This Lora is trained on mostly real images and a few anime/illustration images (~99% to ~1% ratio) to keep it flexible enough to still generate in anime style.
Triggers (as of 3.3):
asian, asian_japanese, asian_chinese, asian_korean, european, european_irish, european_french, european_german, european_italian, african, african_east, african_west, latina, thai, arab, indian, iranian, native_american, polynesianNote: no need to use generalized and specific triggers together (asian and asian_chinese for example)
The lora can be used without triggers as a style lora (example image with tifa, aerith and yuffie in a group hug)Currently the lora supports the following races & ethnicities:
E.Asian (Japanese / Korean / Chinese)
European (General European / Irish / french / german / italian)
African (General african / east / west)
Latina
Thai
Indian
Iranian
Arab
Indigenous American (as of v3.3. Native American in older versions)
Polynesian
The Above list is for version 3.3
Please refer to the list of triggers for the supported tags for older versions
For version 3.3 (both Pony and Illustrious), I decided to try frequency-based tagging instead of the common "prune anything you want the model to generate".
So basically any tag that appears with less than 20% frequency gets pruned, as well as anything above 95% and anything that's insignificant enough to be considered as 'noise' such as 'mole', 'mole on breast', mole on face', etc.
It does make the model slightly less flexible, so possibly pruning under 10/15% could be better.Description
Almost same as 2.75 Illustrious but trained on pony v6

@SBlaidd Hi, you did a great job! I have a question. In the previous version of Illustrious (2.35), we had visible metadata and prompts recommended for the different ethnicities. When I downloaded Illustrious version 2.75, I don't see any metadata anymore, could you share in the Lora post the recommended prompts to be able to invoke the ethnicities you have included?
Thank you!
As for the metadata, Kohya_ss seems to have stopped working for me so I trained 2.75 on OneTrainer and could not find how/where to add the metadata tags.
I'll add them to the description in a sec.
can you add more types of African? such as African American, west, east, etc
Unlikely at the moment as finding good images of African people is extremely hard ( as in not weirdly cropped / blurry / water-marked / with weird repeating patterns that confuse the model / etc)
I'll try of course, it really depends on the images I can find
Wish I could rank this higher than just a thumbs up. The best lora I've found so far for making non generic looking realistic or semi realistic characters.
If you plan to add more ethnicities, I would love to see Polynesian added
Thank you!
I'll look into Polynesian, I'll add it if I find enough images.
Thank you very much for this model. If you could, I would really like it if you could add Persian. Although you probably need a different trigger word (e.g. Iranian) since Persian tends to summon cats and you might end up fighting against that.
