New Project Announcement Azure Starfire

Hello everyone!
Following the conclusion of the Azure & Crimson mix series, I’m excited to announce the start of a brand new project: Azure Starfire.

This new model line represents a fresh beginning built from the ground up with a clean dataset, improved balance, and updated methods based on everything learned from previous versions

🧬 Model Focus

Azure & Crimson is a merged model built on a strong foundation of anime style generation, with a particular emphasis on character centric composition and minimal background detail. It delivers vibrant colors, sharp features, and versatile rendering, making it ideal for a variety of themes.

While the model excels in anime aesthetics, it is not recommended for semi-realistic or realistic styles.
