Art Style Type

This SREF style blends neo-retro aesthetics with modern illustration techniques, showing clear influences from cinematic poster art and comic illustration. It incorporates a neo-noir approach to color treatment while combining the precision of modern digital painting with the artistic sensibility of mid-20th century illustration. It belongs to these style categories because it preserves the emotional quality and atmosphere of retro elements while expressing them through contemporary technical approaches.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics of this SREF include bold color contrasts, dramatic lighting and shadows, clearly defined figure outlines, and simplified yet expressive details. The images use bright oranges against cool blues to create striking contrast and dramatic effect. The brushwork appears digital but maintains a hand-painted quality, giving the work a semi-realistic, semi-stylized visual effect. This style is impressive because it successfully captures mood and atmosphere while maintaining a clean, powerful visual expression.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Cinematic Poster Art: Pairing with this keyword enhances the dramatic composition and narrative quality, making the image more story-driven and visually impactful
  • Neo-Retro Lighting: Using this word can reinforce the contrast between light and shadow, creating more dimensional and emotionally charged visual effects
  • Impressionist Color Palette: Adding this element improves the richness and variety of colors while maintaining stylistic harmony, elevating the artistic expressiveness of the image

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for movie and game promotional posters, storybook cover illustrations, character design, music album covers, fashion magazine illustrations, and any commercial art projects requiring emotional atmosphere and strong visual impact. It effectively conveys tension, mystery, or nostalgia, making it ideal for visual creations that need to tell a story.

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
