Original 1.0.x models are trained on around ~40 images of mecha, robots, machines and power armor using SD 1.5. The images are a mix of drawings, 3D renderings and AI images created in Midjourney.
The 2.0.x variants are trained on 28 Midjourney images of highly photo realistic, sleek robots and armor using SD 2.1 768.
If you download and use this model, PLEASE post a review! I'd value any feedback on the results.
Example prompts:
"+dvMech style, sleek body armor, mecha soldier, portrait, 85mm, f1.8, close up, photo realistic, jungle background, dramatic sunset lighting, shadows, subtle details, diffusion, highlight blooming, low contrast, desaturated"
In the above prompt example, edit the bold italic text above to change the subject, background/environment and lighting.
Here's another example prompt:
"+dvMech style, sleek body armor, mecha soldier, portrait, 85mm, f1.8, close up, photo realistic, desert military base background, soft morning lighting, shadows, subtle details, diffusion, highlight blooming, low contrast, desaturated"
Standard Negative Prompt: pixelated, high contrast, saturated, blurry, oversharpened, sketch, drawing, painting, brush strokes, cutoff head, cropped head, text, type, logo, watermark
All images Made in NMKD GUI, Euler, 25 steps, 768x512, 11.5 CFG, Custom VAE: vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned.ckpt
dvMech is a highly specialized Image generation AI Model of type Safetensors / Checkpoint AI Model created by AI community user darkvoyage. Derived from the powerful Stable Diffusion (SD 1.5) model, dvMech has undergone an extensive fine-tuning process, leveraging the power of a dataset consisting of images generated by other AI models or user-contributed data. This fine-tuning process ensures that dvMech is capable of generating images that are highly relevant to the specific use-cases it was designed for, such as mecha, robots, machines.
With a rating of 4.86 and over 7 ratings, dvMech is a popular choice among users for generating high-quality images from text prompts.
Yes! You can download the latest version of dvMech from here.
To use dvMech, download the model checkpoint file and set up an UI for running Stable Diffusion models (for example, AUTOMATIC1111). Then, provide the model with a detailed text prompt to generate an image. Experiment with different prompts and settings to achieve the desired results. If this sounds a bit complicated, check out our initial guide to Stable Diffusion – it might be of help. And if you really want to dive deep into AI image generation and understand how set up AUTOMATIC1111 to use Safetensors / Checkpoint AI Models like dvMech, check out our crash course in AI image generation.
For this dvMech 2.0.0 custom tuned mode, I did a full new training based on twenty-eight 768x768 images and the SD 2.1 768 base model. Training images were all highly detailed, photo-realistic mech/robots generated by MidJourney.
