BrushFire - Illustrious Style Lora

As of now this is just an experimental version of this release. It does not quite meet my ease of use expectations and needs to be run in Kohya again. However this LoRA has created some fantastic images with some very specific prompting and use.

This Lora is HARD to use but can give amazing output in particular situations.

This Lora was trained on the trigger phrase "vivid painting style" and on its own will apply a painterly effect that uses colors well. But when you add more to the prompt, it can take it from a nice painting to a very unique style that is best described as an unfinished concept art style. You need to use words like "sketch, loose sketch, glowing" in the prompts to push into the full stylistic output. This applies best in HassakuV2.2 and also applies in QuillworksV15 but has not been tested in other models and probably requires a slight adjustment to the prompting to achieve full output.

The full output often involves a character sketch that has a vivid glow effect in the image. This glow effect is meant to mimic neon light where the center is pure white and the color appears on the edges, creating a very strong effect. The effect can be significantly amplified by prompting for a black or grey background instead of letting it stay white.

Due to the current experimental nature of this lora and the unpredictable nature of the output I don't recommend burning through too many credits trying to get a specific idea to work on this yet. However if you're looking to experiment with glowing effects and are more open to taking a few runs to see its real potential, go ahead and test it out, but everyone else should probably wait for the full release of this model.
