This newer version of DreamShaper was made in order to achieve 2 things that the previous one had a hard time with:
- depth of field (even in artwork style outputs)
- anime style
While still not being at the level of dedicated anime models, this version is vastly improved and can do anime style artworks much better compared to 2.52. What it can do better then other anime models is to mix the anime artstyle with a more realistic one, so it's able to add reflection and global illumination effect, while still keeping a handpainted look. It can also generate anime screenshots if equipped with LoRA networks.
The depth of field in general is spectacular.
Thanks to Elldreth for the help with evaluating v3.0. It gave me what I needed to improve it to 3.3.
