Technical Update / We're Cocking😈😈😈 (Patreon)

Hey friends! 🤗

You may have noticed that in the previous post (which I had to delete for reasons you already know 😁), where I mentioned that the fine-tuned image model was released earlier than I expected, I also shared some test images featuring characters-who-shall-not-be-named 😁

What disappointed me a little was that those images absorbed a lot of the fine-tune model's own art style during generation. Since the very beginning of this project, my goal has always been to achieve 100% accuracy to a character's original look and art style. Until recently, that simply wasn't technically possible, especially when we're talking about two very specific characters appearing together in the same image.

But when the new image model was released, I had a feeling it might finally be possible.

For roughly the last 10 days, I've been developing and testing different technical solutions to make it happen. There were a lot of frustrations, a lot of failed attempts, and many moments when things simply didn't work. But through suffering, sweat, tears, and with all the encouragement you've been giving me in the comments, I think today I finally found the perfect workflow that delivers exactly the result I was looking for!

We did it! 🎉🥳

We now have a much more powerful image model, a fine-tune from my favorite creator, and a workflow I've spent the last 10 days building from different tools and techniques to achieve art styles that stay as close as possible to the original source material.

None of this would have been possible without your support. I simply wouldn't have had enough motivation to work this hard and push my brain to its limits. I'm incredibly grateful to have all of you here with me. ❤️

A new chapter of our project begins today! 🚀

And I promise you, we're going to enjoy every second of it! 🤗💜💛
