Models / NoobAI XL

Generate anime and illustrated avatars with NoobAI XL

The illustration model in Likna's lineup — an SDXL base trained on Danbooru/e621 tags, so it draws anime and illustrated characters natively instead of fighting a photoreal prior. Trained avatars run on it the same way they run on FLUX. See sample output, pricing, and how it compares below.

FAQ

What is NoobAI XL best for?

Anime and illustrated output. It's an SDXL model trained on booru-tagged illustration data, so drawn styles are its native output rather than something coaxed out of a photoreal model.

Should I pick it instead of FLUX.1 dev for photos of myself?

No — for a photorealistic likeness of a real person, FLUX.1 dev holds identity far better. Pick NoobAI XL when you want the avatar drawn, not photographed.

How do I prompt it?

With comma-separated tags rather than sentences ("1girl, solo, silver hair, city at night"), since that's how its training captions are written. Likna's prompt assistant handles the conversion for you.

Does it support Face Lock?

No — Face Lock (PuLID) runs on the FLUX family only. On NoobAI XL, character consistency comes from your trained avatar itself.

How much does an image cost?

2 credits, rendered on Likna's own GPU by default — the same trained-avatar rate as FLUX.1 dev. Boost sends the same render to fal.ai's cloud instead for 3 credits total.
