Nemes Headdress (Egyptian Stylings)

This LoRA was created to generate the traditional Nemes (the striped headpiece of Ancient Egyptian royalty), which is often missing or inaccurate in most base models. It was trained on various references, including museum sculptures and historical recreations.

How to Use

• Main Trigger: nemes_headdress (or nemes headdress).

• Key Ornaments: Use cobra and vulture to add forehead details.

• Weights for Flexibility (0.6 - 0.8): Recommended if you want to change materials (like silk) or apply the style to other clothing.

• Weights for Accuracy (0.9 - 1.0): Best for maximum structural accuracy and historical/statue looks.

Tips for Best Results

• Material Control: If the headdress looks too much like stone, try adding glossy silk or fabric texture to your prompt.

• Controlling Ornaments: Because the training data often linked the headdress and ornaments, it can be hard to remove them completely. To get a "clean" look, put (cobra, vulture, snake, bird, 2snake:1.3) in your negative prompt.

• Color Changes: To move away from traditional blue/gold, describe the colors specifically (e.g., red and white striped) and lower the LoRA weight to around 0.6.

• Creative Use: You can apply the pattern to other items using prompts like: nemes_headdress style cloak, (blue and golden striped cloak).

Technical Notes

• Trained on: NoobAI-XL (NAI-XL) V-Pred 0.5.

• Tested on: CyberIllustrious, WAI-illustrious-SDXL, and other Illustrious-based models.

• Known Issues: Ornaments can appear large in close-ups. It also does a great job with sculpture-style images if prompted!
