⚠️ Limitations (Flux‑Specific Notes)

Requires explicit mention of wood type for best texture (e.g., “walnut” not just “wood”).
Very complex multi‑figure intarsia scenes may lose fine veneer boundaries – keep subjects clear.
Flux Schnell users: reduce LoRA weight to 0.6 and keep prompts shorter.
Avoid mixing with “plastic”, “metal”, “glass” unless you want contrast.
The LoRA prefers natural lighting – artificial coloured lights can wash out wood tones.

💡 Prompting Tips for Best Results

Formula:

(Inlays and Shipwrights:1.2), [subject] made of [wood species], with [specific woodworking detail], in [setting/lighting], [atmosphere], [quality tags]

Example Good Prompt:

(Inlays and Shipwrights:1.2), a small walnut box with dovetail joints and a marquetry rose on the lid, polished shellac finish, sitting on a rustic oak table, warm morning light, sharp focus

Keywords that strengthen the style:

wood types: walnut, oak, mahogany, maple, cherry, teak, rosewood, ebony, holly, pine, cedar
techniques: marquetry, intarsia, parquetry, inlay, chip carving, turning, steam bending, clinker, carvel
tools & details: dovetail, mortise, tenon, treenail, plane, chisel, adze, drawknife, mallet, caulking iron

Overloading with too many wood types in one prompt (pick 2‑3 max).
Contradictory style words (“modern plastic wood”).
Extremely short prompts (e.g. “wooden boat” – lacks species and context).

📜 The Philosophy Behind V67

“Wood remembers the hand that shaped it. Every cut, every inlay, every plank tells a story of patience, skill, and respect for the material.”

This LoRA is a tribute to the craftsmen who transform raw timber into objects of beauty and function – from the shipwright who reads the grain of an oak trunk to the marquetry artist who composes landscapes from coloured veneers. It celebrates the honesty of visible joinery, the warmth of hand‑rubbed finishes, and the enduring romance of wooden ships and small handmade treasures.
