Update: By request and popular demand, now available in a PonyXL Variant.

Adaptation of my SD15 grimacing LoRA to XL. First attempt at migrating the facial expression series, would love feedback on how well it works comparatively.

Pony Info:

Works really, really well with Hyper, but might need a little more tuning down on "realism" models. In particular you should be careful with embeddings or LoRA's which enhance the "photo" nature of the generations, since together they oversaturate pretty easily. It can be helpful to use adjacent words like clenched, or wincing, rather than the trigger word.

Normal animated pony models can mostly already make this expression, but this LoRA can help preserve it in scenes where there's a lot else going on. Using adjacent words (rather than the trigger) can help mitigate influence on style.

Warning that I never cleaned up this dataset, so the images are a little horny by default unless you prompt them otherwise.
