The model produces nice effects in the 0.4 - 1.5 strength range. I personally love using 1.5 strength on the Flux Dev GGUF Q4 and 1.2 on the regular Dev model. You can safely use strength 2 and still get decent, though more abstract, results.
I strongly recommend using the keywords "monochrome, greyscale, black and white" if you want a classical Sumi-e effect. Without them, the LoRA can still create a beautiful "Ink Wash" style.
