Art Style Type

This SREF style primarily blends elements of manga illustration with expressionism. It combines the linear expressiveness of Japanese manga with the strong emotional color contrasts of expressionism. The style resembles a mixture of hand-drawn comics and printmaking techniques, using bold color blocks and strong line work to create visually dynamic compositions. Simply put, it's like combining traditional comics with an artist's emotional expression.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics of these images include: rough and powerful black lines forming distinct outlines; bold and vibrant color contrasts, typically using only 2-3 main colors; simplified forms with exaggerated expression; and texture reminiscent of handmade prints. This style is impressive because of its raw power and emotional expression - each image feels like a direct presentation of the artist's inner emotions, retaining the narrative quality of comics while possessing the expressiveness of fine art.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Ink Illustration: Adding this word can enhance the bold linework and black-and-white contrast in the work, bringing a more primal and powerful visual impact
  • Expressionism: Using this can strengthen the emotional expression and exaggerated distortion in the work, making the image more dramatic and internally tense
  • Limited Palette: Adding this element improves the overall aesthetic by controlling the number of colors, making the work more concise and visually impactful

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for emotionally intense narrative illustrations, independent comic covers, music album cover designs, young adult book illustrations, emotionally-charged brand visual identities, and poster designs that need to express strong emotions or dramatic content. It's also excellent for depicting superheroes, mythological characters, or characters with strong personality traits.

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
