Ether Blu Mix - Ether Blu Mix 6

* Version 6 Update:

Hey everyone,

Ether Blu 6 is focused on capturing some of the "clean" and slightly animated feeling of Ether Blu 4 while retaining the vibrant colors and painterly texture of Ether Blu 5. I also looked to improve its lighting as I enjoyed the atmospheric light seen in TMND and Lunar Radiance.

More detailed changes:

Base model has changed from

AOM3 + Counterfeit3

to

Counterfeit3 + Silicon29Dark

• AOM3's NSFW aspect felt unnecessary as Ether Blu isn't NSFW focused. Silicon29 offers similar flexibility while having better low-light performance.

-

Pastel Mix, Basil Mix, and Ayoni Mix have been replaced with AW Painting 1.1 and Lunar Radiance. Pastel Mix was removed as it felt redundant as I'm utilizing the LORA's it was created with. Basil and Ayoni were removed to utilize models that felt more '2D' focused. In particular, AW Painting for the faces, Lunar Radiance for lighting.

The added LORA's look to compliment and enhance Ether Blu's pastel, painterly feel as well as its new lighting style.

The VAE is baked (finally) as I kept seeing generations with the wrong VAE applied.

Thanks everyone, busy at the moment and will update everything soon.

Happy holidays! 🎉

📘 Model Merging Info - v6

I have no training or real knowledge of machine learning. I merged the model using the information provided on WarriorMama777's AOM model page as well as the info from these Rentrys. I very arbitrarily mixed the UBM weights of each model, modifying the values with trial and error until I was visually satisfied with it.

I utilized the SuperMerger extension for AUTO1111 by hako-mikan.
