Massive thanks to @NicoGJ and @BetterThanNothing for their amazing models Toonify and Prancing Invasion Ribbon Wave.
My Bakas Mix collection is almost complete with this one. this completes the Cartoon checkpoint in this series. after this i plan to try out a 2.5D style, and unless i come up with another genre of style worthy for a checkpoint (or if someone recommends one), that will be it for the bakas mixes.
This model is my favorite probably. it does wonders. its scene setup, character creation, unique style, and super easy promtping brought me back to the very core idea of why i decided to make these models. if i had to point you towards any of my models, it would be this one and the dumb version, as they most accurately represent my goal here. to make FUN models to use above all else. i hope you all fw it
Strengths (more ego inflation)
-This might be the easiest of all my models so far to jump right into. all of my models are technically the same, and they all understand the same concepts, but this one in particular has such a great understanding of where things go in a scene. it makes for a really easy and fun to use model
-NSFW is pretty niiiiiiice. this style just looks really nice for nsfw and can create some fun composition.
-Anatomy. anatomy is pretty great with this one. hands and eyes will not be a problem here
-Pony Score Tags, i have never even used these in any image ive ever made with this model, maybe its better, maybe not, but they are certainly not needed
Weaknesses (trying not to be biased ðŸ˜)
TBH this checkpoint probably has the least amount of weaknesses. i cant think of anything it does bad. while all of my other checkpoints had some small gripes, just some biases due to the nature of merging and styling, this one does not carry any biases of glitches or bugs. its all around just really strong
Settings. All of the showcase images you see are completely stock with no post editing, no fancy comfyUI nodes, no controlnet, no inpainting. the only "post" thing i do is a latent upscale (hi res fix in forge and A1111). ive used ComfyUI (stock nodes), and Forge for the images seen, and copying the image into comfy/forge should give you the exact shit i did. i have also used the model in Fooocus, as well as sites like SeaArt, with no problems.
i RARELY had to re roll with this one. once i got the prompt the way i wanted, i was getting most of the images you see above in my first roll
for transparency sake i figured i would mention these. i can be confident in saying you wont need to reroll much due to awful anatomy, incoherent images, or artifacts
Steps: 30 or more, never tested under that, but im considering a lightning version of this. lemme know if u want that
Sampler: any of the DPM's with karras lol, im sure others will work fine
Negative Prompt: just used a copy paste i made years ago, as seen in the preview images, big negatives wont effect quality negatively, and small ones proly wont decrease quality much idk, just put watermark tags in there
Latent Upscale For ComfyUI: i use bislerp at the same Ksampler settings as your base image, and a denoise of 0.55-0.75, with a 1.20x upscale for speed
Hi Res Fix For Forge, A1111: I truthfully have not messed around much, but i use the standard 4xUltraSharp, with a denoise of 0.55-0.75, and an upscale of 1.20x. no other settings are touched
NOW AS FOR THE LISENCE, ITS A SUPER STRICT ONE THAT STATES.... just kidding, do what you want, the amazing creators of the models i based this model off of dont push a disgusting agenda
although, if you make something cool with the model, i would love to see it. not nessacery, but credit would be nice, mainly just so i have a way of finding the cool shit yall make.. and dont be weird or evil, your responsible for that
give the creators listed above buzz or a comment, like, money, mouth kisses, idk, something that helps
P.S. this will be on all of these places under my BakaBlitz name and model name: Civit.ai, Salt.ai, Tensor.art, SeaArt, HuggingFace, and any other place you ask for thats not super weird lmao
