👑 KING2-IMAGE — SDXL LoRA

A Stable Diffusion XL LoRA (rank 16) fine-tuned for majestic, high-quality text-to-image generation with a distinctive aesthetic.

---

📋 Overview

KING2-IMAGE is a Stable Diffusion XL LoRA adapter (rank 16) trained on a 3,000-image subset of the jackyhate/text-to-image-2M dataset. It is designed to produce visually striking, detailed, and aesthetically refined images — from majestic royal scenes and cinematic landscapes to fantasy art and photorealistic portraits.

Built as part of the KING2 AI ecosystem, this model inherits the "royal" essence of the KING2 brand, excelling at generating images with grandeur, rich color palettes, and epic compositions.

🚀 Usage

Basic Inference

import torch
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline, AutoencoderKL

# Optional but recommended: the fp16-safe VAE used during training
vae = AutoencoderKL.from_pretrained(
    "madebyollin/sdxl-vae-fp16-fix",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)

# Load the base SDXL pipeline
pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
    vae=vae,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    variant="fp16",
    use_safetensors=True,
)
pipe.to("cuda")

# Load the KING2-IMAGE LoRA adapter
pipe.load_lora_weights("RASHID778/king2-image")

# Generate
prompt = "a futuristic royal palace at sunset, highly detailed, 8k, golden hour"
image = pipe(
    prompt,
    num_inference_steps=30,
    guidance_scale=7.5,
    height=768,
    width=768,
    negative_prompt="blurry, low quality, distorted, ugly, bad anatomy, watermark, text",
).images[0]

image.save("king2_output.png")

LoRA Weight Configuration

You can adjust the LoRA influence scale for finer control:

pipe.load_lora_weights("RASHID778/king2-image", adapter_name="king2")
pipe.set_adapters(["king2"], adapter_weights=[0.85])  # scale from 0.0 to 1.0

---

🕴️ Stickman Adapter

The repo also ships a second LoRA adapter at stickman/pytorch_lora_weights.safetensors — a style/pose adapter that makes SDXL draw stick-figure illustrations across a wide range of human poses and actions (run, jump, kick, sit, climb, dance…).

Trained on 10,000 curated 1024×1024 stick-figure frames derived from HumanML3D motion sequences (quality-scored, de-duplicated, captioned from the official HumanML3D texts).

pipe.load_lora_weights(
    "RASHID778/king2-image",
    weight_name="stickman/pytorch_lora_weights.safetensors",
    adapter_name="stickman",
)

image = pipe(
    "a stickman doing a backflip, simple black and white stick figure line drawing",
    num_inference_steps=30,
    guidance_scale=7.0,
).images[0]

Prompting tips:

• Keep the trigger phrasing seen in training: …, simple black and white stick figure line drawing.
• Best at single-figure body poses/actions; multi-figure scenes are out of distribution.
• LoRA scale 0.8–1.0 (lower toward 0.6 if the pose collapses), guidance 6–8, 25–35 steps.
• Style is fixed: thick-stroke skeleton on white background — no head circle, colors, props, or backgrounds.

⚠️ The stickman adapter's training data derives from HumanML3D (AMASS/HumanAct12). Treat it as research use; review upstream licensing before commercial deployment.

Inference Providers (Zero Setup)

You can run the LoRA without any local GPU via fal.ai:

# pip install fal-client  (and set FAL_KEY)
import fal_client

result = fal_client.subscribe(
    "fal-ai/lora",
    arguments={
        "model_name": "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
        "loras": [{
            "path": "https://huggingface.co/RASHID778/king2-image/resolve/main/pytorch_lora_weights.safetensors",
            "scale": 0.85,
        }],
        "prompt": "cosmic king on a throne of stars, nebula background, majestic, epic fantasy",
        "negative_prompt": "blurry, low quality",
        "image_size": "square",
        "guidance_scale": 7.5,
        "num_inference_steps": 30,
    },
)
print(result["images"][0]["url"])

You can also use the Inference Providers widget on this model page (powered by fal-ai) with zero setup.

⚠️ Limitations

• Resolution Constraint — Trained at 768×768. Higher resolutions (>1024) may produce artifacts or quality degradation.
• Synthetic Training Data — The training subset consists of AI-generated images, so the adapter inherits the visual style (and any artifacts) of the generator used to build the source dataset.
• Domain Specificity — Fine-tuned primarily for majestic, royal, and fantasy aesthetics. May not perform optimally on unrelated domains (e.g., modern tech, medical imagery, abstract minimalism).
• Bias & Representation — As with all generative models trained on web-scale data, the model may reflect biases present in the training dataset. Use responsibly and critically evaluate outputs.
• Arabic Prompts — The model was trained primarily on English captions. Arabic prompts may produce less reliable results; transliteration to English is recommended.
• Not a Checkpoint — This is a LoRA adapter only. The base SDXL model must be loaded separately (requires ~12 GB VRAM for full pipeline).
• Safety — The model has not been fine-tuned for safety filtering. Always use appropriate NSFW/content filters in production deployments.

---

🔬 Technical Notes

• The adapter was trained using the Diffusers train_text_to_image_lora_sdxl.py script.
• All checkpoints use .safetensors format for secure and fast loading.
• Xet storage is used on Hugging Face for efficient large-file hosting.
• Available for live inference via the fal-ai Inference Provider on Hugging Face.
