Like Fantasy & Sci-fi Art? Check Out My New Model : Doomer Boomer

Description

Built with 1980s - 1990s fantasy/sci-fi illustrations in mind but is capable of much more.

This model is a "prequel" to a much larger custom trained model I'm working on. The future model is trained will be trained on ~1k manually captioned fantasy/sci-fi illustrations from the 1980s-1990s. The future model will be named "Boomer Art Diffusion"

The base model for Electric Eden (this model) is an undertrained sample of Boomer Art Diffusion. Being undertrained, I merged a few models with the base to fit the model properly. A list of the models used in the merge can be found in the "About this version" tab.

To get the classic image style use :

Artist names from the era
- Boris Vallejo, Frank Frazetta, Julie Bell, Jeff Easley, Larry Elmore, Luis Royo, Olivia de Berardinis, Jean Henri Gaston Giraud (or) Jean Moebius Giraud
- A full list of artists will be available when the full model is released.
Heavy Metal Magazine Cover art <1977-1996>

Dates are important. Try adding a year somewhere in the prompt.
- Notably 1980 to 1996

For Modern 3D renders :

Nothing special, prompt as usual for this type of generation.

For Anime Style :

(Anime Style)
- Feel free to adjust the weights as needed, example (Anime Style:1.2)

A version of this model that uses Booru tags can be made if requested enough.

Important Settings / Recommendations

VAE :

vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.safetensors

Note : you can use the pytorch (.ckpt) version if needed

Install :

stable-diffusion-webui -> models -> VAE

In Webui :

Under Settings -> Stable Diffusion -> SD VAE select the downloaded VAE and uncheck Ignore selected VAE for stable diffusion checkpoints that have their own .vae.pt next to them

Negative Embeddings :

bad_prompt_version2
- Weight in samples images : (bad_prompt_version2:0.8)
bad-hands-5
EasyNegative

How to install :

place .pt files in stable-diffusion-webui -> embeddings

Note : Negative embeddings are not required, but were used in the creation of the sample images. You can change the weight (overall affect on output) by using Attention/emphasis for example; (easynegative:0.5), (bad-hands-5:0.6)

Webui Settings :

Clip Skip : 1
- Settings -> Sampler parameters -> Clip skip
ETA Noise Seed Delta : 31337
- Settings -> Sampler parameters -> Eta noise seed delta
Face Restoration : Disabled
- See "Adetailer" for more info.
- IF enabled : Settings -> Face restoration -> CodeFormer -> weight = 0.8

Parameters :

Sampler :
- I used a combination of Euler a, DPM++ SDE Karras for many of the sample images, but this is just personal preference.
Steps : Depends on the sampler, typically 20 - 35 works well.
- If DDIM use higher steps
CFG :
- Electric Eden v1 - 6.5 - 10
- Electric Eden v1 Dark - 5 - 7

Hires Fix (Optional) :

Upscaler :
- R-ESRGAN 4x+
  - Denoising strength : 0.3 - 0.35
  - Upscale by : 1.5 - 2 (can go lower but shouldn't go higher than 2)
- Lolipop, 4x-UltraSharp, Remacri (foolhardy)
  - Can be downloaded here
  - Install to stable-diffusion-webui -> models -> ESRGAN
  - Typically Denoise ~= 0.5 - 0.6 (can go higher or lower)
  - Upscale by : 1.5 - 2
