Tips

Use `dark background` for more shadows.

Use `bright background` for more contrast.

Use `plain background` for more isolated subject.

Monochrome images generally work well with higher CFG values — higher CFG for more contrast, lower CFG for softer images.

LoRA Strength 0.5 = Less style, more tidy and clean, better coherence.

LoRA Strength 0.80 = More style, mid coherent images.

LoRA Strength 1.0 = Very stylized, more abstract, more impressionistic.

Play around with your CFG settings, monochrome images usually handles a higher CFG than usual. A higher CFG gives more contrast and a lower CFG will make it softer.

Most of the training images are from early 20th century scandinavia (Anders Zorn), so you might run in to some specific bias from that time-era/location.
