yellowish light around characters.
There's some small changes in the style of faces as well, and I like the way it looks with greyscale on top of monochrome in negative better than it did in v1.
I really like this model. It gives a great comic book feel to the generations. Even when I do not like the interpretation, there is a still a very nice balance between realism, whimsy, and solid drawing
I can't upvote this model enough. It's like the perfect default model - any prompt works properly with it. Thank you for creating it!
looks good ?
I love the model but sometimes images are generated with very high contrast and they look very ugly, how can I correct that?
I'm having a lot of fun with this model. I'm getting some really high-quality images with it and it's very flexible. In my experimentation, I like how things turn out better with DPM++ SDE Karras, but maybe I need to experiment with Euler A more. Thanks for all the hard work!
How to describe a tall, slender girl with long legs.
tall, skinny, long legs
absolutely love this style, but i cant replicate it, the colour and shading what loras do you use can you upload a work flow.
I'm gonna need you to post an image with metadata so I can see what you're using and your results
i can do that but im just using strait comfyui and your checkpoint thats all, now and then ill add Disney princess style lora
Simply amazing
Hello sir, nice job! I know it sounds dumb, but could you tell me if this checkpoint should be merged with a primary model? If yes, what multiplier toward this one should I consider? Thanks a lot! <3
Great checkpoint! <3 greetz sunspin99
I don't know why, but hoseki doesn't work?
It's because of their new auction thing where you need to bid buzz on checkpoints to get them on the generator. I'll try to get it back on for next week.
@Hoseki thank you Hoseki sama
@Hoseki week? 😔😢
Thanks anyway
Model is back online for this week, gonna try to keep it up from now on.
Easily best for cartoon generation!
I got distracted by IRL matters and missed the auction by a couple of hours, it was eligible last time I checked but got outbid in the final hours. Let's try again next week...
If any of you guys want to help me keep track of it weekly in case I forget to, it'd be really appreciated.
Sending me a DM if you see this model or the Illustrious version not being in the top 200 near the end would help since there's a notification sound.
The truth is the auction system is garbage
@N201 I'm definitely not a fan
@Hoseki x2
This really pisses off the creators. Damn whoever invented this stupid auction. This is for spending money and Buzz, the idiot, or he forces you to spend money. That's not cool.
sistema subasta es una basura otra ves quitaron uno de los que mas uso lo quita no vale tio deverian quitar eso subatasta es paga que gasten dinero
Model is available for generation again...
Even so, it is an auction system, this is garbage, the truth is, now they removed many of the illusion, they left more shit and the least use it and thanks for enabling it
One of the greatest checkpoint I discovered. It's another Hassaku XL (Pony) alternative. Use this to create a beautiful pictures of your prompts. Highly reccomend!
Back on the generator.
Very nice this us quite useful
With Civitai's auctions now only using the top 100 checkpoints, it cost me around 26k buzz to get LustrousMix [Pony XL] on the generator for this week, when it brings me less than 1k daily.
I kept it up for this week, but I will most likely not be able to sustain it, given the low amount of generations it gets.
If you have spare buzz, consider helping out in the weekly auctions, it would be appreciated.
