Art Style Type

This SREF style blends dark fantasy with cinematic realism. It presents a mixture of concept art and digital painting with strong neo-gothic undertones. It belongs to these style categories because it combines meticulous realistic details with dramatic lighting treatments while maintaining a surreal sense of mystery.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics of this SREF include dramatically contrasting light and shadow, rich textural details, immersive atmosphere creation, and emotional color application. It excels at creating dense emotional atmospheres through dark yet warm color palettes and strong contrast. What makes this style impressive is its ability to simultaneously present refined realistic elements alongside dreamlike surreal qualities, giving the images both narrative depth and visual impact.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • cinematographic lighting: Pairing with this word enhances the cinematic light effects in the image, making scenes more dramatic and adding depth
  • detailed textures: Using this word can further enhance the material representation in the image, making clothing, skin, and environmental elements more realistic
  • atmospheric mood: Adding this element improves the overall emotional atmosphere, making the image more immersive and enhancing its mystique and emotional resonance

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for fantasy novel cover designs, role-playing game concept art, epic movie posters, dark-themed music album covers, mysterious editorial illustrations, and any creative context requiring strong emotional atmosphere and visual impact.

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
