StoryBookRedmond: Children's Storybook LoRA for SDXL

SDXL LoRA that generates children's storybook illustration images with a consistent hand-drawn look.

About this model

StoryBookRedmond is a LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) for Stable Diffusion XL 1.0, fine-tuned by ArtificialGuyBR on a large dataset to produce children's storybook illustrations. The model is designed to give generated images the look of a modern picture book: expressive characters, soft backgrounds, and a cohesive art style across generations — useful for book mockups, concept pages, and kid-focused illustration work.

It uses SDXL 1.0 (stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0) as its base model and is released under the CreativeML OpenRAIL-M license. To activate the style, include the trigger word KidsRedmAF in the prompt. The author also notes you can steer the result with plain style tags such as "detailed", "minimalist", "colorful", or "black and white".

The author recommends running a few generations when a result isn't perfect, since the LoRA sometimes needs more than one attempt. It is distributed as a diffusers-compatible LoRA with a text-to-image pipeline tag, and can also be tested free in the ArtificialGuyBR demo LoRA Space on HuggingFace. Published August 2023, it has gathered over 1.6K downloads and 125 likes on Civitai.
