This model is trained on several neutral standing sprites from the Metal Slug series and intended to create similar/parodic characters. It is intended to create humans, so non-humans characters (like Mars People) are not in the training data, but you're welcome to experiment.
The sample images shown has some cleaning up done to them.
Summarized Directions: Generate at 512x512 / 768x768 / 1024x1024, then shrink to 128x128.
I suggest Nearest Upscaling to make the pink backgrounds easier to clean
Suggested Weight: 1.0
Suggested Resolution: 512x512 / 768x768 / 1024x1024 (model trained on 768 resolution)

[Various weapon types] - rifle, sniper rifle, machine gun, handgun, revolver, etc
