Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of Pixel Art and Isometric Pixel Art. It captures the essence of retro gaming aesthetics while adding modern detail expression and color application. The style is clearly inspired by 90s pixel games, but with richer colors and more intricate details, representing a perfect fusion of classic pixel art with modern digital painting techniques.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this SREF are the meticulous pixel representation, with each scene carefully constructed from small blocks, yet featuring astonishing detail and depth. Colors are vibrant yet harmonious, with notable contrasts that bring the images to life. The light and shadow treatment is excellent, adding realism and spatial sense to the pixelated scenes. Despite the constraints of the pixel style, the images still convey rich emotions and storytelling, and this balance is what makes it impressive.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Pixel Depth: Pairing with this word enhances the layering in the image, making the distinction between foreground and background elements more pronounced
  • Color Harmony: Using this word ensures that even in colorful scenes, the overall image maintains visual balance and comfort
  • Atmospheric Lighting: Adding this element brings emotional layers to pixel art, creating specific moods and atmospheres through subtle variations in light

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for indie game visual design, retro game promotional art, pixel-style character portraits, nostalgic-themed digital illustrations, retro-style social media avatars, game interface design, and any creative project that needs to combine modern sensibilities with retro pixel aesthetics.

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
