The flagship checkpoint of the SatyrRemix series — a versatile, style-flexible SDXL merge built on the Illustrious/NoobAI base, designed to handle whatever you throw at it while keeping anatomy clean and illustrations sharp.

Ankara is the generalist. Where its sibling Lycoris locks you into a specific watercolor-nostalgia aesthetic, Ankara stays out of your way and lets you drive. Artist tags work as expected, style prompts are respected, and you have full creative control over the final look — from painterly fantasy to clean cel-shading to detailed semi-realism.

What Ankara does well:

This model has been refined over eleven versions with a focus on strong anatomy, expressive character art, and broad subject range. It handles fantasy races and creature designs with particular confidence — centaurs, oni, harpies, dragon-folk, shark girls, you name it. Non-human anatomy like hooves, wings, tails, and claws stays coherent rather than melting into noise. It's equally comfortable with moody urban scenes, sweeping fantasy landscapes, action poses, and casual slice-of-life moments.

A note on content:

Ankara is intentionally built with mature content in mind. It will lean toward spicier output by default. If that's not what you're after, adding nsfw to your negative prompt will steer things in a safer direction for most generations. Think of the default as "uncensored canvas" — the model gives you the range, and you decide where the line is.

How it fits in the SatyrRemix series:

Ankara is your everyday workhorse. It's the model you reach for when you want quality output with maximum flexibility. If you're looking for something more experimental with a locked-in painterly aesthetic, check out Lycoris — same series, different philosophy.
