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 illustrative fantasy art, Western comics, and traditional painting techniques. It presents an aesthetic similar to high-quality fantasy comics or graphic novels, combining realism with nuanced artistic expression. The style shows influences from European classical illustration traditions while employing the refined details and color treatment of modern illustration.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this SREF style include meticulous brush detail, soft yet dramatic lighting effects, and a rich, harmonious color palette. The images have a distinctive textural quality and depth, creating a dreamlike yet weighted visual effect. Particularly impressive is the refined depiction of natural elements and fantasy themes, with each scene filled with narrative quality and atmosphere. The linework is precise yet fluid, with natural color transitions, presenting a carefully crafted hand-drawn quality while maintaining the clarity and color vibrancy of digital media.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Intricate detailing: Pairing with this word enhances the fine detail expression in the image, making scenes and characters more vivid and realistic
  • Ethereal atmosphere: Using this term can strengthen the mystical and surreal qualities in the work, creating a more emotionally resonant visual experience
  • Dramatic lighting: Adding this element improves the overall composition's layering and spatial sense, giving the image more depth and emotional tension

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for fantasy literature illustrations, premium graphic novels, role-playing game art, fairy tale book illustrations, and high-quality concept art. It is especially effective for visual narratives requiring rich detail and immersive quality, such as fantasy adventure game artwork, graphic novel covers, mythological themed illustration collections, or delicate collector's edition book illustrations. Due to its refined texture and emotionally evocative atmosphere, this style is also very well-suited for creating character portraits and scene designs that elicit emotional responses.

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
