I present my attempt at a Illustrious character LoRA for Alistair Theirin from Dragon Age.<hr />V3 is my third version and attempt to fix his face and hair. I revised the training set for this one and the results are more consistent. I also managed to fix the 2nd outfit tags to not bleed together with the warden armor. LoRA strength recommendations<ul><li>Use LoRA strength 0.7-0.8 with about CFG 3-4.</li></ul>The tags for V3 are as follows:main tags<pre><code>daalistair, 1boy, mature male, goatee stubble</code></pre>outfit tags: outfit 1<pre><code>warden pauldrons, warden breastplate, warden chainmail, warden belt, warden tassets, warden gauntlets, black pants, warden boots</code></pre>outfit 2<pre><code>alternate pauldrons, alternate chestpiece, alternate bracers, fingerless gloves, leather belt, alternate chausses, alternate boots</code></pre>The settings I used for my generation testing were 3-4 CFG, 20 steps, DPM++ 2M SDE - Karras on Forge with an adetailer (specifically face_yolov8s).<hr />V2 is my second version and produces very nice results. I wanted his hair to look shorter and more consistent with how it was with his Origins look so I made tweaks to his training data. I also trained this one on different settings (same settings as V2 for Cullen). LoRA strength recommendations<ul><li>Use LoRA strength 0.7-0.8 with about CFG 3-5.</li></ul>The tags for V2 are as follows:main tags<pre><code>da_alistair, 1boy, mature male, crew cut, very short hair, brown eyes, stubble</code></pre>outfit tags<pre><code>warden pauldrons, warden breastplate, warden chainmail, warden belt, warden tassets, warden gauntlets, black pants, warden boots</code></pre>The settings I used for my generation testing were 3-5 CFG, 20 steps, DPM++ 2M SDE - Karras on Forge with an adetailer (specifically face_yolov8s).<hr />V1 is my initial attempt and produced very nice results. You may need to add helm or warden helmet to your negative prompt for armored generations if his face keeps getting covered. I didn't have this issue with Pony but it random in this case and didn't happen too often.
