v2: Re-merged to add dims2 "ILL XL Personal Merge". I first try the model and is impresive but i wanted the mixed style, so i merged it to the model and wow, much better, but was having some problems so i re merged all models to find the best one. Adding dims2 model to the merge added a lot of quality, better hands, better face and better 3d/"realism" but now is too sensitive to sampling, scheduler and CFG, so the new recommendations are:

(If you use any CFG Rescale now you need to double the CFG for some samplers, if not, it makes the image "dull", this only applies to anime/cartoon, 3d and realism low CFG is better)

Euler a SGM Uniform CFG 2+ for general use.
Euler Beta/SGM Uniform CFG 3+ for sharper images.
DPM++ 2/3/4M SDE Karras CFG 2+ for more sharpness, details and recommended for 3d/"realism".
For Euler/Euler a start with 10steps max 35 steps.
For DPM start with 20 steps max 35 steps.

I found v2 can have some problems with anime/cartoon eyes like >_<, ^_^, @_@ in some samplers. You need to add weight to make them work, example: (^_^:1.5).

It's a simple merge of my favorite models.

It can do 3d, cartoon, anime, flat, draw, sketch and more.

Like all illustrious models, you get good quality from close, medium is 50/50 and far needs ADetailer to fix faces/background.

Works with danbooru tags, anime characters, artist: prompt and illustrious/sdxl (pony sometimes works) loras.

Old Sampling and Schedule (V1):

Euler Beta/SGM Uniform for general images, start with 13 steps and 3-4 cfg, best quality starts at 19 steps, max 35 steps.
For sharper and more details i use DPM++ 2M/3M/4M SDE Karras at 30 steps max 35 steps.

Resolution (v1/v2):

Works with all SDXL resolutions, i personally use 1024/1152x1536 and sometimes 1280x1536 (with this you can get body extension).

Recommended base prompts (v1/v2):

Positive:

(best quality), (hires)

Negative:

[: hands, worst quality, bad quality, lowres, polydactyly :0.2]

Merge of and support them, they make cool models:
