Art Style Type
This SREF style blends elements of cyberpunk, industrial gothic, and new retro wave art. It adopts the dystopian futuristic feel and human-machine fusion themes from cyberpunk, the dark mechanical aesthetics of industrial gothic, and the vibrant color schemes and nostalgic futurism of new retro wave. This mixture creates a distinctive "dystopian neon" style that feels both futuristic and primitively raw.
Style Characteristics
The main characteristics of this SREF are the strong color contrasts and atmospheric mood creation. It uses vibrant yellow-orange backgrounds against darkened subjects to create dramatic contrast, producing a visual effect of neon lights illuminating shadows. The linework is bold and powerful, with a hand-drawn quality that doesn't sacrifice precision. The layered light and shadow treatment gives the images a certain "glowing" quality. This style is impressive because it successfully conveys a visual contradiction between future and primitive, high-tech and decayed.
Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

Recommended Application Scenarios
This style is particularly suitable for sci-fi or cyberpunk themed game art, album cover designs, comic or graphic novel illustrations, movie posters, and any creative projects needing to express dystopian futures or the contrast between high tech and low life. It's also excellent for representing rebellious, edgy, or subcultural content.
