    UPDATE: Illustrious version is now up. Trigger word is the same with the same image set used for the Pony model. Tag training is mostly the same for Illustrious. Just like the Pony version it still likes to give both her ears notched, so put something like "left notched ear" or "one notched ear" and that should help a bit. Using dutch angles and side views in your prompts will also help if you're still having issues with that.

    Zira from the Disney movie The Lion King II: Simba's Pride. There is a Pony model of her already, but I wanted to see how I could tackle this character. I've trained this model with 100 images and only used 1080p screenshots from the movies with only Zira showing in it, so there shouldn't be any other random characters showing up. A lot of the images trained are close-ups of her since a majority of her scenes in solo are like that, but some of them are trained with her full body showing too. Also, the movie gave her a different set of body color and eye color due to the scene setting she was in and I will list the alternate color look and eye look below.

    Positive Prompts: ZiraTKL, furry, feral, feline, pantherine, tan body, tan fur, yellow sclera, red eyes, black pupils, black nose, notched ear, tail, brown tail tuft, claws

    Alt color: orange body, orange fur

    Alt eye color: brown eyes

    Extras: sharp teeth, fangs, angry, clenched teeth, sun, sunset, orange sky

    As always you can give her an anthro look too and the AI will get that version of her well. Sometimes the notched ear will appear for both of her ears, so just a heads up on that.

    She is actually next. There are 3 Illustrious models of her, but I think they all use fan art, so I'll make one to where it's trained only using the he movie footage.

    @FurkamiDood Yeah! I really want a "on model movei verision" of her, Hope you can make it happen :3

    @Rawerr As long as I train it with only screencaps from the movie, then it'll be on model. If you mix it with fan art, then that's why you might not get the stylized look from the movie.

    I really love how well the loras you make match their original art style is there a chance you can do Vitani from the lion king 2?

    Oh and btw, have you considerd doing 2 in one loras? like let's say Simba & Nala, Simba and Shenzi, etc.

    Thank you. I could Vitani at some point. And I haven't thought about doing a 2 in 1 lora. Usually with those both characters need to be within the same frame or I need to photoshop them together within 1 image which would take way too long if I wanted character style accuracy from the movies. Simba & Nala can definitely be done but idk about Simba and Shenzi.

    Could be the checkpoint your using? Or if you're combining multiple loras it could make it come out horrible too. Otherwise I'm not sure. I don't have this issue. I tend to do 40 steps instead of 30.

    simbjjimufsa546 Ah maybe change the checkpoint then. I'd suggest using the Illustrious version of this lora too. It just has a better time generating stuff compared to Pony.
