Art Style Type

This SREF style primarily combines underground comics, printmaking art, and punk/gothic aesthetics. It has distinct indie comic qualities reminiscent of 70s-80s underground comics, while employing woodcut printing techniques. The rough lines, high contrast, and limited color palette all echo the aesthetic characteristics of early printmaking and punk posters.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristic of this style is the strong binary color contrast, especially red-black and green-black combinations, creating bold visual impact. Rough yet expressive lines define the outlines without subtle transitions or gradients. The overall imagery presents a raw, coarse texture reminiscent of hand-printed works. The use of skull and gothic elements adds a somber and mysterious atmosphere. This simplified yet powerful form of expression makes the images highly recognizable and memorable.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Woodcut Print: Adding this term enhances the line texture and primitive printing feel of the work, increasing the authenticity of handcrafted art
  • Punk Poster: Using this reinforces the counterculture atmosphere of the work, adding more raw energy from urban underground culture
  • Dark Illustration: Adding this element improves the sense of mystery and drama, strengthening the artistic expression of dark themes

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for independent music album covers, punk/metal band promotional materials, indie comics and novel illustrations, horror-themed game art, alternative culture event posters, and any design scenario that needs to express rebellious, mysterious, or alternative atmospheres. It's also appropriate for niche clothing brand visual identities or any creation aiming to convey underground culture, vintage feel, and raw artistic sensibility.

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
