[SDXL] Lord Recluse (City of Villains)

Lord Recluse from City of Heroes/City of Villains.

Due to a small dataset, emphasis is put on portraits and combat scenes.

This model has been made with a mix of game screenshots, fanarts and official artworks and videos.

#RedSideBestSide

He is from a 2004 game so generic renders may look a bit dull and flat.

Try adding "in the style of (game, movie)" in your prompt for a more modern look !

"cinematic lighting" definitely helps as well.

I may or may not know how to get his usual red lighted lair... 👀

Default look: helmet, red glowing eyes, fur trim, metallic armor, extra arms with claws

Helpers: dark, futuristic, post-apocalyptic, evil lair

Extras: red energy balls around hands, in the style of (game, movie), cinematic lighting

Don't forget to adjust your negative prompt for the claws !

Recommended weight: 0.75 - 1

Suggested base model: any photorealistic or semi will do. Mostly tested with Realities' Edge XL.

Side note: I may try and craft his heroic alter-ego Statesman if i manage to get decent results on him as well.
