In depth retraining of Illustrious to achieve best prompt adherence, knowledge and state of the art performance. Big dreams come true The version number is just an index of current final release, not a fraction of the planned training. HF repo Large scale finetune using gpu cluster with a dataset of ~13M pictures (~4M with natural text captions) Fresh and wast knowledge about characters, concepts, styles, cultural and related things The best prompt adherence among SDXL anime models at the moment of release Solved main problems with tags bleeding and biases, common for Illustrious, NoobAi and other checkpoints Excellent aesthetics and knowledge across a wide range of styles (over 50,000 artists, including hundreds of unique cherry-picked datasets from private galleries, including those received from the artists themselves) High flexibility and variety without stability tradeoff No more annoying watermarks for popular styles thanks to clean dataset Vibrant colors and smooth gradients without trace of burning, full range even with epsilon Pure training from Illustrious v0.1 without involving third-party checkpoints, Loras, tweakers, etc. There are also some issues and changes compared to the previous version, please RTFM. Dataset cut-off - end of April 2025.
