New Upload - UltraMatureSaturday

It's an improved take on TastefullyNude-SaturdayMorningSpecial using similar formulae as UltronMerge.

It's nothing big, just something to play around with.

It's cartoony like SaturdayMorningSpecial, but respects and remixes artistic styles (TN-SMS ignores them entirely).

There's one unresolved problem - genitals don't work and unlike UltronMerge, my Lora toolset doesn't play nice with this model. So yeah, there's that.

You can merge 0.25 TN-Triforce-Alt to this to go more realistic but still very 2.5D, or 0.25 TN-SMS again to go even more cartoony. It's quite flexible and output is good.

Overall ExtraNoiseAdjust+Megatron+BaraArt remix improves a lot of models. It's redundant to upload all 50 shades of UltronMerge, but some that I feel are distinct enough, I'll showcase here.

CAUTION! UltraMatureSaturday is not SFW, it really likes to generate genitals (even though it can't).

UltronMerge is a malecentric/homoerotic, img2img focused, ultra upscale capable checkpoint merge.

TastefullyNude-Triforce-Alt (~55%)

+ MegatronMerge (~30%)

+ RuggedResolve-BaraArt (~15%)

Pros

- MegatronMerge output versatility.

- Triforce ultra upscale capability.

- MegatronMerge hands improved (I'll credit this one to BaraArt, because Triforce had bad hands as well).

- Two models that are good at img2img merged together, make another model that's very good at img2img.

- Strong style morph. Remixes artistic styles and mediums with Triforce's 2.5D men.

- Some new imagery. Big improvement in wide aspect ratio (786x512) output. No idea where that came from. I assume it's from BaraArt, but I'm not 100% sure, as I didn't test BaraArt in this way.

- Even though I call it male-centric, women work really well too. Probably even better than men.

- General output is better than anything I've used so far in terms of SD1.5 artistic checkpoints (from current testing - I will be using this model for a while).

- Because of ^^^, random prompting this model is a treat. It's still SD1.5 and needs inpainting for a finished image, but don't think I even cared about random prompts with any of my other merges.

- Variety of styles makes ControlNet reference_only surprisingly strong.

Cons

- Facial aesthetics suffered a little - guys are not as idealistic as they are in Triforce, but still good looking (from current testing - Triforce facial aesthetic does still appear in certain styles; default face did in fact remix unfavorably with Megatron and BaraArt).

- Triforce male genital tech did not survive the merge. Outlines are often there, but for details - use loras.

Suggestions

- All images, as usual, upscaled with 4x-Ultrasharp upscaler in Ultimate SD Upscale script.

- My sampler/step combo of choice - DPM++ 2M SDE Karras, 40 steps. But most of anything works with this merge.

- For male nudity just use 'nude man'. Prompting any "penisy" keywords is unnecessary.

- I did not train any of the models this merge is derived from (aside from Genitals Lora in Triforce, but I reserve no rights on that one, use it however you want). If you're looking for permissions, I'm not the one to ask. If you still ask me, output is in no way exclusive to any of the merged models - just somewhat more refined general indistinguishable SD look.

- Most of my previews are cherry picked and inpainted, because - if I myself can't make good images with the checkpoint I'm uploading, who tf can?

Until next time.

Good luck and have fun!
