Artists4Semireal

This upload features two specialized wildcard selections, each comprising approximately 100 carefully curated artists. The first wildcard is dedicated to supporting and enhancing realistic art styles, while the second caters specifically to a cute art style. Both collections have been tested for compatibility with prominent Illustirous Checkpoints and the TIPO LLM, as well as semi-realistic checkpoints such as my own IlluDream Hentai, ensuring broad usability and artistic coherence.

Pleas give me feedback to other Styles you like and which Artists are a must have to add. The sheer number of listed artist is overwhelming and before all that gernerative AI Stuff I did not even know one of them. So I just randomly generated Images with i.e. IlluDream Hentai or Plantmilk Walnut and a list of all Artists that might be supported. Then I manually added the Artists which had an impact, both on the Illustrious model and the TIPO integration.

Wildcard Descriptions

• Realistic Style Wildcard (IL_Artists_4RL):
  This selection focuses on artists whose work embodies (semi-) realism, lifelike textures, precise anatomy, and nuanced lighting. It is ideal for projects demanding authenticity and naturalism, suitable for portraits, landscapes, and detailed conceptual art. Using this wildcard injects a wide range of realistic artistic influences, which will push semi-realistic Checkpoints towards more "realism".

• Cute Style Wildcard (IL_Artists_4CT):
  The cute artstyle wildcard features artists known for their endearing, playful, and often stylized depictions—featuring soft colors, exaggerated expressions, and appealing character designs. This wildcard is perfect for generating artwork with a charming, lighthearted mood, including anime-inspired and cartoonish imagery.

Usage in ComfyUI and Automatic1111

To use these wildcards effectively:

ComfyUI:

• Place the wildcard text files in your Wildcards directory (depends on the node you use).

• Use the native wildcard syntax in your prompt strings, e.g., __IL_Artists_4RL__.

• The wildcards will randomly select an artist from the corresponding list each time the prompt generates a new image, adding diversity and uniqueness.

• For enhanced control, combine wildcards using dynamic prompt syntax like {1-2$$__IL_Artists_4RL__|__IL_Artists_4CT__}, which picks between one or two artists from either wildcard, producing hybrid styles.

• Seed control will ensure reproducibility if desired.

• Use nodes like Easy Wildcards for multiline prompts and complex wildcard integration.

Automatic1111:

• Place wildcard .txt files in the stable-diffusion-webui/extensions/sd-dynamic-prompts/wildcards/ folder.

• Include wildcards in prompts using the double underscore syntax, e.g., __IL_Artists_4RL__ or __IL_Artists_4CT__.

• Use the Dynamic Prompts extension to leverage nested wildcards, weighted choices, or multi-select options.

• Combine wildcards for novel stylistic fusions with syntax like {2$$__IL_Artists_4RL__|__IL_Artists_4CT__}.
