## ✨ Core features (all versions)

- 👗 High character fidelity with textured clothing and detailed eyes
- 📸 Flexible composition: portraits, full-body shots, dynamic angles

## 🎛️ Recommended settings
| Setting | Value |
|:--|:--|
| **Prompt starter** | Always begin with `anime illustrious, ...` |
| **Strength** | 0.8 |
| **Sampler / clip skip** | Euler · 1 |
| **CFG** | 3 – 5 (Chroma, Qwen, Z-Image Base) · 4.0 (Ernie-Image Base) · 1 (all Turbo variants) |
| **Steps** | 20 – 30 on base models · 8 on Turbo variants · 50 on Ernie-Image Base |
### 💬 How to prompt
Write in **natural descriptive sentences**, not in tags. Open every prompt with `anime illustrious` to activate the style, then describe the scene as you would to a human illustrator.
```text
anime illustrious, a young woman with long flowing silver hair standing on a temple balcony at sunset, soft golden light falling across her face, cherry blossom petals drifting in the wind, detailed embroidered kimono, cinematic composition, shallow depth of field
```
**Tips**
- Always start with `anime illustrious`.
- Describe in sentences and avoid long comma-separated tag strings.
- A lower CFG softens the style, a higher CFG pushes it more strongly.
- 25 or more steps noticeably improve hands and poses on non-Turbo models.
- For Turbo variants (Ernie-Turbo, Z-Turbo), keep the steps low (about 8) and the CFG modest (about 2.5 – 3.0).

The next evolution of the Illustrious look for Qwen-Image. It was trained with **over 40% more data** and longer fine-tuning, so V2 offers richer variety, deeper detail and more stylistic flexibility. Expect sharper eyes and hands, more emotional depth and cleaner multi-character scenes, while keeping the signature painterly Qwen glow. It is perfect for cinematic anime art, character portraits and vibrant storytelling visuals.
**Highlights**
- ✅ Expanded dataset: more than 1,000 new curated anime frames for better diversity
- ✅ Sharper eyes, refined hands, improved textures
- ✅ Balanced color depth and glow (lighting and tone control)
- ✅ Wider expression range for emotional and dynamic scenes
- ✅ Cleaner multi-character compositions in group shots
- ✅ Compact and efficient: about 420 MB with about 3,200 training steps
**Technical details:** dataset base: Chroma-Anime-V3 (expanded) · 1024 px · focus on faces, hands, clothing, lighting and scene harmony.
> **Note from the original page:** the LoRA includes artistic nudity for anatomical accuracy, but it does not produce explicit content on its own.
