This model is an IlustriousXL extension of my previous PonyXL models. It retains a high creative elasticity typical of IlustriousXL models but with a high degree of realism. It accepts complex prompts and high weights without creating artifacts or collapsing as long as you don't overdo it. It accepts Pony and SDXL LoRAs well or at least the majority. In any case I recommend not overdoing it with LoRAs to avoid incurring artifacts.
