Before to use
You have to know how works Stable Diffusion. I recommend using Automatic1111 like an interface to launch the model.
This is a model trained on SD 1.5 model, so you have to consider that it is not perfect. I had to make so much testing before to arrive to a stable generation. I will enhance the model when a better base model arrives (like SD XL new one).
This is a Checkpoint dataset.
It is a merge, so consider that it could sometimes generate NSFW images. Add in the negative prompt just "nudes".
I recommend you to follow me on my instagram account, where I will explain about AI image generation: https://www.instagram.com/eddiemauro.design/
Intro
FRESH DRAW (anime and manga eddiemauro-mix): CHECKPOINT: Hi, I’m a product and car designer, and I’m so excited to test with AI, I think is a good tool for designing. It was created by combining some models here from civitai, with a style of anime, manga and drawing. It is a good model for art-drawing (2D) representation. Furthermore, it has vivid color mostly, but you can control it with prompt. It is good to adapt to different Lora drawing styles. Likewise, it has a little influence from my "Fresh Mix Series" models.
v1.5: Slightly better than 1 version. A bit darker sometimes. Less NSFW, but still has it.

Installation
I use Automatic1111, the best UI for Stable Diffusion image generation, so I recommend you to install locally or use it online with some Colab or other hosting. You can find online instructions or videos to do that. If you are going to install locally, you can watch this tutorial online and I recommend you to have at least a 6-8 Gb of VRAM Graphic Card (nvidia) to have a stable interface and launch with “Microsoft Edge” because you will have problems on “Google Chrome”. Try also to install “medvram” or “lowvram” options besides “xformers” (search online how to).
You have to install the Checkpoint model to use.
Please for image creation you have to follow all my recommendations, if you don't, it is impossible to generate a good image quality. Also, you have to consider that from today AI image generation is not so consistent and perfect, you have to invest time to get it and make plenty of tests.
Recommendations for image generation
Activation token/caption: Put in the first part of the prompt: "Illustration of", "Drawing of" or "Sketching of", to put more art style into the image, but is not mandatory.
NSFW: Sometimes it will produce NSFW, and also whole CIVITAI. Try to put in Negative prompt: "((NSFW)), Cleavage, Pubic Hair, Nudity, Naked, Au naturel, Watermark, Text, censored". If you don't want to see something that you "don't want" to see, just don't use this model, and even that, don't visit civitai. After so many tests, I consider that this model has a normal level of NSFW content, taking in account that this is a mix.
Another recommended prompting: Inside prompt you can use those words that will enhance the image generation: in the positive space, “8k, ((masterpiece)), artstation, highly detailed, sharp focus”; in the negative space: “(worst quality:2), (low quality:2), (normal quality:2), lowres, cropped, text, jpeg artifacts, signature, watermark, username, blurry, realistic, render, out of frame”. You can also watch the image metadata of example images here and simulate the prompt. v.1.5: just add what you want to create.
Textual inversion/embedding or Lora tool recommended: I consider that “EasyNegative” is one best of textual inversion for negative prompt space, you should use it. Download here and install it, putting the file inside “embeddings”. You can use it also “Detail Tweaker” to put more details of the image, for that, you have to download from here, install like a Lora and use it inside positive prompt with a value of “1”. Use it when you realize the checkpoint used has so many details, but not when you see that minimalism is on it. v.1.5: just add EasyNegative and bad_prompt_version2 embeddings. This Checkpoint is excellent to use with different Lora's and Styles.
VAE: For sketch style is mandatory to use "kl-f8-anime2". Download and install if you don't have it. v.1.5: the VAE is baked.
Clip Skip: Use 2. Use 1 just for experiments.
Steps and CFG: It is recommended to use Steps from “20-40” and CFG scale from “6-9”, the ideal is: steps 30, CFG 8. For next models, those values could change. v.1.5: use 6-7 CFG, and 20-30 steps.
Sampler: I use mostly “EulerA” or “DPM++SDE Karras”. Euler tends to be simpler and more creative. Make experimentation with other samplers if you like.
Batch: In txt2img try to put a value of 4 to generate more than 1 image and watch the generations. If you have a good graphic card, you can use “Batch size”, this will create at same time 4 images, increasing generation time; but if your computer cannot handle this, change to “Batch count” that will create 4 images in a row (not a same time), but generation time will be more.
Image aspect: Try to use these dimensions: 512x512, 768x512, 512x768. Don't generate bigger images because the style could be lost, if you want to create a bigger image, use hires.fix in txt2img mode, img2img increase method or Ultimate SD Upscale script extension + ControlNet, or just upscaling with GAN models.
Create bigger images: There are 4 different methods to create large images in Stable Diffusion, you can check online how to. For first method “txt2img hires.fix”, I recommend you to use upscale model called “4x-AnimeSharp”, downloading here just “.pth” file, and then installing it, putting inside “ESRGAN” file. In hires.fix option put any “upscale by” value, and then with a “denoise strength” of “0.5-0.7”. For the second method, you have to select first the image generated in txt2img and then putting in img2img mode, increasing dimension at least “1,5 times” with a “denoise strength” from “0.3-0.5”. For the third method, you can use the same configuration of img2img, but activating “tile” mode of “ControlNet” extension and also the script of “Ultimate SD Upscale”, but for that, I recommend you to watch a tutorial here. For the last method, you have to pass the generated image in txt2img to “extras” and then select a GAN model and scale it, you can also use the “4x-UltraSharp” model.
Get more control of your creation: Use “ControlNet” extension to generate a more controlled shape of what you want, and even you can test it with sketches. Use “Scribble” or “Lineart” modes. For that, I recommend you to install this extension and then learn to how to use. There are plenty of online videos about it.
Copy prompt for image metadata: You can download my example images here and put it inside “PNG info” tab from Automatic1111.
Example Prompting:
Positive prompt:
[description here, example: "Illustration of a man holding a sword ...] then you can add whatever you want .... 8k, ((masterpiece)), artstation, highly detailed, sharp focus
Negative prompt:
EasyNegative, (worst quality:2), (low quality:2), (normal quality:2), out of frame, blurry
Steps: from 20-40 (Use DPM++SDE Karras or EulerA)
CFG scale: 7-9 (8 Ideal).
v.1.5 Positive prompt:
1girl Illustration [lora embedding]
Negative prompt:
embedding:EasyNegative, asian, nudes, strabismus, embedding:bad_prompt_version2
Steps: from 20-30 (Use DPM++SDE Karras or EulerA)
CFG scale: 6-7 (6 Ideal).
What comes for the future
I’m already trying to enhance the model. This was trained with 512 image aspect, so I will try with 768 (bigger one), and also other configurations (like changing captions, steps, epochs, etc.). If you like a better model of this version, try to keep supporting me on ko-fi, if there are more people supporting me, I can invest more time to train and enhance models, but if this doesn't happen I cannot.
I launched my first private model for my Ko-fi membership lv.1, called "eddiemauro scene" minimalistic scenery creation for rendering. If you want to access to private models, you can support me and subscribe to this membership. I will also start to upload here more models centered on product and car design.
