Inspired by <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Gruau">René Gruau</a>'s fashion illustrations, this LoRA tries to produce images that imitate fashion illustrations. For the real deal, please go to <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="http://www.gruaucollection.com/">http://www.gruaucollection.com/</a>The training trigger "regr1 sketch/illustration" is probably not required, but it does not hurt to put it in. But you do need to put in "sketch" or "illustration".Known problems:<ul><li>The LoRA sometimes produces people with three legs or even missing arm when they are in profile, if that happens, just change seed or try to lower the weight.</li><li>The Shōjo version can only produce androgynous looking men, but then that's Shōjo for you 😅</li></ul>You can try to put in the optional "background is stark white" to see if you get a more interesting image.Please post your first image directly here (click on "Add Post" above the gallery), and I will give you 10 buzz for the post (If I forgot, just complain loudly 😎)From Chat GPT:René Gruau (1909–2004) was an influential Italian-born French illustrator and artist, celebrated for his work in fashion illustration.
