Style Description
- highly-saturated postcard-like colors, flat high-key lighting, strong rim-lighting, 40s and 50s lifestyle
Recommended Usage
- Your prompt must include "tchnclr style"
- Use CFG of 7 or 8 for best results
- The model was trained with and excels at closeup portraits of men and women
- Try including "glitter" in your prompt!
- Putting "b&w" as a negative prompt will help ensure color image
Known Limitations
- It strongly tries to insert 40s and 50s hairstyles, clothing, and scenery
- As you can see from the examples, you can insert some modernity and blend with other styles. But if your prompt insists on all modern elements, the technicolor effect may disappear.
- The model tends to turn men into women. It also likes to add hats!
Training Process
20 images from movies filmed in technicolor, 200 photo-like classifiers, 6000 steps, using the Dreambooth Extension for Automatic1111.
Description
New in version 2
- higher quality output

- not strictly 1950's imagery
- Add "tchnclr" and/or "1950s" to enhance the technicolor effect
- The model was trained with and excels at closeup portraits of men and women
- The model makes beautiful hair, and describing the hair style helps
- Generating at 1024x with hires fix produces much better results than 512
- Use CFG of 4-7 for best results. Yes, 4!
- Faces tend to look similar. To avoid this, prompt a celebrity at low weight or use an alternating prompt, e.g "[woman|celebrity-name]"
- The more modernity that the prompt contains modern elements, the weaker the technicolor effect
- Blending with other artists and art styles reduces the technicolor effect but is worth trying
