Based on black-and-white illustrations by Dutch artist Anton Pieck. His style focuses on folklore, fairy tales, history, traditional architecture, and atmosphere. He uses not only Europe as his subject matter, but also the Middle East. This lora is based on his ink drawings (lithographs), so this style is slightly different from his color drawings. He also draws very good monsters.

TIP: Use a strenght of 0.75. Higher can mess up the images, lower will give grey shading.
Use "monster" in the negative prompt if you want to depict a human. Use "japanese anime" in the negative prompt.

The style should be black and white without gray shading. You'll need to adjust the prompt to achieve this: add "monochrome, grayscale" to the positive prompt and "shaded" to the negative prompt.

Trained with 100 black-and-white images with the model AnythingV3. The images in the dataset depict primarily European themes, but there are 20 images with an Arabic theme and a few East Asian images. (Tags to consider: medieval architecture, medieval clothing, castle, medieval city, Arabic clothing, Arabic architecture, fez hat, turban, hijab, djinn, Asian, East Asian architecture).
