    Description:

    A rich, high-gloss render. Everything gets shiny highlights, saturated colour and dense detail, and backgrounds turn into warm, ornate interiors. It looks like heavily rendered gacha or splash art.

    Known quirk: it can duplicate characters in some compositions (one preview came out with three copies of the same girl). Lower the strength or prompt solo firmly if that happens.

    This isn't a trained LoRA. No images were used to make it. It comes from steering neurons inside the base model:

    • I mapped the UNet's feed-forward neurons into groups. This file is four groups of about 1,000 neurons each, across four layers: two pushed up and two pushed down, mixed by a random combination search.

    • The LoRA stores that push as a bias change, which is why the file is only about 23 KB.

    How to use

    • No trigger word. Just load the LoRA; it acts on the model only, not the text encoder.

    • Strength 1 is the look in the previews. The effect scales linearly with strength: lower it for a lighter touch; negative values push the other way.

    • It stacks with other LoRAs.

    • Preview settings: 768×1024, 20 steps, CFG 4.5, DPM++ 2M Karras.

    Compatibility

    • Made and tested in ComfyUI (Load LoRA / LoraLoaderModelOnly) on prefectIllustriousXL v4.0.

    • Other UIs: the file holds only bias changes, which some UIs (A1111 / Forge) may not load. If nothing changes, that's why.

    • Other Illustrious checkpoints: untested, but they share the base, so it may carry over.
