    New: 1.1 LoRA that adds additional material and the "startling stories" trigger.

    This model uses a trigger: sd-pulp, along with other optional triggers described below.

    Pulp is a high quality model trained on Public Domain, CC0 licensed images from pulp magazine covers of the 30s and 40s with titles like Startling Mystery, Dime Detective, Horror Stories, and Uncanny Tales. It excels at producing images with multiple characters, shocked expressions and action but can be coaxed into applying its visual styles to a wide range of subjects. You can swap or combine various magazine titles in your prompts to adjust color palettes and tone; the full set of titles for use in prompts (all lowercase):

    • dime mystery

    • horror stories

    • startling mystery

    • terror tales

    • thrilling mystery

    • uncanny tales

    • vice squad detective

    • spicy adventure

    • dime detective

    • detective short stories

    • startling stories (v1.1 Lora only)

    The source material sometimes lacks detail, but this can usually be corrected with negative prompts.

    Useful negative prompts: words, text, titles, signature, watermark, wordmark, magazine cover

    I feel like this desperately needs to be a LORA ;)

    To be fair there's already quite a few pulp loras. I like checkpoints of styles so you can use loras with them Multiple loras tend to not mix well together.
