After the failure of the first model, I decided to give it another try, this time with the new fast training option for Flux loras and, lo and behold, it actually worked!

This lora is meant to emulate the aesthetic of Italian comic book artist and illustrator Sergio Toppi, trained on a selected sample of his work that I gathered online and from scans of books of his I own.

The model has no activation words, but keywords that help the style are: surreal, highly stylized, dreamlike, intricate hatching, swirling pattern, intricate illustration, ink pen illustration, graphic novel.
