Photonic Illusion V4 is my 3rd and possibly final illustrious checkpoint. This one has NoobAI merged, a few quality improvement LoRA's are baked in, it covers more prompting styles and I have added even more finetuned male data set training material and this one is much faster whereas my previous version I recommended 25-30 steps this one only needs 15 maybe 20 steps. I personally find 15 is all you need unless you have a lot of LoRA's in your prompt you may need the extra 5 steps to really flesh it out but a straight up prompt or just a couple LoRA's and 15 is perfect.
V3 is on here and V2 is exclusive to MageSpace and can be found here
