This version replicates drawing style of Paul Cesar Helleu, although final result will heavily depend on you used checkpoint and prompt. For example, usage of colors will diverge from "pencil drawing" towards "painting", but that's not bad, and can give interesting results. Not all V-prediction checkpoints will work, in my testing some are affected by this LoRA, but images do not resemble Helleu's drawings or paintings at all. It will work with some Epsilon prediction checkpoints, but again, not all of them. On Epsilon results may be of entirely different style, but that is not necessarily bad.

Experiment, try different things, most importantly, have fun. Let me know what you like and don't like, post some images with your favorite checkpoint.

Things to try:

• Color themes (like blue-theme, pink theme, etc)

• monochrome, greyscale, monochrome, greyscale

• sketch

Potential problems:

• Tendency towards female characters, so may genderswap or crossdress your character

• Default color hair comes from Helleu's palette, so it's somewhat red hair with black or grey

• Faces may be awful

• May undress your character

• May give your character a dress

Not problems:

• Signature. With my LoRAs it's a feature

• Image may fade out into white loosing details or leave some parts "unfinished". It's from artist's style

Tips:

• Limit use of color

• Don't make complex environments or backgrounds - there is no such nonsense in Helleu's drawings

• Experiment with prompt detalisation

• Have fun and post an image or leave a comment

• Play with LoRA strength. 1 is a good basis, but between 0.5 and 1.3 or 1.4 can give better results depending on prompt and checkpoint used

Tested with (and had nice results):

• Noob 1.1 EPS

• Noob 1.0 V-pred (trained on this one)

• Pasanctuary 5.0 (4.0 works, but weird)

• Obsession V-pred 1.0

• WAI-SHUFFLE-Noob - result is nice mix of anime-style and Helleu

• DOMKU v2 - light effect

• Hassaku XL Illustious 1.3a and v2 - may give interesting results, or may give "meh", from my point of view not woth the effort

• PencilXL V-pred - works

• Cat Tower V-pred - doesn't work at all
