Art Style Type

This SREF style blends American nostalgic illustration with Pop Art elements, featuring a distinct mid-20th century commercial illustration style mixed with Neo-expressionist brushwork. It belongs to these categories because of its bold linework, vibrant contrasting colors, and emotionally charged hand-drawn quality that maintains a vintage feel while incorporating modern artistic expressiveness.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent characteristic of this style is its energetic brushstrokes and watercolor-like bleeding effects, with free-flowing yet precise lines. The color palette primarily uses primary colors like red, blue, and yellow, creating bold contrasts full of vitality. Backgrounds often feature splatter and drip effects, adding spontaneity and artistic flair. The overall effect combines hand-crafted texture while maintaining clear subject representation. What makes it impressive is how it perfectly balances casualness with precision, and nostalgia with contemporary sensibility.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Watercolor Splatter: Adds more fluid and natural background effects, enhancing the artistic feel and improvisational quality
  • Bold Outline: Strengthens the expressiveness of character and object contours, elevating the overall vintage comic style
  • High-Saturation Contrasting Colors: Further intensifies the visual impact and emotional expression, making the image more vibrant and lively

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for music album covers, fashion magazine illustrations, retro-themed posters, cultural event promotions, youth clothing brand visual designs, and any creative projects needing to combine nostalgic feelings with modern energy. It appeals to younger audiences while evoking collective memories and emotional resonance with past eras.

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2
