As I ventured into the world of NovelAI 4.5, I was thrilled to discover the new capabilities it had to offer. The backgrounds and natural language comprehension when it comes to scenes were a game-changer. However, I couldn’t help but miss the classic default art style of NovelAI 4.0 – that smooth, realistic, and slightly desaturated shading that made the generated art so captivating. I’m not alone in this sentiment. Many users have expressed their fondness for the 4.0 default style and wondered if it’s possible to replicate it in 4.5. The good news is that you can indeed achieve a similar art style in NovelAI 4.5 with the right style tags. So, what’s the secret to getting that classic look? Unfortunately, there isn’t a single style tag that can magically transport you back to the 4.0 era. However, by experimenting with different tags and combinations, you can get close to the desired result. One approach is to play around with the ‘realistic’ tag, which can help you achieve a more grounded and desaturated look. You can also try combining it with other tags like ‘detailed’ or ‘high contrast’ to enhance the overall effect. While it may take some trial and error to get the exact look you’re going for, the possibilities are endless in NovelAI 4.5. With a little patience and creativity, you can unlock a wide range of art styles, including that beloved 4.0 default. So, don’t be afraid to experiment and push the boundaries of what’s possible in NovelAI 4.5. Who knows, you might just stumble upon a new favorite art style?
