| # 🎨 Krea 2 · Character Design |
|
|
| A Gradio Space that runs the CivitAI **[[KREA 2] Character Design](https://civitai.com/models/2815175/krea-2-character-design)** |
| LoRA on top of **[`krea/Krea-2-Turbo`](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo)** using the |
| diffusers `Krea2Pipeline`. |
|
|
| It generates proper character design sheets — front / side / back views, expression |
| studies, colour palettes and accessories. |
|
|
| ## How it works |
| - The LoRA lives in the companion HF **dataset** (`models/lora/krea2-character-design.safetensors`) |
| and is downloaded into a local `models/lora/` folder on startup. |
| - Inference runs inside a `@spaces.GPU` allocation (**ZeroGPU-ready**). |
| - Every generation (image + prompt + settings) is archived back to the dataset under `generations/`. |
|
|
| ## ⚙️ Required setup |
| This Space depends on **gated** models and a write-enabled token: |
|
|
| 1. **Accept the Krea 2 license** with the account whose token you use: |
| - https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo (and optionally `krea/Krea-2-Raw`) |
| 2. **Add a Space secret** named `HF_TOKEN` = a HF **write** token |
| (needed for the gated base model *and* to save generations to the dataset). |
| 3. **Hardware:** currently set to CPU. Switch to **ZeroGPU** (Settings → Hardware) |
| to actually run the 12B model — it will not generate on CPU. |
|
|
| ## Environment variables (optional) |
| | Var | Default | |
| |-----|---------| |
| | `BASE_MODEL` | `krea/Krea-2-Turbo` | |
| | `DATASET_REPO` | `that-username-is-not-available/Krea-Char-Design-Data` | |
| | `LORA_REPO_PATH` | `models/lora/krea2-character-design.safetensors` | |
| | `SAVE_GENERATIONS` | `1` | |
|
|
| ## Recommended settings (Turbo) |
| - **Steps:** 8 · **Guidance:** 0.0 · **LoRA strength:** 1.0 |
| - Trigger word `Character design` is auto-prepended (toggle in the UI). |
