concept art

[allroundgoodegg]

Apologies for being new to this, bit I'd like to generate art that looks like concept artists created it for movies and video game characters / environments. Tried the "conceptual art" style and it seems to do nothing from my testing. How do I achieve that "broad brush photoshopped" look?

To be honest, I've tried styles like Line Art, Comic and Watercolor on the same simple prompt and none of them seem to do anything. What am I doing wrong?

[lllyasviel]

uncheck existing styles or write style in prompt to balance multiple styles

Can confirm after much testing: the Fooocus V2 and Fooocus Sharp styles both prevent other styles from happening. Tested with SAI Pixel Art and with Origami (both very easy to see if they're working).

So if I want to get that rough, painterly concept art style, how do I get that? I'm trying combinations of things, but everything is just too polished, not showing the brush strokes enough. I'm attaching examples of what I mean by "rough painterly concept art".

I use an Artfull Lora at .7 and crank guidance up to 8. I'm away from my PC right now, but I can get you the link if you like to the Lora.

I would appreciate that. Thank you.

Hi, some of these looks "rough painterly concept art". what kind of "rough" you need? if u have an example u may try image prompt. or perhaps find a lora, or may be try that "watercolor" style?

[allroundgoodegg]

Can input images be used to suggest style as well as a subject? I had no idea!

[allroundgoodegg]

It's this kind where you can see the brushstrokes used in Photoshop. Those quick-and-dirty early stage concept images used for environment work a lot.

if this is not what u want then perhaps you need to try loras

[allroundgoodegg]

That helps - thank you. Trying to figure how to add loras but I can't find instructions on the front page of how to do that. You can tell I'm new! Downloaded one which may help from civitai. It's a single .pt file that I put in the models>loras folder but it's not showing up in the interface as a lora option.

oh ? You can put SD1.5 Loras ? or only SDXL loras ? i thought on ly those sdXL Loras can be used.
