Welcome to Erucation! This IllustriousXL model is a celebration of classic artistry, designed to bridge the gap between digital creation and the timeless feel of traditional media. It's crafted for those who want to infuse their work with a sophisticated, painterly quality.🎨 Model Style &amp; Inspiration Erucation is all about achieving a beautiful 2.5D semi-realistic aesthetic. It excels at creating images that feel like they were painted on canvas, with a rich, textured quality that mimics traditional art techniques. While it can certainly produce lovely anime-style illustrations, its true strength lies in generating that elegant, fine art look.🛠️ Merge &amp; Training Details The backbone of Erucation is built upon numerous LoRAs, many of which were trained in-house by Ktiseos Nyx. We're always experimenting and creating! Due to the wonderfully rapid pace of Ktiseos Nyx's LoRA development, we confess that sometimes the exact lineage of merged checkpoints becomes a delightful mystery. We believe in training as much as we can ourselves, but the spirit of community and shared creation is vital!✨ Recommended Settings To get the best out of Erucation, try these settings:<ul><li>Samplers: Euler or Euler Ancestral</li><li>Scheduler: Karras</li><li>Negative Prompt: Generally not needed! The model is designed to perform well without one, but feel free to experiment to refine your results.</li><li>HiRes Fix:<ul><li>Steps: 15</li><li>Denoise: 0.3</li><li>Upscale: 2x</li><li>Upscalers: Rex, 4x_Remacri, or your personal favorite.</li></ul></li><li>ADetailer: Use sparingly. Due to potential VAE differences, it might occasionally produce grey squares.</li><li>Embeddings: We've used some of our own custom embeddings to showcase character types in our examples, but no stylistic embeddings were necessary to achieve the core look.</li><li>LoRA Compatibility: Most LoRAs should be compatible with Erucation. However, keep in mind that the model has a very distinct "faux traditional" style. While a LoRA will function, it will be heavily influenced by the base model's aesthetic. Think of Erucation as a strong canvas – it provides the texture and foundation, and the LoRA adds the details.</li></ul>🙏 Acknowledgements A huge thank you to the incredible community members whose work and inspiration contribute so much.
