Excelsia TBFE (Crimson Style)

Excelsia from TBFE in Crimson Style

I’m a bit late with this release, but I didn’t want to leave today without posting anything, so I’m publishing it now and I’ll try to be more punctual in the future.

Looking at the character’s name, you might wonder: who is this? Excelsia is a superheroine from an adult film production series called The Battle For Earth. I spent quite a bit of time working on her because I wanted to adapt this character who has been portrayed by multiple actresses into Crimson Sensei’s style.

There are two fairly important issues with this model:

• The first is the stiffness of some poses, caused by a dataset that isn’t very diverse.

• The second is lighting, specifically how light is handled in her source images—similar to the issue Lily has.

I’ll try to improve these problems in the future.

You might also wonder why I decided to publish a character like this. The answer is that I’d like Excelsia to be the first in a small series of releases that would go alongside updates to older models and the release of characters from Crimson Yuomatainsen X (though I’m in no rush to adapt all of its exclusive characters).

I want to mention that this is a small project idea I came up with recently, and I’m not sure how many more characters like this I’ll publish. With my current setup, generating images takes quite a bit of time, and there are many image-generation tools and features I can’t fully use due to my modest hardware.

If you made it this far, thank you for taking the time to read all of this.

And now, as always: what do you think about this character? Do you like her, or do you think she doesn’t work very well? Let me know in the comments!
