Pastel Mix is a stylized latent diffusion model designed to generate high - quality, highly detailed anime - style images with just a few prompts.

🚀 Quick Start

Update Logs

• [1/27/22]: I uploaded the model in CivitAI! -> CivitAI Link. I'd appreciate the ratings, thank you!
• [2/2/22]: Uploaded a lora version.

Pastel Mix is a stylized latent diffusion model. It aims to imitate pastel - like art and combines LORAs to create a great mix. It supports danbooru tags for image generation. For example, you can use prompts like masterpiece, best quality, upper body, 1girl, looking at viewer, red hair, medium hair, purple eyes, demon horns, black coat, indoors, dimly lit

📦 Installation

How to download with Git

git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/andite/pastel-mix

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

This model can be used just like any other Stable Diffusion model. For more information, please have a look at the Stable Diffusion. You can also export the model to ONNX, MPS and/or FLAX/JAX.

from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline
import torch

model_id = "andite/pastel-mix"
pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id, torch_dtype=torch.float16)
pipe = pipe.to("cuda")

prompt = "hatsune_miku"
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]

image.save("./hatsune_miku.png")

Advanced Usage

We support a Gradio Web UI to run pastel - mix:

So what the hell is the 'better - vae' version?

I merged the pastel - waifu - diffusion.vae.pt inside the model so you don't have to set up the vae anymore.

Life is much easier now since you don't have to download the vae and set it up, right?

What is pastelmix - lora.safetensors?

It's a lora version which is made from extracting the loras from pastel - mix using a script that is similar to add - difference method.

Script Reference

Guide

For the settings or parameters, I recommend using these settings.

Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karras
Steps: 20
CFG Scale: 7
Hires. Fix: On
Upscaler: Latent (MUST!)
Hires Steps: 20
Denoising Strength: 0.6

I prefer using 0.6 since it's the sweet spot of this model. If you can find a better setting for this model, then good for you lol.

Latent upscaler is the best setting for me since it retains or enhances the pastel style. Other upscalers like Lanczos or Anime6B tends to smoothen them out, removing the pastel - like brushwork.

Please use the VAE that I uploaded in this repository. It is from the Waifu Diffusion team. Credits to haru for letting me rename and upload it.

Tip (Optional)

Putting mksks style in the beginning of the prompt can further influence the pastel - like style and make the output better. It is optional though, so it's up to you. You don't really need it.
