h2.Going to sleep when it's raining outside

This was an interesting one to make because I had to overcome the issues with making night look like... well, actual night.

Even if I prompted for something like "low light, night, dim, dark" the model would still generate a pretty bright picture which looked more "rainy day but with very dark clouds" than "night". I tried using some popular LoRAs such as "Smooth night" and "Summer night" "from here":https://civitai.com/models/264290/styles-for-pony-diffusion-v6-xl-not-artists-styles but no matter what settings I've tried they did affect the style significant enough for me to not like it - even with loractl tricks applied.

Then I gave the "'Low Light for Pony (Variant)' LoRA":https://civitai.com/models/623662/low-light-for-pony-variant?modelVersionId=697211 a shot and I liked it much more than the previous LoRAs however the picture turned out to have quite an unpleasant blue tint that still had to be fixed or at least improved.

Discovering color presets (LUTs) in G'MIC plugin for Krita made me excited and after experimenting a bit I came up with the following combination of LUTs sequentially applied to this image:
1. Lutify.me / Herderite -- 35% strength; this one almost completely eliminated the nasty blue tint and made tones of gray much better.
2. Alex Jordan / Blue Dark -- 55% strength; yes it introduced a tiiiiiny amount of the blue tint back to the picture but it did a really good job at darkening the overall scene. Funny thing about this LUT is it barely affecting pink colors so I had to play around with Exposure tool against character's ear to make it match the brightness of the scene.
