🍍 SuperMix is an Anime focused Text-to-Image diffuser model capable of bringing out semi-realistic tones through detailing, lighting, textures, and other aspects of the composition. At the same time, this merged model is very versatile with the amount of styling, forms, and mediums you can choose to generate with outputs through chosen parameters. SuperMix is great with:<ul><li>Portraits</li><li>Anime</li><li>Semi-Realism</li><li>Scenery</li><li>Concept Art</li><li>Detailed Textures</li><li>Detailed Backgrounds</li><li>Vehicles, Architecture, Food</li><li>&amp; More!</li></ul>This mix started out as a spontaneous combination of various anime focused models. I took note of some of the details the merge had excelled at - then decided to create a mix highlighting those aspects continuing from there. After some iterations and branch tests, I decided this mix was decent enough to share with others as is without going too far with variations.I still consider myself newer to generated art and such in general, so if you see anything to be corrected or to improve upon, let me know 👌I would love to see what people create with the outputs of this model, feel free to use the tag #SuperMix on various platforms if you decide to post anything! Note<pre><code>SuperMix1 is an older rough-merged model mixed at the end of 2022 from various models known at the time. As such, this model and merge-components are fairly dated and may be harder to manage at times with current webUI updates etc. There are many great models available now with similar styles and flexibility that may be easier to use depending on your style preference. If this model receives any future updates, any new version will be geared at ironing out any prevalent issues in this version, removing any license limitations, and finetuning to a better standard.</code></pre>💡 Alternate versions, model recipe(s), and more information can be found on the <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/Ocean3/SuperMix">Hugging Face page</a>.<hr /><h3 id="heading-8">General Use</h3>This model is fairly versatile when it comes to a general use configuration and parameters. In short, I would suggest starting simple and experiment with what works best for you and your prompt at the time. Perhaps try some older prompts and configurations, an example, or start from scratch and go from there. This model really shines with a good prompt. You may experience some messy anatomy/hands until you find a good configuration + prompt, you'll know when you do. Keep in mind this model is geared more toward portrait style generations. There are many different examples of various configurations used in the previews and example sections - feel free to explore your own styles. SuperMix can be a very powerful model capable of many different styles, don't be afraid to use this model(s) the way you find best. An additional img2img upscale at lower denoising values can do really well and really bring a clean polish to output images. Keep in mind you may lose some very fine detailing depending on your parameters, though you can also merge two upscales together for the best of both ranges.~20 steps, 7 scale, ~0.4 denoising, clip skip 1 or 2, is a good starting point This model has some issues with detail accuracy, however is primarily geared toward portrait styles. Keep in mind hands/anatomy may be a bit wild at times depending on your prompt and other parameter factors.<hr /><h3 id="heading-514">Prompts</h3>SuperMix can excel with both simple and complex prompt styles. Start simple and small, then expand from there. 👑 Prompts are king in my opinion when it comes to one of the largest factors in a generation. Be keen about what you're using and how you're using it; what may conflict with something else; and how everything plays together with other parameter factors. (ie sampler, steps, scale, clip skip, seed, lora, etc. Note: artist tokens can hold a lot of weight in outputs, use at your own discretion.Positive Prompts: Simple goes a long way as a starting point but you can really direct the model style-wise with some added structure. Try anything you find that works well with your other parameters. Here are a few starting points.<pre><code>(masterpiece:1.1), (highest quality:1.1), (HDR:1.0)</code></pre><pre><code>extreme quality, cg, detailed face+eyes, (colorful:0.8), &lt;content&gt;, masterpiece, 8k, tone mapping, hyper focus</code></pre>Negative Prompts: This model can do well with a simple negative prompt, a negative embedding(s), but can also do really well with some structure to the negative prompt as far as styling direction, undesired quality, etc. Keep in mind conflicting tokens with your positive prompt and otherwise and maybe not too too complex, but try anything that works!<pre><code>(bad quality:1.3), (worst quality:1.3)</code></pre><pre><code>EasyNegative, (bad_prompt_version2:0.8), (badhandv4:1.18), (bad quality:1.3), 
