Visual Style Characteristics

  1. Color Style: Highly saturated color palette dominated by vibrant orange backgrounds with contrasting cool tones (teal, blue, purple) and warm accents (red, yellow). Creates a bold, energetic atmosphere with playful color harmonies.
  2. Texture & Feel: Clean and smooth with a slightly tactile quality, like digital illustrations with added texture brushes. Combines flat color areas with subtle texture details that give depth without complexity.
  3. Light Treatment: Stylized, non-realistic lighting with simple highlights and shadows that create dimension without aiming for realism. Luminous quality with strategic bright spots that draw attention.
  4. Composition Style: Dynamic, character-centered layouts with slightly asymmetrical balance. Simplified backgrounds that focus attention on expressive characters with exaggerated proportions.

I would call this style "Neo-Cartoon Pop", which is impressive because of its perfect balance between childlike whimsy and sophisticated design sensibilities.

Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of contemporary cartoon illustration, pop art, and modern character design. It draws inspiration from animation studios like Cartoon Network's newer shows, with the color boldness of pop art and the character expressiveness of modern indie animation. It belongs to these categories because it employs simplified yet highly expressive character designs, emphasizes emotion over realism, and uses color as a storytelling element rather than just decoration.

Recommended Keywords for Enhanced Effect

  • Playful Geometry: Adding simple geometric patterns can enhance the modern design quality while maintaining the fun aesthetic
  • Dynamic Poses: Emphasizing more extreme character poses will strengthen the sense of action and expressiveness
  • Textured Gradients: Incorporating subtle gradient textures can add more depth and visual interest to flat color areas

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for children's book illustrations, character design for animated series, indie game art, educational content for young audiences, youth-oriented brand identities, social media content with character mascots, and app interfaces targeting younger users. The style's approachable yet distinctive quality makes it excellent for any project needing to convey personality and fun.

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
