This checkpoint merge was intended to be a rework of Erato, but it became it's own thing. It is a male focused model. The model likes them naked and it likes them muscular. If you are looking for body variety, this is not for you. It can make women, but they will likely not be fully anatomically correct. Unless there are clothes involved, and even then, you might get a penis. All samples posted by me are direct generations in txt2img, some are upsized with img2img, no inpainting.
There was a problem with V2, so I remade the mix, however it is impossible to get to the same point. The essence of Euterpe is still present. Large guys with easy to generate penis.
You do not need heavy prompting to get decent results, for best results:
Use Sampling steps between 25 and 40
Use CFG between 6.5 and 9
Sampling method DPM++ 2M Karras works well, Euler works as well, but leads to blurry results when upsizing. Feel free to experiment
You may not need many negatives, the folowing are recommended:
JuggernautNegative-neg
BadDream
UnrealisticDream
ng_deepnegative_v1_75t
verybadimagenegative_v1.3
If you want clothes on, make sure to mention them or they will likely not appear. this applies to shirts, pants, shoes, socks, etc.
Use the word "penis" in the prompt to get a better shaped penis. Without it you may get a deformed one, sometimes it will just look like it's uncut.
Version two gets some improvements to penis generation, especially after enlarging the image in img2img. Fused penises happen less often than before when there is more than one man. The model is still very horny so it defaults to showing skin, even when prompting some clothing. Same settings as with V2 are recommended but feel free to play around. VAE is baked in, so you do not need to select one unless you want to try a different one.
NOTE: Version 2 does not convert to Diffusers and I am unable to repair the checkpoint. Feel free to use it in Automatic1111 and ComfyUI, but it will not work in InvokeAI. If you merge V2 with another checkpoint, the same thing will happen with the result. I do not want to take it down because it produces some nice outputs.
As the muse of flutes, this merge makes flaccid penises pretty consistently, even if you don't ask for them. By default it wants to make men naked, muscular, and 20 to 30 something.

Go light on the negatives, textural inversions like easynegative, and bad_prompt tend to change things a lot. ng_deepnegative verybadimagenegative and JuggernautNegative seem to work better

The model favors flaccid penises, use LoRA or the word "erect" with higher weights and you might get lucky. Still trying to find the right combination of words to make them go up, but frenulum and glans seem to have an effect.
To get a man older than a 30-something, use the word "mature" and the target age. using clip skip 2 or a different sample might also help.
Although it doesn't always need it, using ADetailer for faces might give you better results.
Erato will generate men and consistent penises most of the time, the ones from Euterpe are better shaped, but they tend to be flaccid, where Erato tends to make them erect more consistently.
Use it to make Furry characters and hairier men.
Euterpe it's it own thing and was born out of the desire to remake Erato from scratch to free up the licensing. It is a product of over 20 different weighted merges. To get it just to the right place.
