Here is V1 of my WildSwanku style for Illustrious XL models! It has some quality issues that can be fixed with inpainting or hi-res fix. I plan to test it more with the on-site generator and may make adjustments/updates as needed.

This is using the same dataset as my WildSwanku Pony V2 model.

Testing Update #3:

I found a way to get much closer to my original style!

Along with the default prompt from Holy Mix/Illustrious, I add "toon style" and "flat shading". I experiment with weight of "toon style" between 0.8 and 1, and LoRA weight between 0.75 and 1. Example images will be posted soon and I may replace the original post as this is much closer to the intended style.

Testing Update #2:

I don't think the Illustrious default settings (24 steps, Euler A, CFG 6) are doing us any favors with this LoRA. I have been trying DPM++ 3M Karras and DPM++ 2M SDE Karras with 30 steps and 7.5 CFG and getting good results for a single subject. Multi-subject still comes with issues, particularly on the eyes, but they're easily fixed with inpainting. Bad eyes when they aren't in focus/up close are a common problem across many models.

Testing Update #1:

Illustrious responds well to the tags "toon style" and "flat shading". It can almost reach my style simply by using those tags. So, using those tags and lowering the weight of the LoRA works well and helps alleviate some of the quality issues. Apparently the on-site trainer did not keep any versions of the LoRA except the one I published, so all the earlier epochs are gone. I may retrain this model at some point to see if less epochs worked better.
