After creating a realism Lora for PonyXL, I decided to create one for illustrious, as it seems to be able to create an even wider variety of characters than pony, and it seems to be a lot better at prompt adherence. This Lora should be able to make realistic images in a variety of illustrious models. I recommend you check the release notes each version of the model for what it can do.
Description
Updated version trained on an expanded dataset using civitai's training service. This version produces significantly improved backgrounds,especially natural ones, and better animals though its slightly worse at making vehicles. The realism for some characters is also not as strong, but the overall realistic effect of images is improved. I recommend using DPM2a as the sampler with about 28-35 steps and a CFG around 2.5. The trigger word is just "source_photo", but adding "realistic,photo_(medium) can also help on some NoobAI based models.
