🔹🏵️ Hello, this is Ether One Mix 🏵️🔹

An anime mix inspired by the simplicity and style flexibility of the original NAI model. Ether One is focused on decent LORA compatibility as well as providing a flat, slightly rough aesthetic. How about we take it back to square one?

✨ Please Share Your Cool Creations Below! ✨

* Version Two:

With version two I focused on two aspects, anatomy and refining the aesthetic. I increased weights within the anatomy focused models, Basil Mix and AOM3, while adjusting and adding LORAs with a rougher texture.

Style flexibility seems to have been reduced somewhat but I believe the base aesthetic became much cooler.

If you have any feedback I'd be happy to hear it.

☄️ Generation Recommendations

Use whatever sampler, steps, CFG, clip skip you prefer.

Sample images were generated with

• Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karras

• Steps: 20 - 28

• CFG: 7 - 11

• Clip Skip: 1

• ENSD: 31337

Increasing CFG can lead to more vibrant results.

Negative Prompt Example:

"NSFW, (worst quality, low quality:1.3)"

I recommend this simple negative prompt if you wish to achieve a similar style to the preview images. You can further alter positive and negative prompts based on the type of style you'd like to achieve.

Style focused negative prompt examples:

* Photorealism feel:

• "sketch, drawing, anime, cartoon, illustration, NSFW, (worst quality, low quality:1.3)"

* Flat Anime/Cartoon:

• "realistic, photorealistic, photograph, 3D, NSFW, (worst quality, low quality:1.3)"

Recommended VAE:

Waifu Diffusion VAE kl-f8-anime2

The VAE is baked. I strongly recommend this VAE as the model was tuned with its color and saturation in mind.

Sample images were further upscaled using AUTO1111 Hi-res fix. Please utilize it if you wish to achieve similar results.

• Latent (nearest-exact)

• Upscale by: 2

• Denoising strength: 0.55

Are your results changing too much after Hi-res fix? Please try 4x-foolhardy-Remarci.

• 4x-foolhardy-Remarci

• Upscale by: 2

• Denoising strength: 0.45 - 0.55

🖊️ Prompting Advice

To achieve the aesthetic featured in the gallery I recommend using the suggested positive and negative prompts of AOM3.

• masterpiece, best quality,

• NSFW, (worst quality, low quality:1.3)

The model was mixed and tested using these prefixes and will give you the most consistent style results. Of course you're free to prompt however you'd like as booru-style models tend to be quite flexible in prompting.

If you look at the prompts included with the sample images they demonstrate that even with a very loose and vague style of prompting you can achieve fun, high quality images.

Experiment and give the AI some freedom to interpret your ideas!

General guidelines:

• Prompt in the style of anime/booru-style models, "masterpiece, best quality, ..... "

  • More anime style images

• Prompt in the style of photography/non-anime models, "professional photograph of ..... "

  • More realistic images, higher style variety

📘 Model Merging Info - v1

I have no training or real knowledge of machine learning. I merged the model using the information provided on WarriorMama777's AOM model page as well as the info from these Rentrys. I very arbitrarily mixed the UBM weights of each model, modifying the values with trial and error until I was visually satisfied with it.

I utilized the SuperMerger extension for AUTO1111 by hako-mikan.
