A Textual Inversion Embedding for Stable Diffusion, trained on SD2.1 |
|
|
|
This is an embedding to provide a very loose painterly style consistently to varied subject matter (suprisingly hard to achieve in SD2 without embeddings - subject matter shifts aesthetic far too strongly) |
|
|
|
Prompts for sample images are very straightforward - subject matter by laxpeint. Or painted by laxpeint.You can put in 'by laxpeint' early or late in the prompt, it seems to be effective no matter what. |
|
|
|
For some imagery, it may be important to include 'photography' in your negative prompt, as SD has a strong leand toward it. For instance, the African businessman below would have a fairly photographic suit before adding 'photography' to the negative prompt. |
|
|
|
The style is pretty heavy-handed - a loose painterly alla prima kind of look, but responds well to minimizing it. So in Automatic1111 if you ask for (by laxpeint:0.5) you will get a nice mix of the embedding style and whatever other style you might prompt for, or Stable Diffusion's default, bland appearance for 'painting' prompts. |
|
|
|
Occasionally, if I can't get a certain scene rendered with this embedding (it has a strong tendency to insert people and to be outdoors with sky) I will instead ask default SD2 for an image oil painting, which will usually render unattractive but conceptually on-point, and send that render to an img-to-img where I change "oil painting" to "art by laxpeint" |
|
|
|
You can rename the .pt file to whatever you like to use as your prompt phrase. Just make it unique. |
|
|
|
Also note - all the below sample images were generated using the sampling method DPM++ SDE, but results vary quite strongly with other samplers, such as Euler. Still very painterly, just a bit more soft and atmospheric. |
