FAQ

I'm using several character LoRAs—both pony-style and Illustrious-style—but the hand issues are severe in all of them. I’ve even downloaded specialized hand and error-fixing LoRAs, but they still have problems. I love this art style deeply; otherwise, I wouldn’t be persistently struggling with this issue. I hope the developer can address some of these hand-related problems in the next version.
v3
v3 has pretty good hands for a Pony model on it's own but they get really bad with character LORAs. Do you have the same issue with Alma Experimentals r3.1? https://civitai.com/models/1385351/alma-experimentals-pdxl It has a very similar style and seems to handle character LORAs better but has worse hands as a baseline so keep using a hand fixing LORA with it.
I do want to make an Illustrious model with similar style that should have better hands both with and without character LORAs, so follow if you want a notification when that comes out :)
