## About

### What it is

Illustrious XL v2.0-STABLE is an image generation model from OnomaAIResearch. It is a checkpoint of Illustrious XL v2 taken from the last phase of its learning rate schedule, which the maker says behaves a little differently and generates more steadily. The page gives few other technical details.

### Who it suits

It suits people who want to make pictures from a written description, and developers who build on an existing image checkpoint. The Hugging Face record lists 103 fine-tuned and 4 quantized versions made by others.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Design | Illustrators and designers | Describe a scene in plain language and get an image | A written scene turned into a high-res picture on the maker's site |
| Hobby | Image model fans | Compare this checkpoint with the earlier v2 one | Running both on one prompt to see the subtle differences |
| Development | Model fine-tuners | Start their own versions from this checkpoint | One of the 103 fine-tuned versions listed on Hugging Face |
| Software | Platform builders | Pick a quantized copy for lighter setups | One of the 4 quantized versions listed on Hugging Face |

You can skip it if you need a text or code model, since this one only makes images.

### Where to use it

- The maker's own image generation site, which offers high-res output, natural language prompts and presets
- Your own computer, on Windows, macOS or Linux with Python, to download the files
- An image tool that loads checkpoint files, which the page does not name

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Make an image from a description | Designers | An image generated from your prompt |
| Try the stable checkpoint | Model fans | Output that may differ slightly from earlier v2 output |
| Build a fine-tune | Developers | A base checkpoint to train further |

### How to set it up

- Python and pip, for the file download
- Disk space for the checkpoint files
- An image generation tool of your choice, because the page gives no run steps

1. Install the Hugging Face hub package.
2. Download the model files to your computer.
3. Load the checkpoint in your image tool, or skip the download and use the maker's site.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download OnomaAIResearch/Illustrious-XL-v2.0
```

### How to use it

On the maker's site you type a prompt in everyday language, pick a preset if you like and receive an image. With the downloaded files, you point your own image tool at the checkpoint and prompt it there. The page shows no other commands.

### Example

You write "a lighthouse at dusk with gulls overhead" in the prompt box. An image of that scene comes back, and the quality depends on the tool and settings you use.

### For newcomers and experts

This is a picture making model. For a first try, use the maker's site and type a short description of a scene you want. The file download is for people who already run their own image setup.

The v2 model was trained with a cosine annealing learning rate schedule, so the most stable weights sit in its last annealing phase. This upload takes that later point. The maker calls the differences from the earlier checkpoint usually subtle, with better behavior expected from this one, and says separate optimized checkpoints are planned.

You write a prompt in plain language → The checkpoint generates an image → An image comes back

### Good to know

The card gives no benchmarks and no run instructions, so treat comparisons with other models as untested. Downloads in the last 30 days show as 0 in the record.

- License: CreativeML OpenRAIL-M
- Cost to run: no price is named for the files, and the page does not state what the maker's site charges
- Data it reaches: downloads model files from Hugging Face, and the maker's site is a separate service whose data handling the page does not describe
- Not for: the page states no limits beyond its license, so read the license terms before use

- Python and pip, for the file download
