What's new in v8.0
Replaced to new VAE : Fixed getting redder when using HiRes-Fix, img2img or ADeteiler.
Revised skin texture, composition and painting.
"HotaruBreed" series are merged models pursuing "kawaii", cuteness. I feel that model merging is similar to the breeding of flowers (to improve their appearance), so named "Breed".
HotaruBreed has special features :
Include many originally trained LoRA's to adjust painting style (saturation, tone), eye shape, and quality (finely detailed pupils, finely detailed outlines, reducing grain noise etc).
Highly detailed backgrounds.
Support NSFW outputs.
This is "RealMix" special edition - more 2.5d-like style than Type A.
HotaruBreed series have many variations :
Recommended output settings
CFG Scale: 7 - 10
Clip skip: 1 - 2
Sampler : DPM++ 2M SDE Karras / DPM++ 3M SDE Karras
Sampling steps: 30 - 50

VAE(v8.0) : HotaruVAE is included(baked) in this model. No need to use external VAE by default, but you can change to another VAE by setting on WebUI.
VAE(v1.0 - v7.0) : ClearVAE 1.0 is included(baked) in this model.
If character's face becomes darker, try to use my Front face lighting LoRA.
To tweak details, use HyperDetailer LoRA.
Recommended quality prompts (optional)
insanely detailed, absurdres, ultra-highres, ultra-detailed, best quality BREAK slender, kawaii, perfect symmetrical face, ultra cute girl, ultra cute face, ultra detailed eyes, ultra detailed hair, ultra cute, ultra beautiful
More various other LoRA's and checkpoints are released on my CivitAI models list or HuggingFace repository. Please check it out.
CAUTION : Some sample images' prompt is using NegPiP extension for minus weight.
