The popular "Hotaru's LoRA series" (for SD1) is now available for SDXL! More will be released gradually on CivitAI (already available on HuggingFace).

This LoRA reproduces (-_-) shaped eyes, which is familiar in Japanese manga or anime.

This LoRA is compatible with Pony / Animagine / Illustrious based checkpoints, but Pony based checkpoints will make better results. Some checkpoints may have less compatibility.

This LoRA is suitable for 2D-2.5D illustrations only and not suitable for photorealistic checkpoints. My "Breed" series checkpoints will make good outputs. Sample images are generated with "Breed" series listed on "Suggested Resources" section.

SD1 version is also available.

Usage

It works by simply enabling LoRA. No extra prompts are necessary, but do not use eye color prompts. And, closed eyes prompt may help to make better results.

If the eye shape is not good (especially using with Illustrious or Animagine based checkpoints), try increasing LoRA weight to 1.5-2.0.

More various other SD1/SDXL LoRA's and checkpoints are available on my HuggingFace repository or CivitAI models list. Please check it out.

CAUTION : Some sample images' prompt is using NegPiP extension for minus weight.
