A checkpoint I made with the intent on getting more of a painterly vibe with some semi-realism as well.
It is based off Initium2.0 (a NoobAI1.1 finetune) by Bluvoll which was merged with a few style GloRAs I made.
The focus of the mix is first and foremost on color and texture to reinforce visual storytelling.
🟡Basic use:
put masterpiece, best quality, painterly at the start of your prompt.
put worst quality, low quality, lowres, bad anatomy, bad hands in negative, add more negative as needed.
🟡Advanced use:
You can add any of the following to your prompt.
color theme, to make the general vibe of your image more toward that color (e.g using red theme will try to make everything more red).
high contrast to reinforce the contrast between dark values and light values.
color theme 1, color theme 2, color contrast to create an image with two contrasty color themes (might require weight tinkering because some are stronger than others).
You can always look at the preview images to get ideas of what is possible.
🟡Recommended settings:
832x1216 resolution (for characters) or 1216x832 resolution (for landscapes).

🟡Others:
