ScytheXL版本v0.24.224.05 (Prototype) (Prototype) 综合资源合集综合资源合集

DISCLAIMER: This is my first attempt at training for Stable Diffusion. Despite all the time and effort put into it, I consider this version of ScytheXL, v0.24.224.05, a prototype. So you may encounter some odd results and/or other bugs during use, ones I will do everything I can to resolve for future versions of ScytheXL. That said, thank you in advance for all for your patience, as well as for any help/improvements you may be able to provide!

TIPS: Ko-Fi

QUICK DETAILS:

ScytheXL is a simple SDXL LoRA made to generate scythes and characters holding scythes using Stable Diffusion's SDXL 1.0 models.
This LoRA was trained on SDXL 1.0 Base, and then two versions with different desired strengths/weaknesses were merged into each other to stabilize the resulting output.
As such, this LoRA seems to work on most realistic models of base SDXL 1.0 heritage I've tried. But unrealistic SDXL 1.0 models produce some results that are... interesting.
I trained this LoRA on the base SDXL VAE, so I've been using that during testing. Although I prefer Sharp Spectrum and Flatpiece VAEs over the base SDXL VAE.
It is imperative that you use the trigger word or phrase if you want this LoRA to work, these being "scyth3" and "holding a scyth3". Very important!
The strength settings I used varied by model but, typically, sat between 0.65 to 0.85. Usually 0.7 or 0.75 works perfectly. But I varied this more for unrealistic models.
I went through pretty much every sampler available in Forge during testing. This LoRA performed reasonably well all around. So my sampler recommendation is "dealer's choice".
CFG isn't something I normally play with, so I've just been going between CFG 6 and CFG 7. Another "dealer's choice", if that's something you use.
Hires Fix and ADetailer were used with sample images. I used Foolhardy's Remacri at 2x with Denoise at 0.39 for HRFix, and then ADetailer on face and hands.

THE STORY:

This project started in June 2024 while working on another Stable Diffusion related project involving a character that was meant to wield a scythe. A plain, traditional, reaper-esque scythe. I started with some GPT-infused, next level prompt engineering, and then I tried looking for LoRA models and Embeddings meant to generate scythes, but none really existed. Eventually I came to the realization this just couldn't be done with the tools available. At least, not yet.

With a group of 20 awful photos pulled from Google, I started training LoRAs with pretty terrible results, but just okay enough to develop a viable dataset with. After a lot of (re)training and grinding, I ended up with 100 unique, high quality images in total. With that new dataset, I started training variations of this ScytheXL LoRA, in an effort to find which combination produced the best LoRA, until I finally settled on the LoRA I've uploaded here.

However, this LoRA model is more of a proof of concept or prototype than a beta, one that is very much in its infancy. Therefore, YMMV. But I do want to thank everyone, in advance, for all the support and patience they afford me and my model!

I wish you all the very best and lots of AI fun!
