Ilustrious-Nova-V3.5-DARE (V3.5 Inverse DARE)

Ilustrious-Nova V3.5 utilizes the DARE (Drop And REscale) technique with a Role Reversal strategy.

The Concept (Inverse Merge)

• BASE (Style & Render): NoobAI XL v1.0. Retains the sharp, cel-shaded anime aesthetic.
• DONOR (Anatomy & Pose): IllumiYume v3.5. Injects superior skeletal structure and pose dynamics.

The DARE Method

We distilled the "Anatomy DNA" from IllumiYume by dropping ~80% of its weights and rescaling the remaining structural data by 5x before injecting it into NoobAI.
