PMAM (Phred Made A Merge)

Disclaimer: I have neither the talent, time nor the resources to train a model (I have a potato for a computer)

This is one of my first attempts at a merge favoring semi-realism, with an ultimate goal of blending photorealism, anime, and western animation for a style that “softens” reality.

This attempt starts with Rev Animated v1.2.2 (Thanks to s6yx), at a ratio of 0.80 mixed (through ComfyUI) with epiCRealism (Thanks to epinikion). I then crammed in Style03 from anime style box (thanks, kozue ) to further define the style of animation to build the base of model’s style.
