Pathfinder branches from Maverick's flexibility fusing in Nu Element and other resources to further expand on expressive fantasy elements along with a stronger cartoon/animation styling. This model offers a wide range of creativity from flat 2D styles, anime/illustration, cartoon/animation, semi-realistic styles + more. I would love to see the styles you come up with!

💡 This model is currently somewhat of an experimental project.

Recommended Use

There is a lot of variation in parameters for what works. Be aware on the styling you're choosing and use what you find best. The example images, gallery sections, and the quick start below are good starting points.

~20 steps, 7 scale, ~0.3-0.5 denoising, clip skip 1 or 2

Disclaimer

This model(s) may output NSFW content unintentionally depending on parameters used. Make sure you tailor your prompts accordingly. For example "nsfw" in the negative prompt.

The purpose of sharing this model is not to showcase obscene material in a public forum. The use of this learning model is entirely at the discretion of the user, and they have the freedom to choose whether or not to create SFW or NSFW content. The decision of whether to engage with SFW or NSFW content lies with the user and their own personal preferences. The ai model(s) do not contain explicit visual content that can be accessed easily.
