Illustrious version:

Triple model merge. It's a first merge attempt, but it came out alright I'd say. Understands Danbooru and e621 tags.

It's an EPS model but it seems to work fine without EPS sampling, but I'd still recommend you use the correct settings for whichever tool you use. (ComfyUI/A1111/etc.)

I do not use A1111, but for ComfyUI you have to use the node ModelSamplingDiscrete or an equivalent custom node and set it to EPS sampling.

Use Euler A sampler, ~25-40 steps and ~4-8 guidance scale (CFG).

Positive Illustrious prompts:

(subject, {1boy/1girl/2boys/2girls/etc.}, artist/style).

Describe image with natural language. {A portrait of ...}.

(tags, quality tags).

Negative Illustrious prompts:

bad quality, worst quality, worst detail, sketch, censor.

Pony version:

Test model, I wanted to see if merging two of my favorite models would increase prompt adherence while still keeping its imagination.

It has a bit of a watermark problem, but they don't seem to be too intrusive and are usually easily fixed with a bit of inpainting.

Positive Pony prompts:

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, rating_tag, BREAK

Negative Pony prompts:

score_6, score_5, score_4, etc.

But please experiment, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
