How To Generate Better Illustrations In Stable Diffusion
Generating illustrations in Stable Diffusion isn’t difficult but if you want to create something perfect, you’ll have to follow some tips.
Use The Right Models
The model you choose for generating your illustration is very crucial as it defines how your output image is going to look.
If you’re aiming to generate a specific art style, it’s always best to choose a model that’s trained to generate just that one style.
I’ve already mentioned some great checkpoint and LoRA models for the illustration styles mentioned on this list.
But, here are some more models that are good for generating illustrations in Stable Diffusion.
Recommended Models:
| Model Name | Type | Version |
|---|---|---|
| Stoked Illustration | Checkpoint | SD 1.5 |
| SDVN8-ArtXL | Checkpoint | SDXL 1.0 |
| Illustration Insanity | LoRA | SDXL 1.0 |
| Illustration Style | LoRA | SDXL 1.0 |
| Color Illustration | LoRA | SD 1.5 |
Use Proper Words In Your Prompts
Just like your model, including words in your prompts specific to your desired result go a long way in generating the image you want.
In general, if you’re generating illustrations, using words like “illustration” or “illustration style” will help you get the desired output.
But if you want something more specific, you should include those words in your positive prompts. You don’t have to overcomplicate your prompts by including too many words. Just make sure to include the word of the style you want to generate.
Use Negative Prompts & Embeddings
Always use negative prompts for every image you generate in Stable Diffusion as it helps you weed out the unwanted elements from your output image.
For all the images I’ve generated in the examples above, I’ve used the following negative prompt:
text, watermark, low quality, medium quality, blurry, censored, wrinkles, deformed, mutated text, watermark, low quality, medium quality, blurry, censored, wrinkles, deformed, mutated, embedding:easynegativeYou’ll notice that I’ve included an embedding model in my negative prompt. I always recommend using an embedding in your negative prompts.
Embeddings are very good at filtering out all the bad elements your image could have and also save you from writing long and complex negative prompts.
I recommend using the EasyNegative or FastNegative embeddings in your negative prompts.