(worst quality:1.3), watermark, (blurry), (cropped), (nsfw:1.3), (cleavage:1.3)</code></pre>You can check the preview images for more examples.<h3 id="heading-515">Hires Fix</h3><ul><li>Hires Denoising: I tend to do a range between ~0.3-0.6, I haven't really tried much else so far though. Experiment to see what works best for your parameters and prompts at the time.</li><li>Hires Upscaler: Upscalers seem to produce slightly different results between themselves - though I find any of them seem to work. I'm not sure what is typically used, though I mainly use R-ESRGAN 4x+ Anime6B or 4x-UltraSharp. Use what you think is best as always.</li></ul><h3 id="heading-516">Sampling Steps</h3>I suggest starting with ~18-30 step values, you can go lower or higher and see what works well with your prompt, sampler and other parameters.<h3 id="heading-517">Samplers</h3>Most of my tests with this model were using samplers:<ul><li>Eular a</li><li>DPM++ 2M Karras</li><li>DPM++ SDE Karras</li><li>DDIM</li></ul>I also tried a bit of DPM++ 2S a Karras, and PLMS samplers. I am unsure on the rest. Each sampler has their own styling and play differently with your prompt and other parameters at the time. I suggest trying out what you typically use, then try out some of the others and see how they play with your other configurations and prompt. Do note that some samplers may make use of certain terms/tokens of your prompt and other parameters differently than others. You may find better results with one sampler and "prompt a", then better results with another sampler and "prompt b" etc.<h3 id="heading-518">Scale</h3>CFG Scale may largely be dependent on your prompt, sampler, etc. Though, I generally suggest starting at default 7 and adjusting from there -&gt; ~6.5-10 I have had good results with higher scales ~13-16 on samplers such as DDIM for example, depending on the prompt and other factors used. This is not to say a lower value does not work as well also. The same can be said for other samplers and value ranges. Experiment and see what works best for you and your prompt 👍<h3 id="heading-519">Clip Skip</h3><ul><li>Clip Skip 1 - great with most samplers, especially Euler a in my experience.</li><li>Clip Skip 2 - also great with most samplers, tends to be more 'literal' with various tokens in a prompt depending on sampler and other parameters.</li></ul>Both work great and will each produce different styles and results - this is part of the reason I didn't go with some of the other test model variations due to the imbalance of quality between the two clip skip variations. I suggest trying both or even together in the same generation with the built-in X/Y/Z plot script.You can always try higher as well, I have seen some good results with Clip Skip 3-6.<h3 id="heading-520">VAE</h3>Use any VAE you prefer. I typically use vae-ft-ema-560000-ema.<ul><li>"SuperMix_A.vae" (renamed SD vae-ft-ema-560000-ema.vae) Recommended - bright vivid/bold colors</li><li>"SuperMix_B.vae" (renamed kl-f8-anime2.vae, found on the <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/Ocean3/SuperMix">Hugging Face page</a>) Very Similar - different details at times</li><li>"SuperMix_C.vae" (renamed Anything_v3.vae, found on the <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/Ocean3/SuperMix">Hugging Face page</a>) Another option - moderate colors/saturation in comparison</li></ul> vae-ft-mse-840000-ema and <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/22354/clearvae">ClearVAE_V2.3</a> can also be good options. Note: model names containing "-bv" or "-bakedVAE" include VAE files baked-in making the use of these files no longer needed.<h3 id="heading-521">Upscaling</h3>A secondary img2img upscaling after generation can really bring out clarity in images and iron out details with this model. Keep in mind this can also soften some texturing detail depending on your settings. This is not needed of course, but can really sharpen up some generations. Use the settings or extension(s) that work best for you. I generally use the built in SD upscale script with:<ul><li>the same base model</li><li>the same or similar prompt</li><li>DPM++ SDE Karras sampler</li><li>20 sampling steps</li><li>7 cfg scale</li><li>a low denoising strength ~0.08-0.3</li><li>a random seed, -1</li><li>tile overlap ~176-208</li><li>scale factor x2</li><li>upscaler R-ESRGAN 4x+ Anime6B or 4x-UltraSharp</li><li>loRa usually turned off</li></ul><h3 id="heading-522">ENSD &amp; Eta</h3>I've only used the webUI defaults:<ul><li>0 Eta noise seed delta</li><li>0 Eta for DDIM (noise multiplier)</li><li>1 Eta for ancestral samplers (noise multiplier)</li></ul><h3 id="heading-523">Other Settings</h3>For the example images I used -&gt; settings/compatibility/use old karras scheduler sigmas (0.1 to 10) compatability setting which effects karras samplers. This is completely optional and shouldn't be needed. This setting better replicates some of the older webUI versions. I have not personally tested enough with this setting turned off on the newer webUI versions.Disclaimer<pre><code>This model(s) may output NSFW content unintentionally depending on parameters used.

SuperMix

Release - v1.0An older versatile anime focused model from the end of 2022 rough-merged based on various available models at the time. This model is capable of bringing out semi-realistic tones through detailing, lighting, textures, and other aspects of the composition. You can find a Baked VAE (bv) and additional versions along with more information and recipe on the <a rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/Ocean3/SuperMix">Hugging Face page</a>. Note: this version is not finetuned to maximum detail accuracy. Overall this version/model might have performed a bit better on older software versions that it was initially mixed on - though can still very much do amazingly. This version does really well with an additional img2img upscale at lower denoising values as well.
