    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

    I trained the model locally on the same dataset, but this version is much weaker in terms of the style as I didnt know the optimal paramters to set it o. It doesnt seem to do much of anything on pure anime Illustrious models outside of make the style slightly more realistic and detailed, but not photorealistic. However on NoobAI derived models, realistic models like reillusm, and modles like WAI, it seems to improve realism, in particular on models that have a small realistic image dataset but arent fully realistic (like NoobAI). The recommended trigger word is "source photo", but other realism takes help to bring out the style more. I recommend a strength of around 1.0, but on models that are already tuned for realism, you may need to turn it down to 0.9 or 0.8 to avoid distortions. I also recommended putting "anime,comic,plastic skin,overexposure" and the like in the negatives. For the sampler, I recommend Euler or Euler A, as DPM++ seems to produce distorted images, though maybe its due to my clip skip being set to 2. Euler A seems to work best at a CFG of around 3.
