Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic, and dark realism. It presents an atmosphere that exists between science fiction and fantasy, creating a sense of something both futuristic and ancient through blurred boundaries and fragmented forms. This style evokes the visual aesthetics of works like "Blade Runner" while adding more mysterious and supernatural elements.

Style Characteristics

The most striking feature of this style is its powerful atmosphere creation and emotional expression. The images use a predominantly dark green color palette accented with red light sources, creating a melancholic and mysterious atmosphere. Blurry, fragmented lines and shapes create a dreamlike and uncertain sense of reality. The contrast between light and shadow is strong, especially in the treatment of light sources against dark backgrounds, giving a surreal feeling. The overall images have a "digital painting" quality that retains the emotional expression of hand-drawing while showcasing the unique effects of digital art.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Dark Sci-Fi: Can strengthen the futuristic feel and mysterious atmosphere, enhancing the collision between technology and mystical elements
  • Mist Effects: Using this can reinforce the haziness in the images, enhancing depth and mystery in the space
  • Shattered Light Particles: Adding this element makes the composition more dynamic, strengthening the mixed aesthetics of technology and the supernatural

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for concept design for sci-fi horror games, dark fantasy movie posters, post-apocalyptic novel cover illustrations, cyberpunk-themed music album covers, and any visual work that needs to create a mysterious, futuristic atmosphere with a touch of unease.

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
