    Hi all!

    SDXL_Niji_Seven is available!

    I have incredible results with my LoRa model SDXL_Niji_V6_DLC_LoRa_ v2 at strength 0.5!

    https://civarchive.com/models/541460?modelVersionId=601994

    I haven't tested v4 yet

    What's new?

    -This version is very different because it is based on NijiV6 To be more precise, around 1000 images from NijiV5 and 1600 from v6 (compared to a total of 1300 images in v6).

    -I chose not to use the "expressive" style of NijiV5 this time. But maybe I will add it in a 7.5 version in the future.

    -There is no longer a trigger word

    -Version 6 is very different so I still recommend it.

    Some tips for use:

    -Don't hesitate to play with things like: realistic, hyper realistic, anime studio, digital artwork, illustration...

    -Clip skip -2 or -3 is recommended (-3 better overall)

    -A minimum of 26 steps

    -cfg scale: between 3.5 and 6

    -Sampling method: DPMPP_SDE Karras (recommended, best quality), Euler_Ancestral simple (2nd best), DPMPP_2M_SDE Karras or ddim simple (average quality for both).

    Have fun ! 😊

    Description

    A brand new dataset of more than 1200 images. A Keyword “NijiEX style”
    Two Niji training merge to balance style and quality.

    Wow NijiV6, exciting! Finally, some good news to cheer me up after the SD3 debacle 😎🙏👍

    Very excited to hear that a Cascade version is coming too.

    Yes. I've had my 3090 for 3 or 4 months, but it took me a while to achieve something satisfactory. I also spent a lot of time on Stable Cascade which is truly incredible for training!

    NowhereManGoJun 18, 2024

    @Stan_Katayama Better late than never. Welcome back, and I am sure V6 is worth the wait 🙏👍😎

    @Stan_Katayama Unfortunately, I don't have access to NijiV6 at the moment (my local setup is down), so I am waiting for V6 to show up on seaart.ai or tensor.ai 😅.

    If not, I hope I'll be able to test out NijiV6 over the weekend 🙏

    @NowhereManGo I checked "Use on Civitai generation service" Normally you should be able to generate images on Civitai with it. It does not work?

    NowhereManGoJun 19, 2024· 1 reaction

    @Stan_Katayama Unfortunately, since Civitai switch from OctoML to their current GPU providers, many of the less popular models are no longer runnable on their generator.

    When NijiV6 becomes more popular (via Civitai's model ranking system) it may become runnable, but that is not the case at the moment.

    @Stan_Katayama Thank you Stan, this is a pleasant surprise 🙏. Just generated my first two NijiV6 images and they came out great 👍❤: https://civitai.com/posts/3682742

    @Stan_Katayama I am both honored, and a bit embarrassed by your buzz, because I am supposed to be the one giving you the buzz 😅

    Niji is the first SDXL fine-tune that I truly fell in love with, because it was a childhood dream come true: to be able to create my own anime/manga like images (I don't have enough talent and training for that).

    With NijiV6, this dream has now become even sweeter 😎

    @NowhereManGo If you want to see some images of my next model. Check it out on my Insta or my Twitter. I'll post more later!

    @Stan_Katayama thank you, I'll definite check them out 🙏👍. I assume this is the Cascade version?

    @NowhereManGo No, it's a model that will do both anime style and fantasy comic style. But it will be on SDXL

    NowhereManGoJun 24, 2024

    @Stan_Katayama I see. I look forward to its release then 👍🙏

    “NijiEX style” is for the “expressive style” of Niji5. But there are also images from Niji6 in the dataset. Maybe in the future I will make an exclusively Niji6 model.

    The key word "NijiEX style" gives a more pronounced style. There are some indications of settings in the description. Otherwise try things, have fun

    NowhereManGoJun 21, 2024· 1 reaction

    Like Stan said, no need for (masterpiece) or score_9, score_8, "best quality", etc. Look at the sample image to get a feel for what is needed.

