ABOUT
A retraining of the Vee Ebony model with a larger base image pool and without any sensitive tags.
Very good at generating realistic 'black' features and complexions, as well as Type 3 and Type 4 (wavy, curly, poofy, frizzy, 'knotty') hair including cornrows, braids, dreadlocks, and afros.
USAGE
WEIGHT
Works best when used with a more realistic model with a weight between 0.3 - 0.9. More 'anime' models may require heigher weights to get black/ebony features. Weights at 0.8 or above may require FaceFix.
METHOD
Works best with DPM++ 2M Karras (not SDE) and DDIM.
Can also work with Euler.
MODELS
Works with realistic models (from 'best' to 'decent'); Dreamboat, Dreamshaper V8.0, DarkPhoenix 3d Real, Paragon V1.0, Pixai Real V4.0, EpiCRealism V5, and Real Dream.
Works with anime models (from 'good' to 'decent'); Moonbeam, SeaSideMix, Midsummer, h4_JellyBean-v1, and Daydream. DreamShaper 6.0 (baked VAE) also results in a more anime looking model.
LORA
See comments for compatible LoRA.
Note that both the Ebony Woman LoRA and the partnered LoRA used a Weight of 0.7, with the Dreamboat Model and the DDIM Method.
