Art Style Type

This SREF style clearly blends elements of flat illustration, neo-retro, and cyberpunk aesthetics. It adopts an approach similar to comics or graphic novels but combines it with the precision of modern digital art. The style carries strong mid-20th century illustration influences while adding contemporary color treatments and compositions, forming a unique retro-futuristic aesthetic. It belongs to these categories due to its clean, defined linework, bold yet limited color contrasts, and the frequent juxtaposition of natural and technological elements.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this SREF style include:

  • A restricted yet distinctive color palette primarily using turquoise blues, pinks, and dark tones to create strong visual contrast
  • Flat but detail-rich illustration style with minimal shadowing but textural layering
  • Clean, precise linework that defines clear shapes and silhouettes
  • Surrealistic scene construction that unexpectedly combines different elements
  • Strong emotional atmosphere with a sense of quietude and subtle mystery

This style is impressive because it successfully merges modern digital art techniques with retro aesthetics to create visual experiences that feel both familiar and alien.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Retro sci-fi: Enhances the temporal displacement feeling and the visual quality of future and past merging
  • Woodcut style: Adds textural quality to lines and graphic treatment, elevating the overall vintage craftsmanship feel
  • Movie poster: Enhances compositional drama and narrative quality, making images more cinematic and story-driven
  • Twilight palette: Further strengthens the specific color scheme, creating a more unified and recognizable visual experience

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for:

  • Indie game art, especially for narrative and atmospheric adventure or puzzle games
  • Science fiction or fantasy book and magazine cover designs
  • Independent music album covers, particularly for electronic, synthwave, or alternative music
  • Illustrations for modern literary works, especially those with surrealistic or philosophical reflections
  • Brand visual design and posters for cultural venues such as cafes and bookstores

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
