Style Summary

The style set displays a collection of dark, evocative, and often unsettling visuals that blur the line between photography and digital manipulation. Characterized by a limited color palette (primarily blacks, grays, and occasional reds), high contrast, and focus on themes of horror, the images evoke a sense of dread, psychological unease, and the macabre.

Style Analysis

Color: The color palette is almost exclusively limited to shades of black and gray to create a strong sense of atmosphere. The occasional use of red introduces notes of blood, horror, and unease, creating a focal point.
Lighting: With a generally low-key aesthetic, light sources are used to highlight the macabre themes of the pieces. Low lighting leads to shadows, which create mystery and unease.
Design Technique: A fine balance of realism combined with highly stylized macabre and horror motifs is used. Images can suggest narratives of vulnerability and torment, enhanced by high definition imagery. The styles convey a sense of dread, psychological unease, and the macabre, with the focus on a blend of realism and highly stylized imagery.

Application Scenarios

Create Exclusive Merchandise for Horror Fans: Transform the art into posters, clothing, or collectibles that resonate with an audience captivated by the macabre. Imagine clothing lines where dark themes meet high fashion, or limited-edition prints that become prized possessions for horror aficionados.

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.
