Anima-Telescopa

Anima-TelescopaTelescopa is a full matrix LoKr (basically poor man finetuning) of Anima Base v1.0 by CircleStone Labs, trained using the LyCoRIS full matrix LoKr method (paper).This was my first attempt at fine-tuning an image model on a dataset above 10k samples. Alongside general practice, the run was also used to: Test whether a carefully hand-curated aesthetic dataset could improve Anima's background generation quality Compare full matrix LoKr training against a true full finetune on the same settingsCompared to other Anima fine-tunes such as Tdrussel's Aes B, Motimalu's KirazuriV4, duongve's AnimaYume, and the Silvermoon mixes,ect,.... Telescopa is perhaps a lil worse on fine detail, stability, and knowledge/style retention — but it shows slightly stronger background composition and detail than the base model and most contemporaries. For a first larger-scale training run, I'm happy with the result and want to release it anyway as a open source showcase and as a lesson/milestone for myself. This model is produced independently, as a hobbyist project, with no external funding. Visit https://civitai.red/models/2846170/anima-telescopa for the actual model introduction and further detail because PixAI importer is so ass, I dont want to manually edit description again. This model is released under the same license as the base model.See the base model for details of the CircleStone Labs Non-Commercial License.Built on NVIDIA Cosmos.
