hey guys, ☺ as u know I rlly love comic-anime-hybrid based checkpoints and digital art rendering with a touch of 3D on its way to semirealism. So I've thought it would be time to test Illustrious. This is how I wanna present to u ~ Illustrij ~ my first merged Illustrious checkpoint :)

For showcase images I have used Euler a, 30 steps, CFG 7 and Hires x 1,5.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~

about v5 hey guys, ☺

the gap between v4 and v5 was only a few days ago, but I've been "tinkering around" a bit and didn't want to keep it from you.

Trying to work on getting the quality closer to hires without hires - but there are still a few steps to go ^^ For people who have good hardware and can generally use a lot of Loras etc. at the same time the difference might not be that big, but I feel for the people who have small graphics cards :I The quality isn't perfect, but I've been working on it a bit ~ soft filling, clean renderings ~ the plan was to create an own style, subtly painted ~ anime-based, but still kissed by reality.

I hope you like the merge and I'm really looking forward to your results ♥ Belonging to the style u prefer u can switch the promptings 4 sure by ur own taste. In general, I mostly use "masterpiece,best quality,amazing quality,very aesthetic,absurdres,newest,detailed eyes" for general quality prompting, and besides depending on whether I want more anime or anime semi 3D touched I am writing "A professional,high-quality,hyper-realistic portrait of a woman, 3D" for the semianime 3D version and "A professional,high-quality portrait of a woman" for anime e.g. or as a conclusion for semi-anime:

"masterpiece, best quality, high resolution, very aesthetic, absurdres, newest, professional, high-quality, hyper-realistic, portrait of a woman, looking at viewer, detailed eyes, realistic body,"

and neg.:

"(lowres:1.2), (worst quality:1.4), (low quality:1.4), (bad anatomy:1.4), multiple views, jpeg artifacts, artist name, censored, young, 2D"

Sometimes I either leave out the negatives completely or write, for example, "lowres, worst "aesthetic, bad quality, worst quality, bad anatomy, sketch, jpeg artifacts, ugly, young, soft rendering, face marks"

depending on whether I use Euler or Euler a as sampler ^^

Usually I structure my prompts based on this:

subject description: who or what can be seen? (what does she/it look like? hair, eyes, clothing, description of the scene),

light and shadow description,

which angle, perspective, motion? quality

and

detailed description

or the quality at the very beginning and then the rest of the structure :)

If u're tasty for more? Here is a lil insight into the prompt structure: https://civitai.com/articles/10509/il-portreij-step-by-step
