To highlight the unique advantages and features of the style, we have carefully crafted custom prompts for each sref. By using these prompts, you can perfectly replicate the sref's effects.

Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of surrealism, sci-fi concept art, and cinematic photography aesthetics. It belongs to these categories because of its reality-transcending compositions, sci-fi film-like futuristic qualities, and dramatic cinematic lighting treatments. It also incorporates neo-romantic elements by fusing natural and cosmic elements to create dreamlike scenes that transcend everyday reality.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics of this SREF include:

  • Strong color contrasts dominated by teal/turquoise blues against warm orange-red tones creating striking visual impact
  • Dramatic lighting that creates cinematic atmosphere and volumetric presence
  • Surreal compositions that naturally blend impossible elements and scenes
  • Extensive use of cloud layers and atmospheric effects creating depth and dreamlike quality
  • Incorporation of cosmic and celestial elements adding mystery and grandeur
  • Balance between sharp details and soft atmospheric elements

This style is impressive because it successfully combines technical precision with artistic emotional expression, creating visual experiences that are both beyond reality and emotionally resonant.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • cinematic lighting: Enhances film-like light quality, strengthening the scene's dramatic impact and atmosphere
  • ethereal atmosphere: Elevates the work's otherworldly feel and dreamlike quality, making scenes more surreally beautiful
  • cosmic elements: Reinforces space and celestial motifs, adding mystery and grandeur
  • golden hour: Enhances sunrise/sunset warm golden tones, raising the emotional temperature of the overall image

Recommended Application Scenarios

  • Concept art and promotional posters for science fiction or fantasy films
  • Music album covers, especially for electronic, ambient, or post-rock genres
  • High-end brand image advertisements conveying transcendence and excellence
  • Visual expressions of dreams or psychological themes

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
