Bara Sketch (male anime) [Anima]

Hi, this is an Anima-style LoRA, designed to enhance guys into massive hunks, in an anime/graphic novel fusion style. The LoRa leans more towards guys/masculine subjects, but it's possible to create fem subject.

For those who are new to Anima models, the prompting is pretty similar to Illustrious XL and NoobAI models. It also primarily uses Danbooru and Gelbooru-style tags. Artist style tags work similarly to ILXL/NAI models, but you have to add @ in front of the artist name. So instead of dizdoodz, it has to be @dizdoodz. Character tags work the same way with ILXL/NAI.

Update

V.1.0

It's a bit different from the beta, but that's mainly because I was shooting in the dark with that version, and it was always intended as a test, a proof of concept. This version is cleaner and doesn't have a tendency to oversaturate the image when unprompted.

Mileage will vary depending on the Checkpoint, and adjust the weight where needed

If you liked it, consider supporting me by generating images and posting them or donating buzz; it would help me create more.

Tips and Recommended Usage

Feel free to experiment with different styles, character types, prompts, and LoRAs. Results may vary depending on your workflow and settings.

To use it, you need VAE and CLIP; recommended these:

VAE CLIP

Unless you're using Civitai's generator, you'll need either ComfyUI or ForgeNeo to run it. Check the official Anima model page [HF] for the required text encoder and VAE file that's necessary to run it.

Positive Prompt:

masterpiece, best quality, amazing, score_9, score_8,score_7, very aesthetic, extremely detailed, cinematic,

Negative Prompt:

worst quality, low quality, score_1, score_2, score_3, artist name, blurry, jpeg artifacts, lowres, censor, bad anatomy, watermark, artist name

Good Setting:

CFG: 4 / 6
Steps: 30 / 40
Sampler: Er_sde / Euler A
Scheduler: Simple
Layout: same that SDXL
Upscaler: R-ESRGAN 4x+ Anime6B
Hires fix: upscale - 1.5x

           denoising - 3.5 - 4

(OLD)

Beta.v.1.0.obsolete

This is a test LoRA to see what Anima can do.

Do be careful, I wouldn't call myself super good at making LoRa, especially an Anima one, so this LoRa may be unoptimized. Please be careful with the weights

I recommend using at 1 strength and at 1024px using a mix of captioning and natural text prompting

THIS IS ANIMA, NOT ILLUSTRIOUS OR NOOBAI!

It is a different model, and it won't work on those checkpoints/models!
