It handles glossy, light-rich portraits as comfortably as flat, graphic, almost vector-style art — without breaking character consistency or anatomy.<h2 id="what-it-does-well">What it does well</h2><ul><li>Detailed, expressive eyes with strong highlight control</li><li>Clean lineless rendering with soft volumetric lighting</li><li>Flexible range: from flat-color illustration to semi-real glossy finish</li><li>Strong with atmospheric scenes (rain, neon, night cityscapes) and dramatic high-contrast compositions</li></ul><h2 id="recommended-settings">Recommended settings</h2><ul><li>Sampler: [Euler a / DPM++ 2M Karras/Akium]</li><li>Steps: [25–35]</li><li>CFG: [4–7]</li><li>Hires Fix: 4x-AnimeSharp/0.2-0.3</li><li>Clip skip: 2</li><li>VAE: [baked-in]</li><li>Negative: your usual quality negatives (es. <code>lowres, bad anatomy, worst quality, ...</code>)</li></ul><h2 id="prompting-tips">Prompting tips</h2>Standard Illustrious / Danbooru tag format works best. Lead with quality tags, then subject, then style/lighting. For the more semi-real look, push lighting and detail tags; for the flat illustrative style, keep prompts simpler and lighter on rendering tags.<h3 id="usage-guidelines">📋 Usage Guidelines</h3>✅ Merge Friendly: Free to use in your own personal merges and creative workflows.❌ Commercial Restrictions: Do not resell this model or market direct merges of it as paid content.🤝 Credit: Attribution is not mandatory but is always appreciated to help the community grow.Part of the Akium line by AkiumAI.
