🎨 Mood & Shading LoRA

I made this LoRA because one of my style LoRAs wasn’t capturing shading or atmosphere correctly, everything looked too flat.
This LoRA focuses on adding strong mood lighting and comic-style shading, inspired by the dark, dramatic look of horror comics from the 2010s.


✨ Features

  • Adds rich shading and mood lighting to characters and scenes.

  • Comes with six moods you can mix and match:
    warmgoldxl1, dayneutralxl1, coldwarmxl1, greenxl1, warmnightxl1, coldnightxl1

  • Works standalone or stacked with other style LoRAs without washing out colors.


🎚 Recommended Weights

  • Range: 0.2 – 1.15

  • Sweet Spot: 0.65 – 0.75 → best balance of depth and detail

  • Use lower weights for subtle shading, higher for dramatic effects


💡 Tips

  • If you see blurry eyes at higher weights, run ADetailer or Hires.fix, it cleans them right up.

  • Mood combos work great! Try warmgoldxl1 + coldnightxl1 or greenxl1 + warmnightxl1 for unique tones.

  • Works for portraits, pin-ups, outdoor scenes, fantasy, sci-fi, or horror themes.


📚 Training Info

  • Dataset Size: ~288 images

  • Focused on cleanly colored horror comics with a variety of lighting setups

  • Trained for color depth and atmosphere, not characters, but it picked up a little bit of comic-style flair along the way.


⚠️ Known Limitations

  • At very high weights (>1.0), some images may oversaturate or soften facial details.

  • Backgrounds may subtly inherit lighting elements from the dataset (e.g. framed portraits, eerie backdrops).
