🔶 AETHER ZERO – Introduction

AETHER ZERO embodies the pinnacle of sacred cybernetic design — a divine humanoid android that fuses ultra-futuristic robotics with ceremonial, priest-like iconography. Its smooth black-and-white cybernetic mask glows with red highlights and intricate golden circuitry, creating an aura of otherworldly intelligence. Detailed ornamental components — golden rings, exposed gears, flowing cables, and a radiant halo framing the head — evoke a sense of ritualistic divinity.

This concept thrives on photorealistic clarity, ultra-detailed textures, and a dark, atmospheric backdrop to heighten its ethereal presence. The result is a character that feels simultaneously mechanical and divine, holy yet high-tech, perfectly suited for cinematic illustrations, hyper-realistic renders, and high-resolution concept art.

🔶 Style Guidance (Based on Your Tags)

Primary Style: Hyper-realistic / Photorealistic / Ultra-Detailed

Mood: Sacred, Ethereal, Futuristic, Atmospheric

Lighting: HDR Cinematic, soft yet high-contrast light to sculpt mechanical details

Color Palette: Black & White base with glowing red accents, golden ornamentation, dark atmospheric background

Use Cases: Cover art, cinematic concept designs, ultra-high-resolution renders, mecha-divine characters

This style suits “professional photoshoot”–like portraits, 16K-style renders, and cinematic compositions where every texture, cable, and glow effect is crystal clear.

🔶 Recommended LoRA Settings for AETHER ZERO

Sampling Method ➡️ DPM++ 2M Karras (smooth + photorealistic)

Sampling Steps ➡️ 28–36 steps (higher for maximal clarity)

CFG Scale ➡️6.5–8 (balanced between fidelity and creativity)

Clip Skip ➡️ 2 (common for anime-leaning LoRAs; try 1 for purely photorealistic)

Upscaler ➡️ 4x UltraSharp or 4x AnimeSharp (keeps crisp edges, good for ornaments)

Hires Steps ➡️ 12–16 (extra refinement of details)

Denoising Strength ➡️ 0.3–0.45 (enough to enhance detail without losing structure)

Resolution Size Base ➡️ 768×1152 (portrait) → upscale to 2K–4K or higher (for 16K-style clarity)

🔶 Quick Tips

For maximum detail, render at high resolution with the above hires-fix approach.

If you want the “ceremonial” aura stronger, lower CFG slightly (6–6.5) to allow the LoRA to stylize more.

Experiment with different HDR lighting prompts (e.g., “dramatic rim light,” “bokeh cinematic background”) to accentuate the halo and cables.
