Art Style Type

This SREF style combines Neo-Gothic, Cyberpunk, and Film Noir elements. It creates a unique aesthetic where futuristic elements coexist with retro atmosphere through dark realism and dramatic lighting effects.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent features are the strong contrast between light and shadow and a cool-toned atmosphere. The images consistently display a wet, metallic visual quality, creating intense visual impact through detailed texture rendering and lighting treatment. Each image maintains a mysterious and slightly oppressive emotional tone.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Cinematic lighting: Enhances dramatic lighting effects and cinematic feel
  • Dark atmosphere: Strengthens the overall mysterious and oppressive mood
  • Metallic texture: Improves texture representation and adds futuristic elements

Recommended Application Scenarios

Particularly suitable for sci-fi movie posters, dark-style game concept design, high-end fashion photography, and commercial creative scenarios requiring strong visual impact.

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
