<p>I decided to create a style that creates people with anime proportions and faces but with realistic shading just for the fun of it. It works pretty well for cartoonish and surreal images that have a photorealistic aspect. It also seems to work with animals and vehicles as well, though it requires a bit more prompting to get them to work. I will continue updating this style if people like it to refine the look.</p>

Anirealism (Photo-Anime hybrid style)

<p>Initial version of the model trained on SDXL using civitai's training service. The base dataset is 20 images of people created using 3d modeling software and then rendered on photorealistic HDR backgrounds. The trigger word for this version is just "anireal", and it seems to produce pretty consistent results on a variety of models. I recommend using DPM SDE++ 2M Karas on most SDXL models with a cfg of around 7 and about 30 steps, but it seems to work on turbo/lightning models as well at a lower step and cfg count. It works with a strength range of 0.6 to 1.0, but the effect falls off the lower it is. I recommend around 0.9 for the most flexibility while keeping the style consistent.</p>
