    That’s awesome work! You’re getting better and better at this :)
    It’s too bad the embedding doesn’t seem to work so well, maybe someone else has a solution for this?

      I´ve tried to implement Loras in the Workflow and a face detailer to strengthen the lora effect. the Results are quite interesting (low quality comes from the webm format):

      Trump

      Buscemi

      The workflow is embedded in this picture ( The image is pre Face Detailer)

        Wow, that looks quite consistent! It’s so weird to see Trump happy… and in shape…

        You might want to put the webm files behind spoilers, they take up a lot of space in the feed if you just want to scroll through. At least they do in my browser (Firefox).

      Its all a bit trial and error right now. this animation took about 20 Minutes on my machine. I would love to do some more tests with different models and embeddings or even loras but unfortunately my time for this is somewhat limited.

      I love to do the contests to test new things out :-)

      Visions for the future: If you could get a stable output for the background and the actors (maybe Loras?) you could “play out” your own scenes and transform them via stable diffusion to something great. thinking of epic fight scenes, or even short anmation films.

      This whole stable diffusion thing is extremly interesting and in my opinion a game changer like the introduction of the mobile phone.

        I’m glad you’re enjoying the contests, your contributions are always welcome :)
        Though you might want to consider making a post of your own, your work deserves a lot more exposure than just as a comment.

        The idea of making your own consistent scenes sounds quite impressive, it’s a bit out of my league though. Like you, I have limited time to invest in this hobby, I’ll stick to my images :)
