City Sim — Isometric City Builder Aesthetic [Illustrious XL]

<Gallery />

Description

Every city is a toy if you look at it from far enough away.

City Sim is a style LoRA that transforms any scene into an isometric city builder miniature world. Colorful buildings arranged on satisfying grids, tiny cars navigating miniature streets, pedestrians the size of ants going about their business, and the characteristic tilt-shift depth of field that makes everything look like a lovingly crafted diorama.

The Illustrious version renders the city builder aesthetic with more saturated colors, sharper linework, and a stylized quality that leans closer to the hand-painted feel of actual game art. Buildings pop with cartoon vibrancy while maintaining the isometric perspective and miniature scale. If the Flux version looks like a photograph of a model, this version looks like the concept art that inspired the model.
