MIKAN Pony v0.9

1. Concept: "Balanced East Asian Realism"

MIKANPonyv0.9 is a custom Pony Diffusion V6 XL merge model designed to achieve a balanced combination of photorealistic rendering, East Asian facial aesthetics, and strong prompt responsiveness.

Built using a Differential Merge Framework, the model preserves the compositional flexibility and expressive capabilities of Pony while introducing enhanced skin rendering, refined facial structures, and improved lighting realism.

The primary objective of MIKAN_Pony is to provide stable generation of realistic East Asian characters without sacrificing the creative versatility that has made Pony Diffusion popular among creators.

2. Technical Methodology

This model was constructed using a custom differential merge script based on SDXL Base 1.0 as a neutral anchor model.

Instead of performing a traditional weighted merge, MIKAN_Pony calculates the differential contribution of each source model relative to SDXL Base and then reconstructs a new model through weighted delta summation.

Merge Composition

Anchor Model

—SDXL Base 1.0

Primary Base Model

—Pony Diffusion V6 XL

Differential Weights

—waiREALMIX_v11.safetensors : 40%
—5moonPonyAsian_v10.safetensors : 25%
—ponyLoraLover_v10.safetensors : 15%
—waiDOLLCN_v40.safetensors : 10%
—tsubakiMix_v15.safetensors : 5%
—unholyDesireMixFoolS_v60.safetensors : 5%

Differential Merge Logic

Result = SDXLBase + Σ((Modeln - SDXLBase) × Weightn)

By reconstructing the final model from weighted deltas rather than direct parameter averaging, MIKAN_Pony aims to preserve desirable traits from each source model while reducing unwanted cross-model interference.
