ℹ️ Ecchi Deluxe is a captivating digital art style that blends the fluidity of modern anime with a touch of Western comic flair, evoking a sense of ethereal fantasy and vibrant energy. It features stylized characters with luminous, expressive eyes that draw viewers into a world of wonder, often set against dreamlike backdrops of swirling clouds, neon-lit cities, or starry skies. The overall aesthetic radiates a polished, jewel-like sheen, as if each illustration is infused with the glow of hidden magic, inviting creators to craft scenes that feel alive with possibility and poetic grace.

At its core, the style thrives on a palette of intensely saturated hues-electric blues and teals mingling with fiery pinks, radiant greens, and golden accents-like a sunset captured in a prism. Lighting plays a starring role, with soft rim glows and specular highlights that mimic the sparkle of dew-kissed petals or shimmering crystals, creating depth through smooth gradients and subtle blooms. Linework is crisp yet fluid, outlining forms with elegant precision, while shadows blend seamlessly to enhance a sense of motion and luminosity, as if the figures are stepping out from a vivid reverie.

Elements like flowing hair in bold, unconventional colors, intricate jewelry that catches ethereal light, and attire inspired by futuristic or whimsical themes add layers of intrigue. Backgrounds often incorporate abstract patterns, bokeh effects, or environmental details that harmonize with the central subjects, fostering compositions that feel balanced and immersive. This style empowers users to explore imaginative narratives, where every detail whispers tales of adventure and enchantment in a cyber-fantasy realm.

Why I Created My Own Access Control

I have been a creator on Civitai since December 2022. My goal has always been to help make model training, design, and development a sustainable, professional activity, not only for myself, but for other creators too. Supporting people who want to create models professionally is good for users, for creators, for the entire community, including Civitai itself.

Civitai has shared some of this vision and has tried to create ways to support creators. Unfortunately, their current Creators Program has serious problems:

• Civitai was deplatformed by payment processors and operates at a loss.

• The current compensation model pays creators mainly for model usage in the generator.

• Early Access limits paid access to only 15 days, after which models must be free.

• Buzz extraction value has dropped to ~45% of its original worth, making withdrawals basically a 55% fee.

• Bugs and creator feedback are ignored for months, and several team members who used to listen have left.

I believe this system is unfair, harmful, and exploitative. Creators should be able to:

• Sell models without arbitrary time limits.

• Pay a fair platform fee of 15% or less.

Civitai briefly tested a much better system called Clubs in early 2024, which worked well for creators, but it was canceled after backlash from a loud minority that opposed fair creator compensation. I have long hoped Civitai would fix these issues, as I’ve suggested in my articles:

• A Critically Needed Change to Early Access

• Changes Needed When All Checkpoints Become Available in the Generator

• Improvements to Early Access

• New Creators Program: Issues and Solutions

But nothing has changed. Bugs remain unresolved, feedback is ignored, and I’ve lost optimism about Civitai’s willingness to improve.

That’s why I’ve decided to experiment with my own alternative access control system, a fairer way to share models with users who value my work.
