I cannot guarantee this model is good for what you want so try it out. If you want inside the site generator, feel free to bid on it by click the gavel/hammer icon next to the notification button on what version of this model you want to bid on. Also, all images outside of thumbnails with 7 CFG Euler Simple is just me sharing the prompts of some raffle images I got, I tend to run Euler Normal, 20 Steps, 4 CFG on that stuff.

  • Valkyr Core has a more basic look to it depending on the prompts, V1.0 and beyond will be refined for a more anime base style.

  • The Base Version may be rough depending on what you prompt or do with it, so use at your own transgression.

  • For best results use local generation, I've noticed. Unless I was prompting it wrong which could be the case.

Settings I personally use:

Steps: 20 or Higher
CFG: 3 or Higher until Overfitted/Overbaked
Sampler: Euler / Euler A (Ancestral)
Scheduler: Normal

Positive Prompt that I personally use:

masterpiece, best quality, highest quality, absurdres, highres, extremely detailed

Negative Prompt that I personally use:

worst quality, low quality, normal quality, lowres, blurry, out of focus, jpeg artifacts, compression artifacts, ugly, bad anatomy, bad proportions, bad hands, deformed, mutated, loli, shota, aged down, child

ADetailers are also recommended to be used with this however, I generate with base images to showcase off what the checkpoints does with the base generation for the thumbnails.


Feel free to test, experiment, generate with it, or even merge with it—I don't mind! Just make sure to give credit to the model existing, if you merge with it so I can eventually find your merge, and just maybe I'll give those merges a like if I like the results!~ c;


For those that it may concern:

Main Thumbnail Notes: Generated through ComfyUI then dumped into Gemini for the title, then removed the watermark, then ecaj used seedance or whatever for me as a placeholder (probably permanent) which I'm grateful. The title has a planet in the thumbnail as a nod to it's previous (and placeholder) name "Atlas Core"

Note: Unreleased is just a LoRA trained on that version of the checkpoint and will be never released as it is there to refine the checkpoint towards what I personally want. All versions were made on ComfyUI. Also "See Metadata for information." means drag and drop the model into ComfyUI to see what the flow was that made each version.
