--sref 3200

Art Style Type

This SREF style blends dark realism, post-apocalyptic aesthetics, and neo-noir cinematic elements. It presents an intensely realistic yet dramatic visual effect, similar to high-contrast, color-restricted scenes from Hollywood blockbusters. It belongs to these categories because it doesn't shy away from serious, heavy subjects while maintaining a high level of realistic detail.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics include faded sepia-toned color palettes, extremely high detail clarity, strong light-and-shadow contrasts, slightly grainy textures, and a pronounced cinematic quality. The overall atmosphere leans toward somber and heavy, carrying an "end-of-days" feeling. What makes it impressive is its ability to maintain realism while creating a powerful emotional atmosphere, as if each image is telling a dark but captivating story.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

• Cinematic photography: Adding this keyword enhances composition and lighting design, giving the work a more professional film photography quality
• Floating dust: Using this reinforces the atmospheric feeling and spatial depth, adding a sense of desolation or battlefield heaviness
• Sepia filter: Adding this element unifies the overall color scheme, creating a nostalgic, heavy, or oppressive mood that elevates the artistic expression

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for apocalyptic movie posters, war game promotional materials, horror novel covers, suspense video game art, dark fantasy scene design, and any visual work that needs to create a tense, oppressive, or dramatic atmosphere. It's also excellent for promotional art communicating serious social issues.
