I present my rough attempt at a Illustrious character LoRA for Jonas Balkar from SWTOR.

For V3 I revised the NSFW training images and also revised some of training tags so his hair would be more consistent when I use him with 2d/art style LoRAs.

LoRA strength recommendations

• Use LoRA strength 0.7 with about CFG 4-5.

The tags for V3 are as follows:

main tags

jonasbalkar, 1boy, adult male, mature, very short hair, black hair, blue eyes

outfit tags

shoulder straps, brown jacket, white shirt, leather bracers, brown belt, striped pants, blue pants, boots

The settings I used for my generation testing were 4-5 CFG, 20 steps, Euler A - Karras on Forge with an adetailer (specifically face_yolov8s).

V2 is my second version and attempt to refine the details and quality. I also cleaned up and removed some unnecessary training tags (hair/eye color, navel hair, pubic hair, etc. If he looks a bit too slim/young just add the bara tag.

LoRA strength recommendations

• Use LoRA strength 0.7 with about CFG 3-4.

The tags for V2 are as follows:

main tags

jonasbalkar, 1boy, adult male

outfit tags

shoulder straps, brown jacket, white shirt, leather bracers, brown belt, striped pants, blue pants, boots

The settings I used for my generation testing were 3-4 CFG, 20 steps, DPM++ 2M SDE - Karras on Forge with an adetailer (specifically face_yolov8s).

V1 is my initial attempt and produced decent results. The results had a tendency to look younger than I wanted him to but adding mature male to the positive prompt made him look closer to the way he's supposed to.

LoRA strength recommendations

• Use LoRA strength 0.7-0.8 with about CFG 3-5.

The tags for V1 are as follows:

main tags

jonasbalkar, 1boy, mature male, black hair, blue eyes

outfit tags

shoulder straps, brown jacket, white shirt, leather bracers, brown belt, striped pants, blue pants, boots

The settings I used for my generation testing were 3-5 CFG, 20 steps, DPM++ 2M SDE - Karras on Forge with an adetailer (specifically face_yolov8s).
