    Chainmail Shirt (Pony) - V1

    An attempt to make subdued historically accurate chainmail. Prompt is "Suozijia" (Transliteration of the Chinese word for "Chainmail"), which works well with "Chainmail" for emphasis.

    V1 Notes:

    • Will create 3d models at high weights if not countered through prompts/other loras due to the dataset being largely realistic.

    • Do not use "Armor" as it will just turn it into plates.

    • Even XL isn't good enough with textures to make it reliably look like 'proper' chainmail. Sometimes it'll just look like snakeskin.


    Will attempt to improve it but some technological issues may be insurmountable.

    Description

    Initial rough release.

    Kinda works from my tests, but it doesn't really like character loras, and seems to be way into making "hip shields" that leave the pelvis exposed (which wasn't really a thing). It doesn't like lower body clothes being specified at all. Seems to be trained with (or getting from "chainmail") a lot of fantasy armor in general since I get plates sown into chest (even some that look like nipples!), mail vests, and other oddities.

    I think training it with, and making it dependent upon calling, "chainmail" was a mistake. It inherits way too many problems with SD's native calling.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    1: It's still a first draft with feedback like this being vital.
    2: I think for the next attempt I'm going to try and obliviate the need for "chainmail" simply by deep-frying its training, which probably isn't going to help with character loras but oh well.

    @coileralt I'm not an expert on LoRA training, but I was thinking just just not training it on the word "chainmail" at all, since it's so tainted for SD, letting the LoRA treat the shirt of mail as just a particular article of clothing.

    @NanashiAnon I actually didn't train it on that word but (in a sign I might have undertrained it) it looked too often like normal clothes. Which is probably a sign that I need to up the heat in the next attempt.
