Intricate Living Metallic Sculptures

This LoRA is an odd one. I trained it quite a while back, and when I tested it, it seemed to do very little. I scrapped it, but it stayed forgotten on my hard drive. It was supposed to make these neat metallic ribbon bas-relief sculptures out of animals and objects, but it tended just to make the subject of the generation slightly more metallic looking than what Flux generated with the same prompt.

I found it recently when cleaning up my drive and decided to give it another shot before I deleted it. I tested it with new prompts and accidentally left Best of Flux selected as a style in Forge. I do not know how to explain it, but the LoRA worked precisely as desired when used with Best of Flux simultaneously!

You can see below how the LoRA alone doesn't work, but the two LoRAs combined work correctly.

Usage

To use the most recent version of the LoRA, use the following settings:

• You have to use it with Best of Flux Version 3.0. Use BoF at full strength.

• Trigger word: dimtlsclptr as in "A highly detailed silver dimtlsclptr of a dragon"

• Other tokens that work well: metallic ribbons, metal sculpted, gleaming, intricate patterns. Animal-type subjects seem to work well.

• Prompt Structure: Look at my prompts. They follow this structure: describe your subject using color and the above keywords, then describe the background the sculpture is set against. Describe the decorative elements and the frame or border.

• Lora Strength: A strength between 0.8 and 1.2 is recommended; I found that 1.0 worked well.
