Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of neo-retro comic art with modern digital illustration. It features a minimalist yet expressive illustration style that combines the clean linework of Japanese manga with contemporary color treatment. The style creates a unique visual language through simplified forms and color emphasis while maintaining artistic quality.

Style Characteristics

These images showcase a distinct unified color palette based on teal blues with vibrant contrasting accents. The linework is clean and precise, with flat color blocks and minimal texture detail, relying instead on color contrast and simplified forms to convey emotion. The lighting is minimal yet effective, creating a dreamlike atmosphere. What's particularly impressive is how it maintains enough detail to tell a story despite the simplification, and the unique atmosphere that feels both modern and nostalgic.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Illustrator artist style: Adding specific artist style references can make the work more distinctive and artistic
  • Minimalist design: Emphasizing this aspect can further purify the composition, making the subject more prominent
  • Cinematic color grading: Introducing film-like color treatment enhances the narrative quality and dramatic effect

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for science fiction or fantasy illustrations, indie game art design, comic book covers, music album artwork, and posters that aim to convey a specific mood or narrative. It also works well for book illustrations or magazine artwork that needs to feel contemporary while maintaining artistic value.

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
