Use light LoRA weights! I personally prefer to set it between 0.4 and 0.6. Set it to 0.8 to full-blown grotesque fantasy with muted tones, and to 0.2 for just a light touch! A weight of 1.0 is discouraged, but you do you.

My favourite sampler for this style is euler (simple). Try to increase the shift to produce even better results.

If deformed monsters start to pop up all over your images, take your pills and/or lower the weight!

Have fun and tell me what you think!
