    Hello everyone!

    I'm excited to introduce you to this wonderful vintage style LoRA. It specializes in creating old engraving styles reminiscent of the past eras. Personally, I've had great and flexible results using it.

    For even better outcomes, I recommend providing a specific year like 300 BCE, 120 CE, or 1500 CE as a positive prompt. This will help you achieve more accurate and nostalgic results.

    Remember to use the trigger word "vintageillustration" - it works and has become a staple in my prompt creations.

    Using refiner over it seems to remove the engraving effect on images so i tend to don't use it, or use it really lightly...

    Give it a try and let me know how you like the delightful vintage illustrations it produces! I hope you enjoy it!

    Does this model also have the illustration style of medieval manuscripts? (i.e. something like https://www.medievalists.net/2015/05/medieval-self-portraits/) I'd love to explore this for Ars Magica character portraits from the 13th century.

    Does this have HEMA manuals in the training data? Are they tagged with the moves on display?

    How do you misspell BC and AD? Embarrassing...

    Hello, thank you for this excellent LORA. I'm having difficulties to use this LORA in IMG2IMG comfy workflows, I often get big glitchs even after tuning the settings (denoise, cfg). Do you have any advice regarding IMG2IMG settings, or a workflow to share?
