Rather than a simple weighted sum, I used a custom script to calculate the "essence" (differences) of multiple specialized models relative to the SDXL Base 1.0, and then recomposed them into a unified checkpoint.Recommended SettingsTo get the best results with SAKURA_Pony_v0.3, please use the following settings:Base Model: SDXL 1.0 / PonySampler: EulerSteps: 30CFG Scale: 7.5 (Pony standard)Clip Skip: 2VAE: sdxl_vae.safetensors (or any SDXL-compatible VAE)

SAKURA_Pony
