Art Style Type

This SREF style blends Neo-Retro Futurism with Cyberpunk aesthetics, featuring strong cinematic visual storytelling elements. It incorporates retro elements from 80s-90s science fiction films while combining modern high-quality rendering techniques to create a unique "retro-future" visual language. The style clearly integrates industrial design elements and futuristic concepts, creating a cinematic atmosphere through strong contrasts and dramatic lighting.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this SREF style include extreme light and shadow treatment with dramatic color contrasts. It employs deep shadows and bright highlights to create theatrical effects, while applying a carefully controlled limited color palette, often using blue and orange as primary contrasting tones. Texture representation is incredibly detailed, with highly realistic rendering of materials like metal, plastic, and fabric, yet the overall style maintains an artistic touch rather than pure photorealism. Depth of field control is precise, typically using shallow depth of field to emphasize subjects while backgrounds remain slightly blurred but rich in detail. This style is impressive because it perfectly balances futuristic elements with nostalgic emotions while maintaining exceptionally high visual quality and exquisite detail representation.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Cinematic Rendering: Pairing with this keyword enhances the film-like quality of the image, bringing more professional lighting and composition techniques that give the work Hollywood blockbuster-level visual impact
  • Atmospheric Lighting: Using this word reinforces the dramatic effect of light sources, creating more layered and emotional lighting atmospheres that strengthen the overall narrative feel
  • Material Refinement: Adding this element significantly improves the detailed representation of various surface textures, making materials like metal, plastic, and fabric more realistic yet futuristic, enhancing the overall professionalism and sophistication

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for science fiction movie poster design, high-end tech product promotional visuals, futuristic-themed game art, concept design artwork, and premium advertising photography. It's also excellent for depicting future cityscapes, high-tech equipment, concept vehicles, and character designs, especially in creative contexts that require a cinematic atmosphere and strong narrative feel.

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
