ILRADIATED☢ - Illustrious

ILRADIATED is a model that, by default, errs towards the illustrative, flatter side of things (though sexier results tend to get shinier and more "fleshed out", I've noticed) and saturated, bright colors. Depending on how bright the colors are in your prompts the results can look, well, irradiated. The model takes its name from that particular feature and the fact that the first model added into the mix was a NUKE☣.

So, yeah, once again my choices of models to merge weighed more on if the name made sense to me rather than properly considering their mutual benefits.

This model is a real stone soup of a merge, as I used the ingredients I had on hand - a number of models and a baked-in VAE.

The Soup:

NUKE☣ - ILYume Tuned NSFW
HoloFusion
Quillworks Rhapsody Anime
Oblivion_(illustrious)
The I WonderMix
Liquid9745VAE

All said and done, I feel like ILRADIATED☢ is still a fairly conventional model with a bit of an attention-seeking problem. But maybe you like 'em a little loud.

As with my prior merge, MMMMMilk, I tended to stick with:

Sampler: Euler A
Schedule: Karras
Steps: 20-30

Nothing too daring, there, however I played around with various samplers and schedulers as well and most came back with results I was happy with. So, experiment. For science. For the future. For the chance at gaining superpowers through radiation.

And as with MMMMMilk, this model has only been tested in as much as I've used it a bunch and like it enough to bother uploading it. The only real issues I've had with it have usually been when I screw with settings that I shouldn't. If you're partial to flatter 2D images as well as bursts of bright color, well, pop on some sunglasses and realize how damn rad* you actually look in them.
