Style Summary

This style set presents a collection of images that blend photographic realism with fantastical or surreal elements. The color palettes are often muted and atmospheric, creating a sense of mystery, unease, and otherworldly beauty. The images suggest hidden narratives and psychological depths.

Style Analysis

Color: The color palettes are often muted and desaturated, featuring a mix of earthy tones, grays, and blues. Strategic use of more vibrant colors (like the red in the demon's tongue or the goldfish's scales) creates focal points and adds to the surreal and often unsettling atmosphere.
Lighting: The lighting is often dramatic and atmospheric, contributing to the sense of mystery and unease. Light sources may be hidden or used to create strong contrasts and long shadows.
Design Technique: The styles blend photographic realism with elements of surrealism, fantasy, and often a touch of the macabre. The subjects are often placed in unusual or unsettling contexts, creating a sense of visual tension and intrigue.

Application Scenarios

Concept Art for Horror Films, Psychological Thrillers, or Dark Fantasy Games: The styles can be used to create visually striking concept art that establishes the mood and visual language of projects that explore dark, unsettling, or otherworldly themes. Imagine designing the look of a haunted house, a dystopian city, or a surreal dreamscape with these images as inspiration.

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.
