Description
Prompts must include trigger word for superior results: ATRX_MANUELA_ZIMAGE. With proper settings, produces decent images using the original checkpoint, but some of the newer trained checkpoints may be better. Can produce artistic nudes pretty well on its own, but can be further assisted when paired with a NSFW LoRA. With structured prompting, other characters described in the scene can somewhat retain their own distinctive features.
The dataset for training consisted of 50 high-quality photorealistic images AI-generated using Imagen 4 in Google Flow/Whisk, with references drawn from previously rendered images of the same character. Most images were touched-up using Photopea. SeedVR2 in ComfyUI was used to upscale images from 1024x1024 to 1280x1248. Most captioning was initially carried out in Qwen Chat, but then checked and tweaked through human curation.
No known reference to any real person was included in any part of the training.
