This is an early experimental project which is also one of my first 3 loras made on June 2024, trained with 53 images with ratio of 1024 x 1024, featuring realistic drawing, minimal flat animation and sharpie illustration. After three months of iterations, it developed into various versions with additional realistic painting and photo realistic style with around 300 images. After 29 lora of experimentations I come back to this original lora and think about starting all over again.
? Useful Tips:
-
Make sure you are using correct base model, a pony lora won't work consistently on SDXL /SDXL illustrative
-
All Civitai showcase images are generated with A1111 backend. Remove all tags weight values in prompt if you are using ComfyUI, ignore other settings like CFG, steps.
-
As the lora name tells, the source images are selected for pastel and flat styles. To achieve this you need additional tags like "anime, pastels drawing, flat drawing" to emphasise the effect (this does not apply to Version 2). But I usually use it as a character lora as they are looking good.
-
There's no universal prompt /lora weight for every generation. If you're using anime style /character lora with realistic checkpoint, starting with a lower lora weight like 0.7. Ignore the lora weight in sample images, due to a Civitai bug, image generated online will display lora weight of 1 regardless the actual value.
-
For close-up portrait, start steps value of 22; for full body shot or couple shot, start steps value of 34.
-
The training files are mostly focus on solo character, which means if you intent to generate a image with couple, you might get unexpected result. To fix this you need to use an additional lora trained with multiple people (like ExpressiveH) or a pose lora. A good multiple people lora should contain as many poses as it can with couple, threesome or a group of people and it is definitely a tough job.
-
This lora will rely on negative prompts to fix hands, eyes, and accessories, check my showcase images for reference.
?️ Changes in Version V2:
1) Removed source images of sharpie illustration style to improve eye drawing quality.
2) Increased training source resolution.
3) Reduced training steps down to 1000.
