HandDrawnAnime XL

My goal with this LoRA was to recreate a style of digital art I've seen floating around on various websites, the type where you can see the brush strokes. The type of art that could've easily been painted in Procreate or Photoshop. Please read the notes below to get optimal usage out of (what I think is) a very cool style. First time training an SDXL LoRA and a style LoRA!

Basic usage information:

• This was trained for 15 epochs, 325(x10) images, for a grand total of 48750 steps.

• Trained on base SDXL.

• Always include the key phrase "2d anime hand-drawn digital sketch style" at the beginning of your prompt.

  • Optionally, try "2d anime watercolor hand-drawn digital sketch style" for slightly different results.

• My preferred weight is 0.9, but 0.8 works well too. I feel like anything below 0.7 loses the style a bit, but whatever works for you.

This LoRA has some quirks:

• This LoRA was trained on women. I have no idea how well it can style the male form.

• Prefers a mix of regular SDXL phrases and Danbooru tags. Experiment a bit.

• Sometimes with hands (probably my training data's fault). Use a negative embedding if you can, or prompt creatively and inpaint and whatnot.

• Will try its hardest to generate boobs if given the opportunity. If you're having issues, just be more aggressive with your negative prompt. The issue lies in the training data I used :(

  • On this topic, don't specify a breast size unless you want to guarantee NSFW results.

  • i hope to fix this in the future if I can muster the patience to set my computer aside to train for another 3 days straight...

I hope you enjoy this LoRA! Please leave a review on your experience and share an image so I can improve in the future :)

If you're happy with my work and feeling generous, I'm working on saving up for a new GPU so a donation would be appreciated very much.
