    ℹ️ PROMPT BOOK v2 (Download the PDF) or CHECK ONLINE (Excluded NSFW from this, separate book with NSFW coming later)

    ℹ️ IMGUR ALBUM - Fun experiment for everyone to try. Prompting w lyrics! Feed SD just with lyrics. Here is an example album - images generated with few lines from Iced Earth, metal band.

    ℹ️ What went into making of all the models

    QGO-10b / F222 / BasilticAbyssDream / Wonder / Refined / Clarity / HASDX / RPG / HARDBlend / Hunter 69 / Dreamshaper / Cyber Realistic / Deliberate / Elegance / Elysium / Galaxy 3 / Generic Female / Project AIO / LOFI / Realism Engine / rMad / Woop Photo / A to Zovya / WLOP / NED / Perfect Sketchbook / Dark Sushi / Epic Illustration / iCoMix / Comi Noir / Counterfeit / Meina / ReV Animated / Tri Phaze / EZ (Seems to be gone)

    There were a lot of merges in the process and its kind of hard to tell the exact recipe at this point. Big thanks to all the authors of the merges above for their amazing work.

    My workflow

    I run ✔️ hires fix with R-ESRGAN 4+ for photoreal / realistic outputs.

    I run ✔️ hires fix withR-ESRGAN 4+ Anime6B for anime / manga outputs.

    I run ✔️ hires fix with 4x-UltraSharp at times for various tasks.

    CFG scale / steps vary per model / desired output, so does the sampler. Experiment :)

    You can find many more upscalers here

    I mostly avoid using ❌ restore face.

    I rarely do in-painting. Matter of fact, none of the images I posted went through any in-painting.

    After up-scaling in SD, I usually upscale my output images further here - it's free, fast and does a decent job - check it out.

    Bro, I'm so confused by all the version and naming changes at this point...

    Well, beside anime / manga / fantasy which have their own style, diabolique v1 / v2 are the ones that lean towards realism. I need to tidy up things though

    Blackened15Apr 18, 2023

    yeah, using V2 is OUT in the title screw things up even more, since civitai uses the title to form filename, everything downloaded here will say diabolique v2 in the filename @MEOWBRO

    Why give a good model a dumb name. What you call a ship, that's how it sails.
