Art Style Type

This SREF style clearly blends Japanese animated film aesthetics, particularly the distinctive artistic approach of Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli. It combines romantic realism with fairy tale fantasy elements, founded on a hand-drawn quality and naturalistic color treatment. The style emphasizes the harmonious relationship between natural environments and characters, creating a poetic atmosphere through meticulous details and warm color tones.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent feature of this style is its color application—bright without being harsh, with moderate saturation, predominantly using greens, blues, and warm earth tones. The images display an extremely high level of detail, especially in the depiction of natural elements like grasslands, clouds, and trees. The light and shadow effects are soft and natural, creating dreamlike yet realistic scenes. Compositionally, there's an emphasis on expansive skies and vast natural landscapes, giving a sense of tranquility and freedom. This style is impressive because it successfully finds balance between reality and fantasy, combining realistic techniques with fairy tale magic.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Natural lighting: Enhances the soft, natural light expression in the work, increasing the depth and warmth of the scene
  • Rich details: Elevates the intricacy of natural elements and environments, making scenes more vivid and realistic
  • Dreamlike atmosphere: Strengthens the fusion of reality and fantasy in the image, creating a more poetic visual experience

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for children's book illustrations, animated film concept designs, fantasy-themed game art, nature-themed advertising illustrations, and any visual work that needs to express warmth, friendliness, and a touch of magical quality. It's also excellent for depicting rural landscapes, fairy tales, travel scenes, and emotionally narrative illustrations.

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
