--This stable 1.0 version has a more dramatic shift in style. Focused on a westernized aesthetic, and displaying a more hand-drawn look. A style I truly love.

You should notice a bolder outline in most images, and a shift away from a digital painting look. It should also be easier to generate desirable images with simple prompts!

--New beta version 0.4 adds a bit more dramatic lighting to most images. Hands slightly improved but needs more work, though there's a lot more consistency when hands are holding items.

--New beta version 0.3 adds more anime stylization with a much greater reduced chance of images being generated without being requested. generation still possible if prompted.

This is an admittedly selfish model, as I am aiming to use this to assist with concept art for an indie game I am working on. I'll be adding some character concept images.

Shoutout to the SD Webui Regional Prompter for allowing separate prompts for multiple subjects. Love it.

Please give any feedback you may have.

Thank you.
