Kazuma Sketchbook (Flux)

This model is inspired by the color lithographic works of Oda Kazuma from the early 20th century. Unlike his more famous ukiyo-e (woodblock) artwork, his lithographs gave off a much more Western impressionistic artstyle, which makes sense given his studies under an Austrian lithographer.

Kazuma often drew landscapes and everyday scenes, which is where this model shines. However, it can also do portraits and other things. Kazuma drew most women in a traditional Japanese style, so Asian women may skew towards that look as well.

This Flux version is very new and will likely get much better with updates. I usually use a CFG of 1, as well as a DDIM_UNIFORM Scheduler. No trigger word is required in most cases, but if you need to 'nudge' the model a bit for some reason, you can use the trigger word 'odkzsb'. I recommend:

• DEIS Sampler and DDIM_UNIFORM Scheduler, with no changes to CFG.

All of the source photos came from the NDL public domain gallery on Oda Kazuma, of which you can find some here (it's fun to compare!); However, his monochrome (often sepia toned) lithographs will eventually be adapted into a separate LoRa because they are visually distinct and different from his color lithographs.
