Hey friends~💛

It’s no secret by now… I love merging checkpoints.

Designing characters has always felt natural to me ~ whether in games, drawings, or dreams ~ so it was only a matter of time (and GPU 🫣) until I dove into crafting my own models.

With SEMImergeij, I set out to create more than a style ~ I wanted a presence.

A character with a soul, a face that tells stories, and a vibe that adapts to her world. Whether she’s framed by grungy textures, retro light, or nature’s calm ~ she remains her. Fluid in setting, yet always true to herself.

After V3, I received thoughtful feedback around representation and diversity ~ something I care deeply about. V4 leaned into that diversity beautifully, but in the process, she began to drift from her original self. With V5, I’ve brought her back ~ still open to many shapes and stories, but with her essence intact.

A familiar face. A quiet strength. A creative companion for many worlds.

Thanks so much for being here.

Stay creative, stay curious ♡

~ Reij 💖

🤗 If SEMImergeij found her way into ur world, a like would be a lovely lil hello back.

Semimergeij Illustrious V3

The main changes in V3 were to be able to use the model without negative prompt, as well as to keep the style and colors at CFG 1 to enable faster image processing. From 20 steps the model can so be used with CFG 1. I would recommend an adetailer or facefix for further distances. The resolution for image generation starts as usual at 1024*1024, but the model can also be used for larger images. Visually, V3 is more back to the roots, just galloping back onto the pony: it is more based on the look of the pony version ~ a mix of art with drawn contours including a semi-realistic filling.

As a fan of playing with light and shadow, I love setting individual highlights and bringing certain accents into the light. V3 is therefore also based on shadow and light details to enable more play here.

Semimergeij Illustrious V2

a tinybit more details and extras ~ ♥

In addition to the included models, semimergeij V2 includes Loras that I trained specifically for this merge to allow for warmer, softer light with the associated softer tones despite maintaining dynamic colors. In addition, details are understood differently than in the previous version.

Please let me know if u like the direction and how we can develop Semimergeij further.

I'm looking forward to ur results and hope u have a lot of fun being creative.

Semimergeij Illustrious V1

hey guys,

after starting with IL, I felt in love with the closeness to the prompt, depictions of the hands, expressions, motion and colors. especially because I like to create portraits, but also have my NSFW moments, the faces and bodies are always particularly close to my heart. so I made an effort to tinker SEMImergeij as an IL version. maybe u want to ride the pony illustrious? 😅

✨setting examples:

  • Clip skip 2

  • Sampling method: Euler a

  • Sampling steps: 25+

  • CFG Scale: +-6

  • resolution: 1040x1510 / 832x1216

  • Hires x1,5 / Hires steps 20 / Hires denoising 0,2 / Hires CFG 1

  • ADetailer for further distance recommended

  • quality +prompt: masterpiece, best quality, [...]

    • incl. alternative: realistic body

  • quality -prompt: worst quality, bad quality, [...]

I am happy if u enjoy and stay curious abt ur results ~♥

With V9 I would like to return a bit to the semi realism touch. With a view to my love for comics, I would like to present “V9” to you.

semimergeij - soft and silky within, hard rendered - wants to grow into a digital art style with a semi-realistic 3d look in a drawn shell with a fantasy anime-semireal-inspired character design.

I am grateful for your feedback and am really looking forward to seeing your creations!

prompt:

PonyScores, 1 woman, blush, horny, beautiful 30 age years old sexy woman, blonde, catlady, cattail, catears, eating a chocolate cookie, face focus, off the shoulder, winter background, dimmed light, indoor

For show case image style I would recommend using an ADetailer.

ADeailer positive prompt: PonyScores,

ADetailer negative prompt: PonyScores,

If u wanna keep the style of the showcase images u can keep writing 'PonyScores' in positive and negative prompt (+ in ADetailer prompt if u like to)

if u wanna skip ADetailer I would recoomend using scores but for fullbody I would recommend using it anyway.

here are some examples with scores:

in increments of 10 steps I wanna show u examples of steps 20 - 100 with scores

In case u are a comic fan as I am and would like to generate comic pages, I would recommend to write"letters, text, watermarks, numbers" and so on in the negative prompt to avoid random texts

examples how to bake showcase inspired images of V9 without ADetailer and hires / the style is just similar

without scores, just with "PonyScores"

In case u wanna scip Adetailer, Hires and scores I have tried to find a prompt description of the style based on the showcase images.

prompt parts baked with:

  1. PonyScores,

  2. soft, beauty, harmonious, face focus, smooth eyes, soft skin, oily skin, glossy skin, and semi-realistic, round face, luminous sheen, porcelain-like effect, slight gradients, depth, glowing effect, three-dimensional feel, front studio light, mat eyes, warm light,

  3. [ur vision]

neg. prompt:

PonyScores, young, glowing iris

Gorgeous checkpoint. It does struggle a bit with fantasy colors outside of standard fantasy creatures, but otherwise easy to work with and produces consistently beautiful pictures.

In my opinion, probably one of the best ever for catonnish images !!! ❤️‍🔥

great checkpoint found one small issue though. if you use dark skin in prompt it have a very high probailty of giving tan lines as well no matter what you do.

I've been trying to generate an image of a man's back view while he's embracing a woman (or with his head buried in her chest), but I haven't had much luck. Anything from the man's back perspective doesn't seem to generate well. Is this a limitation of Illustrious itself?

understands the model text or can someone recommend a decoder if the model is compatible

Reijilita is taking over Illustrious. May you keep up the excellent work.

I've now tested your model for several hours and created over 300 images.

Positive: It consistently produces beautiful images.

Negative: As the CFG increases, the model loses its semi-realism and tends more towards anime.

Ethnic characteristics cannot be reproduced. All generated faces are largely the same, even with tokens like "African woman" or "Asian woman."

Although the skin color also changes in CFG-1, the face remains rather Caucasian.

Age information such as "mature woman" or "older woman" only becomes effective at higher CFGs. Specifying the age in numbers, such as "50yo" (50 years old), also has no effect at low CFGs.

The model also doesn't handle complex prompts in real language well. While it creates a nice image, it's far from what's described. Only at higher CFGs (>6) does it get somewhat closer to the prompt, but as already described, it loses much of its semi-realism.

Conclusion: If the uniform faces of a young woman with light skin are enough for you, you'll certainly have fun with the model. For me personally, it's not suitable, and the 200 buzz for Early Access was a waste.
