Different sampling methods & models (Patreon)

I've been experimenting the past few days with various models & sampling methods. My favorite anime models are grapefruit and anything v4. Sampling methods produce slightly different results with various successes. The above images were all produced by using the same prompt.

I am a huge fan of Euler a, an ancestral sampling with Euler method steps. This one almost always produces nice results (1st and 2nd pic).

There are two more sampling methods that I like using:

• DPM++ 2M Karras (3rd pic and 4th pic)
• DDIM (4th & 5th pic)

These sampling methods are producing the best results for anime pictures, and the others are almost always inferior.
