Electrum Cinnamon
A new year and a new model.
I did a number of test with this model and wrote down what I found. If you want a quick look the article is here: Sexiam - Electrum Cinnamon Merge Test
Pros:
Electrum Cinnamon is a little different from my other models in that it pushes more toward realism in textures, anatomy, and lighting. Skin has a nice matte finish, free of the usual glassy shine you often see in generations. Clothing, surfaces, and materials all have realistic microtextures. Overall, it's a solid stylized photorealistic merge with great detail.
Cons:
Electrum Cinnamon doesn't have quite the same range of faces as some of my other models. That's a sign of slight overfitting from using certain lighting and realistic LoRAs during the merge process. Girls often end up with similar faces unless you prompt for more specific details.
The model also really likes close-ups and cowboy shots. An easy way to work around these limitations is to adjust your prompt weights—something like (full body:1.2) will reliably force it to zoom out.
There's also a subtle earth-tone tint to most images, which comes from the merging process. You can counter that by adding simple [color] background. For example, simple blue background will give the whole image a cooler blue color scheme, especially if you've already prompted details about the background and environment. If you haven't described the environment, it'll just give you a solid color backdrop.
