Hi, everyone! As I haven't found any anime checkpoints that would be able to generate quality images related to ski jumping (it's a quite niche sport, but very popular in countries like Poland, Slovenia and Austria), I decided to create this LoRA to accurately reproduce pose of ski jumper in the air, with skis on their feet. Due to lack of anime-style ski jumping artworks, I had to use Blender to create training dataset. This is my first concept LoRA, so any feedback will be appreciated. I hope you'll like it!

Trigger word: skiflying

Sample prompt: masterpiece, best quality, amazing quality, skiflying, {character_gender}, solo, {character_name}, light smile, midair, legs apart, skis on feet, {ski_color}, sky, clouds, from below

Values in curly brackets have to be replaced as following:

• {character_gender}: either "1girl" or "1boy", the model has been trained mostly on female characters

• {character_name}: name of your character or, if they don't have a well-known name, their characteristics and attire

• {ski_color}: model has been trained on two colors: use "yellow skis" to resemble skis produced by Fischer or "white skis" for skis produced by Slatnar and Augment, other colors might also work (keep in mind that images don't include trademarked logos)

Recommendations:

• Initial image dimensions: 1088 x 960 px

• Upscaling: 2x with denoising strength of ~ 0.40.

• CFG scale: 5 - 7 (or any value that's preferred by your checkpoint)

• LoRA weight: 0.7 - 1.0

  • Lower values (around 0.70 - 0.75) yield more flexible pose and better quality background. I recommend them more, but sometimes they may produce errors, so you'll need a bit more tries to achieve a perfect pose.

  • Higher values (around 0.90 - 1.00) will give better pose stability. However, for some characters, high values aren't recommended, because images are generated with more 3D look and style is less consistent across different characters

Small tip: when training ski jumping in real life, please use a helmet for your own safety, even if characters in model's showcase images don't wear it :D
