Prompt: masterpiece, high quality, morrigan from darkstalkers, (((color pencil sketch))) Looks good, but a bit too light so let me remove "light" from the prompt and try one more time, also notice my resolution settings were a bit off. Prompt: masterpiece, high quality, morrigan from darkstalkers, (((light color pencil sketch))) a Cool trick as well to add (((light color pencil sketch))) but I tend to do that only when the default isnt quite producing the correct result yet because it could start lightening up the image. So what I'll do before ever touching gimp is put more emphasis on the pencil in the prompt. Here is the result:ĭoesn't look too bad, although still feels a bit too inked for me. It probably goes without saying, but make sure you have the AnythingV3 VAE loaded and active before generating. As there isnt much Prompts going on the CFG I keep default, here for some reason I set it to 9 which shouldnt really be needed. If I want it a bit more accurate to the pic then 4.5 or 4 or below would do that. De noising I keep at 5 if I want SD to take some creative liberties as it tends to sometimes make cool additions or changes. These are the settings I use, this is actually some of the Rare Img2Img times that a lower Step rate works because sometimes setting it high will cause StableDiffusion to fill colors instead of drawing them in with pencil. Negative Prompt: ((((ugly)))), (((duplicate))), ((morbid)), ((mutilated)),, extra fingers, mutated hands, ((poorly drawn hands)), ((poorly drawn face)), (((mutation))), (((deformed))), blurry, ((bad anatomy)), (((bad proportions))), ((extra limbs)), cloned face, (((disfigured))), (((more than 2 nipples))), out of frame, ugly, extra limbs, (bad anatomy), gross proportions, (malformed limbs), ((missing arms)), ((missing legs)), (((extra arms))), (((extra legs))), mutated hands, (fused fingers), (too many fingers), (((long neck))), obese, overweight, pregnant, plump, male focus, genderswap, furry, bald, fat, prosthesis, prosthetic, artificial limb, crossed eyes, lowres, worst quality, low quality, jpeg artifacts, loli, 1boy, shota, asymmetrical breasts, ((tiny breasts)), ((small breasts)),, anorexic, weak, uneven sized eyes, (short arms) Prompt: masterpiece, high quality, morrigan from darkstalkers, pencil sketch If I'm doing something like a monster or a mecha like a Gundam then I ease up on the negative prompts as they tend to have some of the things in the Negative prompts. So for this I just loaded my standard Negative Prompt, but I didnt even have bad_prompt embedding loaded but only realized after I made the screenshots. (I usually keep GIMP still open to make minor change things as I'm doing IMG2IMG but this will do for now). Done with the GIMP part, go ahead to export the Pic and drag and drop it in Automatic1111 webgui and load the AnythingV3 model.Then set the layer mode to "Color" (There were two color options in GIMP so I chose HSL Color as it gave me a better look). Make a duplicate of the first color layer and move it to the top.But generally the Pin Light needs to be low and the Color Dodge needs to be high. These settings you may want to fiddle with to get your desired pencil "ish" look. Set the Pin Light Opacity to 20% and set the Reverse Gaussian Blur to 80%.

Make another duplicate of the Grayscale layer and move the layer ABOVE the reverse/gradient gaussian blur layer.

For now just use the default amount Gaussian Blur, you can always experiment with different ones later. (Gaussian Blur settings works differently in each editing program, but generally it either a little or a lot. Add Gaussian Blur Filter to the reversed gradient layer.Duplicate the Grayscale and Reverse the Gradient,.

Duplicate the pic, then turn it into grayscale.
#COOL PENCIL ART FREE#
Even Photopea that is free online browser based Normally I do this in Clipstudio Paint, but I used GIMP in this tutorial because it's free and can follow the steps basically on any image editing software. With this workflow you will have total control over how the pencil sketch gets generated.
#COOL PENCIL ART HOW TO#
So I did a bit of digging how to consistently get this pencil effect and found a workflow that works every time. After retrying I was able to accomplish it again with Princess Toadstool but didn't seem to work quite well for any other pic. Some people commented and PM'd on what setting I used to accomplish this as they werent quite getting the pencil scribble look I got with this one of Princess Peach. So few days ago I posted this pic that did with IMG2IMG in a discussion on anime pencil thread.
