<h3 id="heading-131">January 2024 Update:</h3>Comic Babes v2 is here!A new version featuring merges from<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/2220/babes?modelVersionId=232703"> Alexds9's Babes</a> and<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/16164/icomix"> LostDog's iComix</a> - two terrific models. Plus, Alexds is a terrific member of the SD community. I highly recommend checking out his<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://discord.gg/BKhkwwqK9m"> discord</a>. There are a ton of great creators and resources on there!This version is finally enough of a change from Comic Babes 1 for me to upload. I think the lines are a bit sharper, shorter prompts produce better images vs CB1, and it recognizes quite a few celebrity faces.It does have a tendency to bend women at the waist, but I think that's a result of that pose being so prevalent in comic books. Try different pose/camera prompts if you're getting a lot of "45 degree" ladies. It's also a fairly horny model, so women tend to be a bit top-heavy. More on that below.By default the model will produce 3d, digital painting style images. For a more cartoon/comic look, I recommend (not all at once, try these one or two at a time):Positive prompts to try for less-realistic style: cartoonish style, low contrast, flat color style, restricted color palette, line art style, sketch style, (glossy:.7), etc.If your ladies are too busty, try adding "small breasts, medium size breasts" to your positive prompt, along with "huge breasts" or "large breasts" in the negative. Trust me, they'll still be a solid c-d cup lol.For my negative prompts, I almost always use the<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/7808?modelVersionId=9208"> easynegative</a> embedding, along with a few "must have" prompts. CB2 does very well with minimal negative prompts:Negative prompt: easynegative, 3d, render, photorealistic, huge breastsReally that's it for the negative prompt. If you're seeing things you don't like in your images, try adding one or two negatives at a time.Also, Clip Skip 1 and 2 are a lot of fun to mess with. I like both enough, so I can't recommend one over the other.Inpainting works for me when I'm correcting minor things (eyes, hands, mouth, etc). I haven't tried totally inpainting another image. Your mileage may vary.Here's my typical workflow:Model: Comic Babes v2VAE: whatever you want. I've been using<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/118561?modelVersionId=131654"> Anything</a>Clip Skip: Try 1, 2, or even 3. I usually start with 1, but CS 2 listens to style prompts a bit better I think. For this example I used Clip Skip 1Positive Prompt:(cartoonish style), flat color style, illustration of a woman, walking down the street, long platinum blonde hair blowing in the wind, wearing winter coat and a scarf, looking happy, looking up at the sky, snowing, snow, cold winter day, busy city background, cars, buildings, detailed face, perfect eyesNegative prompt:easynegative, 3d, render, photorealisticSteps: 21Size: 512x832CFG: 7Batch count: 4Try this a few times, tweaking prompts one or two words at a time, until I find one I like.Note: faces might not have much detail at 512x! That's what the next step is for.Send an image I like to img2imgJust resizeSteps: 30512x832CFG: 7Denoise: .3-.4Script: SD UpscaleUpscaler: ESRGAN_4xTile: 64Scale Factor: 2Then inpaint any minor details.Done.You can find this image in my examples!I have a slow machine. I'm actually running on a mac. My average iteration takes 2.5s/it, so I work within the limits of what I have. I'm sure you can produce more and larger images with a better machine. April 2023 Update:First of all, thank you so much for 1,000 likes (and counting)! I had no idea this model would do so well. I just found myself using it all the time and decided to share it. It makes me happy that so many people enjoy it! And, I hope this encourages you to share your ai assets with the community as well!<h3 id="heading-132">Also, I added version 1.0 Baked Vae. It's the same as the original version, just includes the anything v4 vae. I was getting consistent results with this baked version, and decided to share it with the community! Can't wait to see your images!</h3>A model I merged that I just keep coming back to, so I decided to share it.A 50/50 blend of <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/16164/icomix">iCoMix v1</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/2220/babes">Babes v1.1</a>. Recommended you use a vae. I use anything_v4, which is available for download here.<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/7808/easynegative">EasyNegative</a> also works very well with this merge, and minimal negative prompts tend to produce nice results.I'm already working on some other versions that incorporate new versions of iCoMix and Babes.Please share your images! I'd love to see what you create.Thanks to <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/user/lostdog">lostdog</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/user/alexds9">alexds9</a> for their terrific models.

Comic Babes

Very flexible and works well with minimal prompts.
