I was curious if I could add the data of Animagine 4 XL to Noobai or viceversa, but it would not play well in normal merger method. So, I did some research and learned about DARE Merge in Comfyui, so I learned Comfyui and played around the Merge method and this model is the result. During my testing I learned the CLIP is what was causing the bad results during merging, if someone knows a way to combine Animagine+Illustriouos Clips properly, let me know!

So, what I did was basically this:

(Animagine XL 4.0 Opt + (AGXL - SDXL)) + NoobaHoshi + Loras

It's still not what I really wanted, the results are ok imo, but it ended up with Animagine with realism added with some more dynamic posing, but it's a hit or miss.
So it isn't that bad and wanted to share the experiment, still I hope people enjoy it.

PERMISSIONS AND RESTRICTIONS:

✔Use only on CivitAI

✔Mergers allowed

✔Share art outside CivitAI

✔Credit me or name the model used

❌Use this model or Merges of this model outside of CivitAI

❌Sell Art

❌Sell Model

❌Claim it's your Art

HOW TO USE IT:

From my experimentation, play with quality tags, sometimes not having them can produce better results, it allows the Artist Styles to pop more at times, also BREAK can limit creativity at times, so play around and figure out the best results. XL and Illustrious Lora's worked, I didn't try Pony, so try and let me know.

Also, since I added a REALISTIC style, putting REALISTIC on the negative prompts wiil help 2D styles to look more 2D.

Anyways, follow the typical NoobAi/Animagine prompt structure.

#gender, character, series, character description, artist tag or style, quality tags, camera tags, theme or background tags, actions, clothing

EXAMPLE:

1girl, character, series, BREAK
masterpiece, best quality, high score, great score, very aesthetic, highly detailed, ultra detailed, absurdres, perfect composition, intricate details, elaborated designs, ultra-detailed Face, detailed eyes, dynamic angle, medium full shot, restaurant, coffee, snow, elbow rest on table, BREAK
elegant, ornate clothing, dress, high heels,

Negative Prompts:

(add REALISTIC to help the 2D Styles, since REALISTIC is the trigger word for the Realistic style)

sketch, worst quality, bad quality, bad hands, missing eyes, bad eyes, unfinished, unclear fingertips, twist, squiggly, incomplete, imperfect fingers, very displeasing, mess, approximate, sloppiness, artist name, error, extra digit, fewer digits, jpeg artifacts, signature, watermark, username, reference, disorganized colors, cropped, mutated, split view, manga, comic, twisted, censor, simple background, (artist name:1.2), tattoos, copyright notice,

Settings I used:

Sampling method: Euler a mostly, other Samplers can work
Sampling steps: 20 - 30
CFG Scale: 6 - 10

REGARDING AI:
My stance is that AI doesn't produce art, but it allows to materialize concepts/ideas, but I don't consider it art. So, IF I include prompts in the examples, I will most likely not include artist tags in the prompts.

Licenses of models used in the merger apply to this model too