    But here is an explanation for why (masterpiece) score_9, score_8 are needed for some models.

    Model such as Pony have a very large training image set, and some of those image are of poor quality. The reason these poor quality images are included is that for some characters or poses, only poor quality images exists. But a poor render is better than no render, so they are included.

    But when you try to generate a "high quality" images that does not need those characters or poses, it is better to "exclude" them. So you tell the A.I. to only "include" images that have "score_9" or "masterpiece" in their captions.

    Niji V6, on the other hand, is presumably trained only with high quality images generated using Midjourney. So it is already "biased" toward "high quality", so there is no need for such words in the prompt.

    @NowhereManGo I think that on this version, we can put: best quality, masterpiece... :)

    @Stan_Katayama Yes, I guess "best quality, masterpiece..." doesn't hurt either 😁

    I can't say when yet. I would really like to bring as many people to Cascade as possible because I don't understand its lack of success! But it shouldn't take very long. Actually, I already have a personal version. But it is not accomplished enough.

    Fantastic checkpoint, my only complaint is on approximately every 10th generation, male models would get one very large nipple which tend to ruin a lot of great generations. Hope it'd get fixed on the next version. Thank you for your hard work. :)

    Thank you for this feedback. I am very far from being a professional, I do not have a pro GPU, nor a multi GPU. I probably still make mistakes, but English is not my native language. I'm probably missing some things. I don't promise anything for the next one, but I'll do my best 😅

    NowhereManGoJun 25, 2024

    Valid criticism, but to be fair, flaws in A.I. image generated images are almost unavoidable with today's technology 😅.

    That is why people still inpaint so much.

    Good thing I am not really into nipples 😂

    @NowhereManGo I don't particularly do nudes either. And then it's a Niji model and Niji is censored. So I can't change that.

    NowhereManGoJun 26, 2024

    @Stan_Katayama Yes, that's a good point. So most likely these weird male nipples are coming from SDXL base itself rather than the additional training Niji V6 has done (base SDXL itself produces bad nipple, IIRC).

    The Midjourney images you've used probably has very few nipples (I know MJ shuns female nipple, but does MJ even produce male nipples? 😅), so very unlikely that the fine-tuning introduced them.

    @NowhereManGo We are talking about male nipples here. What Cronoe does is magnificent. A bit of a Renaissance style.
    In short, it is possible that my model is indeed a problem at this level.
    The problem also comes from the fact that I use a lot of "expressive style" images from niji5 and that it makes a lot of mistakes

    CronoeJun 26, 2024· 2 reactions

    @Stan_Katayama @NowhereManGo  I ran a test on just this checkpoint and found the same relic on some side view poses, but it's much rarer. I also found that the Jean Delville style LORA I was using forces the models to face sideway more often, thus giving me a lot more of the issue. It may as well be the main attributor to this problem. Overall, this is not a big complaint, just something I just want to bring to attention. Thanks again for making this checkpoint, have a nice day.

    diaserikcg114Jul 24, 2024

    It would be interesting to know if it is with or without lora. Lora tends to create aberrations and the more you use, the more unexpected results you get.

    I'm not sure I understand?! You must read the instructions in description.

    NobodyButMeowJul 7, 2024· 2 reactions

    Look at the images people have posted, find a style you like, then look at the prompt. For example, use "Anime Artwork", "NijiEX style illustration", "style by Masamune Shirow", etc.

    I have this problem:

    RuntimeWarning: invalid value encountered in cast

    img = Image.fromarray(np.clip(i, 0, 255).astype(np.uint8))

    It produces a black image for me during generation I see that the image is "forming", then before completing it becomes completely black

    I'm using the model's VAE.

    Trying a different VAE, I get the image but it's all distorted by pixels and artifacts

    Do you have any suggestions on how I could resolve this?

    Sorry,
    I didn't see the message.
    We are rather dealing with a software problem here. And I can't really help you on this point.
    What I do in these cases is I copy/paste the error message into Google.
    There is always someone who had the same problem.
