Lieutenant Cobalt (Vega Hunters)

V2 Changes: I was inspired by NMackelie's latest takes on the Vega girls to get off my ass and finish fixing Cobalt! Go check out his series, they look pretty good. Thanks to the addition of generated images to the dataset, the black trim and orange lines are now much more consistent- still not perfect, but it's a heck of a lot better than before. I'd like to think the eyes are a little better but I honestly can't tell.

You may have heard of or played Balsamique/David Goujard's point-and-click masterpiece Behind the Dune (and if you haven't I recommend you do), but he also made Vega Hunters, a game likewise set in space that has you assume the role of a bounty hunter. Like BtD, Vega Hunters has some fantastic character designs, and best girl Cobalt is definitely my favorite. Unfortunately, unlike BtD, Vega Hunters isn't as extensive, so Cobalt's single CG (technically 2 but it's the same setting) left me craving more of her. Which is where this LoRA comes in.

Promptable are her bodysuit and her visor. Fun fact: she's always wearing a visor in game, so in order to get non-visor images for the dataset I had to manually recolor the area her visor covers. Thank GOD for the Healing Brush tool.

Fun fact 2: She has 3 unique, usable stills. Possibly due to this shallow dataset that I cropped and rotated a gorillion times her bodysuit will usually lack the black trim that goes down past the waist as seen in picture 3. This is my number one priority for improvements in V2.

Eyes are pretty shaky all around; I'll see what I can do there too in V2 (maybe more cropped closeups?). Try upscaling if you don't want to roll the eye gacha.

Enjoy!
