    Designed to produce sketchy drawings or realistic comics drawing in American/European style focused on old school hand-inked/hand-coloured, but can also be used for manga or just drawing. By default the model is very sketchy, this is intended to give a natural appearance to the lines. So there are a lot of artifacts. If you want clear lines, you will need to use a suitable negative prompt. here is minimal negative for clean lines:

    ((photo, 3D)), frame, drawing artifact, sketch, poorly drawn

    -Can produce NSFW
    -no need VAE
    -Lower the CFG Scale for more natural softer render (depends of prompt and negative prompt) . Good with negative embeddings like BadDream.
    -clip skip 2 seems a good compromise but it's quite subjective.
    
    Remains fairly consistent in "high resolution" like 1024x768, without hi-res fix.
    
    If the rendering tends to photography, emphasize with terms like "illustration", "comic", "drawing" etc.
    Add "realistic" or "photorealistic" if it tends to be too toony.
    
    Don't hesitate to comment, it's my first upload here, I spent several days on it, so a little feedback is always nice^^

    This is a beautiful model. I'm an illustrator who loves AI as a tool for inclusion in my workflow. Most of my effort has been in 1mg2img. Getting a model or LORA to look like my finished work is almost a reality. I'm going to be testing this model for a while to see how well it works with my home brewed LORAs. Thanks.

    This is awesome!, Ive used this in combination with ip adapter face to get consistent characters and it works amazing.

    Hoping for SDXL version pls!

    This is pretty fantastic but does not work well for male anatomy. I am really enjoying the various capacities it has and how it works with LORA's I have but the lack of handling male anatomy is limiting.

    That being said, it appears that you spent far more time training this to focus on women; far more than men. Even when prompts like "penis" and "testicles" are present, they do not actually appear in the generation. Often with other checkpoints, just prompting with "penis" often has the result of a rather mutant sized penis, which is hilarious but at least the checkpoint is acknowledging the prompt. This one however does not.

    Out of about 2,000 generations since I downloaded this, I've only successfully gotten 5 generations that showed anything remotely looking like male genitalia. Even when prompted to generate a male, it creates a man with a nullified groin, in clothing and nude. If this wasn't an issue, I'd say you've created possibly one of the best Comic styles I've found so far. Could you address this, or create another that understood male genitals and proper prompting? Otherwise all I'm getting is men with a cleft groin and no genitals.

    It's not bad, but it's pretty rigid, and it doesn't follow instructions well in prompts. It seems to have a lot of things baked in. It mimics style well, but if it had more flexibility it would be great.

    This is honestly a hidden gem amongst the sea of anime garbage on this site . This thing does incredible img2img work . Been using it as style conversion for my own artwork .

    Absolutely wonderful. I'm a beginner, and this has become, easily, my favorite model to work from. Thank you!

    This model, in my opinion, is a completely underestimated brilliant masterpiece! A stunning mix of semi-realism and excellent academic pencil drawing in comic style. I'm really crazy about this hand-drawn, unsaturated comic style of this model, and the excellent responsiveness gives a variety of expressive pictures, where almost everything that I prescribed in prompt is actually displayed, and at the same time with excellent correct anatomy. It's incredible! 10/10!
