<h3 id="hmm...-sexy-2zdqlvo7j">Hmm... Sexy?</h3>The thing is that I fell in love with CuteLatte and did a few generations but I finally finished training this style and well, it's sexy, I have no idea how to explain it. XD<hr /><h3 id="il-or-v1:-2kkruoekv">IL | V1:</h3>It’s been three months since I finished working on the Testers. In the end, I never used them to update CuteLatte, but they became the core of everything that is Utopia (my checkpoint). Its first version includes data from these LoRAs and over 7,000 images.However, it's finally time to update Apocryphal.Apocryphal is a simple style—anime-inspired, with strong cartoon influence. It feels like a sketch with soft, pastel-like coloredos strokes. The Pony version includes the base style, an update, and an altered variant. While all versions handle mature content (NSFW) well, v2 and alter lean more heavily into those themes.With the Illustrious version, my goal was to merge all of that into a single file. The problem is, Illustrious doesn’t behave like Pony (PDXL), and that made things complicated.Creating a new style based on outputs from previous versions isn’t difficult—but repeating those exact steps is what led to the betas or testers (and honestly, I’m grateful for that).After lots of trial and error, several epochs, many training runs, and quite a few discards, I’ve chosen the best versions—the ones that feel closest to the original Apocryphal. They’re not a full retrain on a different model—rather, they are a true update to the original style.<hr /><h3 id="pdxl-or-v2.0-v2.0-(alter):-806z3zf5q">PDXL | V2.0 / V2.0 (Alter):</h3>I've been using Apocryphal for a few days and I love it but it has some problems detailing some suggestive poses and I decided to "update" it, I won't say that the new version is better because I only added poses and some extra shadows.(By shadows I mean that I improved the female genitals, they have more details and I also recommend using it together with the first version, I think it is a good complement ~)So... I just did something more seductive? Enjoy the lora ~<img src="https://image.civitai.com/xG1nkqKTMzGDvpLrqFT7WA/d4502297-7743-4491-88f9-82ba090f7120/width=525/d4502297-7743-4491-88f9-82ba090f7120.jpeg" /><hr /><h3 id="pdxl-or-v1.0-k17jc9wos">PDXL | V1.0</h3>Let's say CutteLatte was my second CuteMaster (I mean, I've used them quite a bit).CuteLatte has a beautiful realism that if you combine it with the chromatic aberration is a pretty cool style (I was actually surprised that that will happen)... but we didn't come to talk about that, the issue here is that I needed to empty my pc (again ) and I was thinking of giving a little push to my past generations before killing them and that is apocryphal, it is made with many styles that I made and I liked, new and old, what does it matter, I recovered several gigabytes and I am happy with the results.By the way, for some reason a lot of my styles work better with Euler a (I've actually only tried it on that and dpm++ a karras, the thing is, they work well there and it's faster).<img src="https://image.civitai.com/xG1nkqKTMzGDvpLrqFT7WA/6d75a26a-92a4-4294-9f93-74079ca9cc7c/width=525/6d75a26a-92a4-4294-9f93-74079ca9cc7c.jpeg" /><hr /><h3 id="il-or-style_b*(tester_g4+e12):-tr709vtxu">IL | Style_β*(Tester_G4+E12):</h3>I've been experimenting with some "Tester"-type versions, and decided to separate them out (not deleting them though). While they have some variations in code and structure, they still retain fragments of CuteLatte data, which created a smoothing effect that, honestly, I quite like.I won't use this as an update to the Apocryphal style, since I found images from the "Pony" version, and that's the one I've chosen as final (yes, there are like 20 variations… please end me). In the end, the Illustrious branch (this one here) drifted way too far from the original style—probably due to conflicts with Metanoia—but it’s fine: the result still looks nice.I might use this version to generate a new dataset for CuteLatte, which I haven’t really developed as much as I should’ve. For now, this one will remain a little easter egg hidden in the Apocryphal universe 🎁<img src="https://image.civitai.com/xG1nkqKTMzGDvpLrqFT7WA/f6aaee3d-ef9a-4ccb-8030-0e3b6cb23b5e/width=525/f6aaee3d-ef9a-4ccb-8030-0e3b6cb23b5e.jpeg" />
