Character LoRA - Maya v2.1

This LoRA was trained on Illustrious XL and features the character Maya with distinctive pink hair.

Trigger Words:

• maya - Primary character trigger

• pink_hair - Hair color/style trigger

• long_hair - Hair length control (Added in v1.1)

• ponytail - Optional hairstyle variation (Added in v1.1 - recommend "low ponytail" for original style)

Previous Updates

What's New in v2.0:

• Closest to original art style yet - Significant improvements over all v1.x versions

• Enhanced preprocessing - Completely revamped training data preprocessing pipeline

• Extended training cycles - Increased training steps with careful manual selection of optimal checkpoints

• Hand-picked model - Each release candidate was manually evaluated for quality and sample consistency

• Maintained compatibility - Tags and base model remain unchanged since v1.1 for seamless upgrading

What's New in v1.2:

• Extended training with more epochs for improved stability

• More consistent generation results

• All v1.1 features remain compatible

• The sample images may appear slightly worse than v1.1 because they are now generated using a much simpler workflow. For the best results, I recommend using waiNSFWIllustrious or other Illustrious models with sophisticated workflows like 2-pass generation.

What's New in v1.1:

• Changed base model to waiNSFWIllustrious_v140.safetensors

• Improved quality of training data

• Standard generation methods should work better now

• Art style now looks more like the original style

• Added new trigger word "long_hair"

• Optionally "ponytail" - if you prefer ponytail, recommend low ponytail to preserve original art style

Important Usage Notes:

• Due to the original training images having poor quality, this LoRA may not work well with standard generation methods

• Recommended workflow: Use the embedded ComfyUI workflow included in the sample images for best results

• Load the workflow directly into ComfyUI for optimal generation quality
