The latter seems to produce more stable images. Experiment with your preferred SDXL-derived checkpoint.</p></li><li><p><strong>Use Natural Language:</strong> Write prompts in complete sentences rather than a list of keywords separated by commas to help the model understand context and generate more coherent images.</p></li><li><p><strong>Be Descriptive:</strong> Include specific details about the subject, style, and atmosphere you want to capture. For example, describe the type of creature, its features, the setting, and any particular mood or emotion.</p></li><li><p><strong>No Trigger Word Needed:</strong> The LoRA model applies Brian Froud's style without requiring a specific trigger word. Just describe the scene naturally.</p></li></ol><p></p><h3 id="example-prompt-2gm3fvorr"><strong>Example Prompt</strong></h3><p><strong>Prompt</strong>: A highly detailed watercolor painting of a fantasy creature, resembling a goblin with exaggerated features such as large eyes, long fingers, and a scruffy appearance. The creature has a mischievous expression and wild, purple-tinted hair. It is wearing tattered clothes and is set against a textured, mystical background. The overall style should be reminiscent of a sketchbook illustration with a whimsical, slightly eerie atmosphere. </p><p></p><p>This prompt includes specific elements such as: </p><p><strong>Artwork Type</strong>: Watercolor sketchbook illustration. </p><p><strong>Subject Description</strong>: A goblin-like fantasy creature with distinct physical features. </p><p><strong>Style</strong>: Whimsical and slightly eerie. </p><p><strong>Details</strong>: Tattered clothing, wild hair, and a textured mystical background.</p>
