Always Use Artists

AUA is a model focused on artist styles. It is not meant to be used without them!

AUA seeks to emulate the use of artist styles and characters similar to NAI, without the need of piglatin codes, while still allowing its users to use their pre-collected Pony LoRAs. As stated in the name, the use of style LoRAs is not a requirement, the model being capable of emulating hundreds/thousands of styles by simply prompting for the artist names and/or combining more of them.

AUA's styles range from clean lineart, flat anime, to sketchy lines, pixel art, and even 2.5D. It's all in the artist names.

AUAP is a less intense version of AUA. Less contrast and reduced colors by merging in some Anima-Pencil. Difference charts will be posted in posts below the model.

AUA is a merge of multiple models stemming from Kohaku Epsilon, HoloDayo, Leek and Anime Confetti.

AUA's recommended prompting style is by using danbooru-style tags in the following order, however, feel free to experiment with rearranging them.:

by artist, by artist, 1girl, character name, character series, prompt, quality tags (masterpiece, etc, - optional)

AUA is relatively competent with NSFW prompts. While it isn't completely flawless, the dynamics of the image will make up for the occasional rerolls to fix a bad limb.

AUA is a tongue-in-cheek joke about the hiding of artist styles and characters in Pony models behind randomized name schemes. The first "Pony code" found was 'aua' which was linked to the character Houshou Marine. This quickly evolved into trying to find more codes in different spaces, similar to how Pirates would try to find the Mythic Treasure.

AUA's Artists and quality tags can change the end image a lot! Use them or your images will look awful. If you require a short list of sampled artists you can find it in the Training Data files of this model.

AUA is released under the Fair AI Public License like its ancestors.
