Malty || Shield Hero

Hi there, this page will contain all the information you need about my Malty lora. This lora is intended to help in the generation of Malty from "the rising of the shield hero" (aka "tate no yuusha no noriagari") and it was trained for 2 main reasons: - i wanted to have an even more stable character while using illustriousXL - my intention of having a bunch of loras of the serie that were all at the same level. This is a character lora, so the following sections will be structured as follows: - A section containing the technical stuff. - A section containing the tips and tricks. - A section containing some tests. - A brief summary. Faq: Does this model support nsfw? Short answer: Yes, and feel free to use this for that. This model was trained on a dataset of 30 images of the highest quality available. The dataset was not conditioned by any data augmentation tecnique, and the training went on for about 10 epochs with 3 repeats each. The Lora is intended to have 1 activation keyword, which will have a general feeling of the character and that will stabilize the tags "ponytail, red hair, hair ornament, green eyes, lipstick, jewelry, earrings " to make them reproduce the likeness of Malty. The activation keyword is: M4lty extra strongly suggested prompt: ponytail, red hair, hair ornament, green eyes, lipstick, jewelry, earrings This lora is able to reproduce the Official outfit of the character, using the prompt: armored dress, cape 1girl, solo, m4lty, red hair, ponytail, green eyes, jewelry, earrings, lipstick, {attire tags}, {actions and/or poses}, {indoors || outdoors}, {background description} It's test times: The test were all done using WAI-NSFW-illustrious-SDXL with the following settings: steps: ~30 cfg: ~6 ~6.4 when used adetailer: model: ultrasharp steps: 15 denoising: 0.25 - expressions test: it seems to support the whole range of emotions without any major tweaking needed. - Clothing test: - the 1st image is the official outfit - the 2nd image is a random outfit (i've chosen a standard school uniform with gyaru vibes) - the 3rd test is a test to see if the lora reacts well to nsfw stuff (it is censored because this page is setted as a PG-page). Notes: remember that to remove the choker is REQUIRED the tag "no neckwear" in the positive prompt. So what are my toughts on this? I am happy with the results, it's pretty flexible, it didn't cost me too much (i am talking about the time and resources needed), and even toh the dataset wasn't big, the result is pretty good. This lora is part of my character loras collection you can find those in: faq: Will you train other characters from shield hero? And at the time of writing i've already trained and tested few more loras from shield hero characters (mirelia, melty, fitoria), and those will be available pretty soon (maybe i'll publish them along with this one). But considering that i am not intentioned to train loras for filo and raphtalia i guess i will stop (atleast for now) with those four characters. Maybe i will train glass and the other heroes in the future (but not any time soon). That said, as always, i thank you for reading all this. Remember if you like my work you can help me by following this account, publishing your content here, and share your works with your friends. I hope you will find this helpfull and that i will see you for my next loras.
