Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of dark fantasy, post-apocalyptic, and comic book aesthetics. It carries strong traces of neo-gothic and industrial punk influences while maintaining a narrative quality similar to a cross between French bandes dessinées and Japanese manga. It belongs to these style categories because of its strong outline work, exaggerated character designs, and dark-toned environments that maintain a ruinous beauty of a post-apocalyptic world.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this style are the strong contrast and hand-drawn quality of the linework. The color palette leans toward dark, muted tones but uses vibrant reds and oranges as accents to create dramatic effect. The texture is rough with ink splatters and paper-like quality, adding a raw and rugged feel. The line weight varies significantly, and character designs combine both cartoon and realistic elements – this contradictory combination is what makes the style impressive, bringing a unique tension and visual impact to the images.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Ink rendering: Pairing with this word enhances the hand-drawn quality and ink wash textures, bringing more traditional comic artistry to the work
  • Wasteland: Using this word can reinforce the ruined environments and survival themes, adding storytelling depth and emotional gravity
  • Gothic ornaments: Adding this element improves the richness of details and mysterious atmosphere, giving the overall aesthetic more layers and depth

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for dark fantasy or post-apocalyptic themed game art, independent comic creation, alternative music album covers, concept design for mature-oriented animation projects, and illustration work that aims to convey strong emotions and narrative qualities. It would also excel in gothic punk or dark fantasy book covers and poster design.

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
