Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of cartoon comics, illustration art, and Japanese anime aesthetics. It combines simplified cute line art with flat colors, creating a fairytale-like fantasy atmosphere while maintaining the expressiveness of modern anime illustrations. The style resembles "kawaii" (cute) aesthetics but incorporates more refined artistic expression techniques.

Style Characteristics

The style characteristics of these images include:

  • Bright, soft color palettes dominated by light blues, pinks, purples, and other gentle tones
  • Clean yet expressive line work with clear but not rigid outlines
  • Character designs that are somewhat flat but detailed, with rich and adorable facial expressions
  • Simplified backgrounds that still convey atmosphere, often decorated with stars and light elements
  • An overall dreamy mood with a cozy, comfortable feeling

This style is impressive because it maintains a clean, fresh visual effect while containing rich emotional expression and storytelling potential.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Soft gradient backgrounds: Adding this term enhances the dreamy quality of the images, making the overall atmosphere more warm and light
  • Star elements: Using this can strengthen the fantasy feel and add magical visual focal points to scenes
  • Minimalist linework: Adding this element maintains the freshness of the image while highlighting cute expressions and poses of characters

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for children's book illustrations, youth comics, mobile game UI design, social media stickers, emotional expression illustrations, brand character design, and cute-style commercial product packaging. It conveys a relaxed and joyful mood, perfect for creative contexts that aim to create warm, friendly, and imaginative atmospheres.

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
