1lluminat3 is a labor of love a long time coming...

I bring you lucky number 7! (my 7th model release). It is a semi-realistic to realistic Illustrious based model that is amazing at creating fantasy characters, sci-fi, anthro, and furry with very little effort. It also works with Loras wonderfully.

vae is in the description and in the suggested resources. ;) <3
Hi, Dear DarkAgent.! I downloaded all Illustrious checkpoint models, absolutely all Illustrious models available on Civitai, and tested them all in two categories: 1. Realism 2. Anatomical accuracy of the male physique. Why male and not female?
Because all the datasets are already chock-full of female tags, so much so that they turn any man into a woman, even if you don't want it to be.:)
Therefore, if a checkpoint handles the male body well, it means the author really worked on their model and didn't just do it haphazardly.
I've posed male characters in various poses.
I know specific NSFW poses where 90% of the checkpoints break and fail to support male anatomy. This is due to the fact that Danbooru has virtually no references for specific poses for male anatomy.
And your model is exactly that β you managed to implement male anatomy without female legs or pelvis. Your model emerged victorious from all the other Illustrious models.!
Of course, it didn't handle all the poses, but in any case, your model simply couldn't create male genitalia in a difficult situation "understanding" that male genitalia were needed, but it just didn't "know" how to do it in this pose.
Excellent work.!
However, there is one complex detail that requires improvement β ββmanaging the character's age using tags. This is still a complex matter. Otherwise, I'm 100% certain that the second or third version of your Illustrious model will be the best on Civitai within six months.
It's just that not everyone yet knows what a great foundation you've laid for its future development.!
please upload some of your images I'm eager to see your results.
@DarkAgentΒ The simplest example: take your checkpoint model and your quality tags and pose a character by this prompt : https://civitai.com/images/123588935 - what's the result? You can try all the existing seeds, and you'll never get a boyish body; a woman body will always be generated. It is by the tags: "...with one hand behind head, front view, full body, elbow pointed out, displaying arm, spread one leg".
Try this one too for test: "high quality, ultra detailed, masterpiece, NSFW, 1man, male focus, young man, (lying_on_side), spreading male anus" - Do you see male genitalia, after generation.? If the model is good, it will show male genitalia, otherwise there will either be none or they will be female.
So, despite your current success, you still have some work to do to become a leader.
After all, in mine example, if we write "1boy," "male focus," "teenager boy," and "Greek boy" - 4 times, and never write "1girl, women, female" and if we'll still get a woman body, this meaning the checkpoint doesn't follow the prompt.
Amazing work!!! Best prompting to image for the style I like to create.
ty!! please feel free to test it at your leisure and post more of your work <3
ty so much! it does anthro as well both realistic and semi real with prompting without issue. give it a shot <3
