Alternatively, describe photo-realistic images for more subtle, yet still very cool results!
Z-Image Base
LoRa strength from 0.4 to 1.0. I like it best at 0.8.
euler as sampler
Low shift: 2-3
CFG 7
trigger word not needed, but style boosters still recommended.
Z-Image Turbo
Use light LoRA weights! I personally prefer to set it between 0.4 and 0.6. Set it to 0.8 to full-blown grotesque fantasy with muted tones, and to 0.2 for just a light touch! A weight of 1.0 is discouraged, but you do you.
When going for the intended painterly illustration style, use euler as sampler, it produces much prettier images. Increasing the shift might help too.
If deformed monsters start to pop up all over your images, take your pills and/or lower the LoRA weight!
Flux
High weights: 0.8 - 1.0.
Try playing with the Flux Guidance to modulate the LoRA effect. If anatomy gets weird, lower the weight and/or increase the Flux Guidance value.
Illustrious
trigger word optional
LoRA weights: 0.7 - 0.9.
