Quillworks2.0 illustrious checkpoint

✅ Key Features

• Painterly & Cartoon Focus: Default style leans into digital painting and stylized cartoon, but still supports oil painting, anime, sketch, brushwork, and semi-realism when prompted.
• Improved Anatomy: Stronger rendering of hands, faces, and limbs — particularly in character-focused prompts.
• Prompt Adherence: Significantly improved tagging and dataset curation enables better control and style guidance.
• Fast + Efficient: Excellent results on even lower end GPUs, making it highly cost-effective for local and online use.
• Cohesive Backgrounds: Solid environmental structure and lighting, especially in portrait scenes.

⚠ Limitations

As with all Illustrious-style models, minor visual quirks may still occur:

• Occasional extra fingers or facial distortion
• Some stylistic blending when pushing for styles
• Background details can vary depending on prompt complexity
