description: <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: </strong>This is my first attempt at training for Stable Diffusion. I consider this model a prototype, so you may encounter some odd results and/or other bugs during use. That said, thank you in advance for all for your patience, as well as for any help/improvements you may be able to provide!</p><h3 id="quick-details:-kqh0bym0q"><strong>QUICK DETAILS:</strong></h3><ul><li><p>ScytheXL is a simple SDXL LoRA made to generate scythes and characters holding scythes using Stable Diffusion's SDXL 1.0 models.</p></li><li><p>This LoRA was trained on <strong><em>SDXL 1.0 Base</em></strong>, and then two versions with different desired strengths/weaknesses were merged into each other to stabilize the resulting output.</p></li><li><p>As such, this LoRA seems to work on most realistic models of <em>base </em>SDXL 1.0 heritage I've tried. But unrealistic SDXL 1.0 models produce some results that are... interesting.</p></li><li><p>I trained this LoRA on the <strong><em>base SDXL VAE</em></strong>, so I've been using that during testing. Although I prefer <a rel="ugc" href="https://civitai.com/models/455138/sharpspectrumvaexl">Sharp Spectrum</a> and <a rel="ugc" href="https://civitai.com/models/199948?modelVersionId=224985">Flatpiece</a> VAEs over the base SDXL VAE.</p></li><li><p>It is imperative that you use the trigger word or phrase if you want this LoRA to work, these being <em>"</em><strong><em>scyth3</em></strong><em>"</em> and <em>"</em><strong><em>holding a scyth3</em></strong><em>"</em>. <em>Very important!</em></p></li><li><p>The strength settings I used varied by model but, typically, sat between 0.65 to 0.85. Usually <strong><em>0.7 </em></strong>or <strong><em>0.75</em></strong> works <em>perfectly</em>. But I varied this more for unrealistic models.</p></li><li><p>I went through pretty much every sampler available in Forge during testing. This LoRA performed well all around. So my sampler recommendation is <strong><em>"dealer's choice"</em></strong>.</p></li><li><p>CFG isn't something I normally play with, so I've just been going between CFG 6 and CFG 7. Another <strong><em>"dealer's choice"</em></strong>, if that's something you use.</p></li><li><p>Hires Fix and ADetailer were used with sample images. I used Foolhardy's <a rel="ugc" href="https://civitai.com/models/147759/remacri"><strong><em>Remacri</em></strong></a> at 2x with Denoise at <strong><em>0.39</em></strong> for HRFix, and then ADetailer on face and hands.</p></li></ul><h3 id="the-story:-iwhio8hsu"><strong>THE STORY:</strong></h3><p>This project started in June 2024 while working on another Stable Diffusion related project involving a character that was meant to wield a scythe. A plain, traditional, reaper-esque scythe. I started with some GPT-infused, next level prompt engineering, and then I tried looking for LoRA models and Embeddings meant to generate scythes, but none existed. Eventually I came to the realization this just couldn't be done with the tools available. At least, not yet.</p><p>With a group of 20 awful photos pulled from Google, I started training LoRAs with pretty terrible results, but just okay enough to develop a viable dataset with. After a lot of (re)training and grinding, I ended up with 100 unique, high quality images in total. With that new dataset, I started training variations of this ScytheXL LoRA, in an effort to find which combination produced the best LoRA, until I finally settled on the LoRA I've uploaded here.</p><p>However, this LoRA model is more of a <em>prototype </em>than a beta, one that is very much in its infancy. Therefore, <strong><em>YMMV</em></strong>. But <em>I do want to thank everyone</em>, in advance, for all the support and patience they afford me and my model!</p><p>I wish you all the very best and lots of AI fun!</p><p>- <a rel="ugc" href="https://ko-fi.com/domiluci"><strong><em>Dom</em></strong></a></p>
