    ✦ Arthemy Comics Illustrious - Quick Start ✦

    I really struggled to generate "western illustrations" the Illustrious model and after a lot of tries and more than 300 iterations and 60 LoRA trained on my own handmade illustrations and handwritten prompts, I think I've managed to create a pretty reliable solution.
    I suggest you to use my quick prompts as a "quick start" and then move from there in the directions you prefere.

    Afterall - they are called Checkpoints for a reason!

    1_____Size: Around 1024 x 1280

    2_____Prompt: Start from the prompts present here and tune the keywords based on your needs:

    • Quick Prompt

      masterwork, masterpiece, cartoon screenshot, movement, depth, complex lighting, lineart, complex shadows, character design, old-school, vintage fantasy, dynamic pose, official art, 
      
      (insert your prompt here!)
    • Quick Negative Prompt

      sketch, chibi, big head, collage, low quality, worst quality, text, signature, jpeg artifacts, bad ???????, bad hands, six fingers, extra fingers, heterochromia, blurry, graphite \(medium\), yellowed, muted, (no lineart), (3d:0.7), limited palette,
      
      (insert your prompt here)

    3_____CFG: 5.0 to 7.0

    4_____Steps: 45 to 50
    (I've noticed that 30-40 steps are not usually enough to solve the image completely)

    I hope you like my models and I can't wait to see what you all are going to create with it!

    Description

    When a checkpoint reaches a certain level of fine-tuning, it becomes necessary to consider what you want to gain with the new version and what you are willing to lose.
    In my case, what I aimed to achieve with the new version is:

    • A clearer distinction between different elements (the previous model sometimes mixed a cloak with armor or made hair green when I had asked for green fur)

    • More defined eyes (some characters came out with blurry eyes)

    • A slightly more cartoon-like style in the characters’ shapes

    What it might have lost:

    • The images are slightly less intricate (moving toward a cartoon style tends to simplify the forms somewhat)
