Japanese Stone Walls and Gatehouses

Enter the World of the Samurai

This is a model designed to create Japanese stone walls, gatehouses and roofed walls of samurai residences, which are found throughout Japan.

Using this Model

Great news! This model does not require keywords to function, but there are a few words that will help. For example, roofed wall and canal will definitely help if those are features you are seeking to produce. Uchikomi (rough hewn) and kirikomi (fine hewn) are also trained but it tends to get them confused. Mossy and even blocks are also trained but tend to produce lackluster results, but it's fine if the subject matter is the main focus.

Strength settings are recommended at 0.3 to 1.0.

The LoRA can help the model understand the prompt, and help provide coherence. On the left, the model was not used, and on the right, it was enabled at 0.6 strength. Note how the shoe does not disappear into the blanket and her hairstyle and face look better. Of course, the wall looks much more realistic.

The whole point of this model is better looking walls that look and feel like Japan, not Europe.

If walls are clogging up the view (as in above) remember to add other details to the prompt to add space between the subject and the wall. Nearby walls can affect lighting and drag down the beauty of the subject. Just keep that in mind!
