Raehoshi Illust XL

an enhanced iteration built upon the Illustrious XL model. It aims to elevate the visual style by addressing some of the limitations in the original, such as oversaturation and artifact noise. While these issues are not entirely eliminated, noticeable improvements have been made. The goal is to deliver a more polished, balanced output while staying true to the strengths of the base model.

Why Early Access?

Early access helps keep the project going. I don’t have my own GPU, so all training is done through rented cloud GPUs and that gets pretty expensive. By getting early access, you’re directly supporting the development of my models and helping me keep improving them. If you'd like to support me further, you can also buy me a coffee on Ko-fi! Every bit of help means a lot and keeps the future updates coming.
