I present my attempt at a Illustrious character LoRA for Munehisa Iwai from Persona 5.

V3 is my third version and attempt further increase the detail level of generations. I started over on my training set for this one to try and make it more versatile. In my testing this version worked a bit better with 2D/anime styles compared to my other versions.

LoRA strength recommendations

• Use LoRA strength 0.7 with about CFG 3-4.

The tags for V3 are as follows:

main tags

m_iwai, 1boy, mature male, neck tattoo

• neck tattoo - can be a bit temperamental at times, you can just leave this tag out if you don't care about full accuracy of the original character likeness (character asymmetry and AI do not go well together).

outfit tags

pinstripe hat, ear protection, black turtleneck, grey long coat, hood down, jeans, boots

optional tags:

lollipop, pierced ear

The settings I used for my generation testing were 3-5 CFG, 20 steps, DPM++ 2M SDE - Karras on Forge with an adetailer (face_yolov8s).

V2 is my second attempt and to try increasing the detail level of generations. In my testing this version definitely responded better to realistic prompt tags and looked much sharper on the results. If you want a softer look use anime and other such tags or just use V1 of the LoRA instead.

LoRA strength recommendations

• Use LoRA strength 0.7 with about CFG 3-5.

The tags for V2 are as follows:

main tags
