A simple merge of several PonyXL models in an attempt to match the style of my base SDXL merge, a semi-realistic 3D Disney cartoon style with sharp details and vivid colors. It isn't quite as good as I'd like it to be, and base resolution faces are pretty terrible, but I'm getting good results with hiresfix + adetailer/face detailer, which are highly recommended. A simple ComfyUI workflow including both was used for all the examples. (I'm currently trying to figure out how to add the ComfyUI workflow to the image details, I think Civitai used to do that automatically)Recommended settings:Resolution: 812x1216, 1024x1024, 768x1024 (for slight speed boost)Steps: 30-50Sampler: Euler a (any should be fine)Scheduler: Karras (AlignYourSteps scheduler used in examples)CFG: 5-7Hiresfix: 1.5x-2x using any upscale model (4x_foolhardy_Remacri used in examples)10-20 steps at .3-.45 denoise(examples use 1.5x, 12 steps, .4 denoise)Adetailer/face detailer is HIGHLY recommended.Please experiment further as I didn't change these settings much.Recommended starting positive prompt:"(score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up:1.1), score_6_up, score_5_up, score_4_up, (semi-realistic disney cartoon, volumetric lighting:1.1)"Recommended starting negative prompt:"score_4_up, score_5_up, asian"(The model has a bit of a bias towards Asian faces so adding it to the negative helps reduce that, but also reduces variability of the faces, lowering the weight can help with that a bit.)The models used for the merge are listed in the suggested resources section, please check them out as well.
Pos: (score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up:1.1), score_6_up, score_5_up, score_4_up, (semi-realistic disney cartoon, volumetric lighting:1.1),
