Art Style Type

This SREF style blends dark fantasy, post-apocalyptic, and gothic romanticism elements. It's notably influenced by symbolism and concept art, especially in its portrayal of supernatural and grand scenes. The style exists at the boundary between reality and dreams, combining ancient and futuristic sensibilities to create a mysterious and profound visual language.

Style Characteristics

These images feature stark visual contrasts and dramatic lighting. Bright light sources punctuate dark atmospheres, creating a sense of mystery and otherworldliness. The color palette focuses on deep grays, blacks, and blue-greens, occasionally contrasted with vibrant orange-yellow flowers. Textures convey rough stone and cold metal while maintaining intricate detail. Compositions emphasize grand scale juxtaposed with tiny human figures, creating a sense of awe and emotional depth.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Monumental Structures: Enhances the epic quality and imposing nature of scenes, strengthening the scale contrast between humans and environment
  • Misty Atmosphere: Adds mystery and layering to the images while softening hard edges and enhancing spatial depth
  • Localized Bright Light: Creates visual focal points within otherwise dark environments, guides viewer attention, and increases dramatic effect

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for dark fantasy game concept design, sci-fi movie posters, apocalyptic novel covers, mysterious music album artwork, and any visual media requiring a sense of grandeur and mystical atmosphere. It also works excellently for narrative illustrations, especially those depicting ancient ruins, lost civilizations, or unknown worlds.

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
