Designed by Ktiseos Nyx.

TEA SIP Mix aka "STYGIAN MIX" - inspired by the former SD 1.5 line "EPIC MIX" that was named after I beleive epiC Realism? We changed it because we had like 4 lines that were all different and it made no sense... and then we stopped wanting to call it STYIGAN on Pony, so VOILA TEASIP! SIP DAT TEA! It's now on IllustriousXL!

🛠️ Merge & Training Details

The backbone of Teasip Mix is built upon numerous LoRAs, many of which were trained in-house by Ktiseos Nyx. We're always experimenting and creating! Due to the wonderfully rapid pace of Ktiseos Nyx's LoRA development, we confess that sometimes the exact lineage of merged checkpoints becomes a delightful mystery. We believe in training as much as we can ourselves, but the spirit of community and shared creation is vital!

To get the best out of ANY of our models (god i keep forgetting to swap this bit), try these settings:

  • Samplers: Euler or Euler Ancestral

  • Scheduler: Karras

  • Negative Prompt: Generally not needed! The model is designed to perform well without one, but feel free to experiment based on your preferences.

  • HiRes Fix:

    • Steps: 15

    • Denoise: 0.3

    • Upscale: 2x

  • Upscalers: Rex, 4x_Remacri, or your personal favorite.

  • ADetailer: Use sparingly. Due to potential VAE differences, it might occasionally produce grey squares.

  • Embeddings: We've used some of our own custom embeddings to showcase character types in our examples, but no stylistic embeddings were necessary to achieve the core look.

  • LoRA Compatibility: Chances are good that most LoRAs will work with Caught up Mix. However, be aware that while they will function, the result might not perfectly align with your expectations if the LoRA heavily influences style. It's a "What You See Is What You Get" situation with the base model's strong aesthetic – it'll likely produce a good image, just perhaps not the one you had in mind with a very specific LoRA.
