Style Characteristics

These images present a dreamlike realism style that perfectly blends reality with fantasy. They share meticulous textural details, soft color palettes, and carefully designed lighting that creates a quiet yet mysterious atmosphere. Each character possesses a sculptural presence while maintaining a sense of serene solitude. This style is impressive because it maintains high artistic quality while evoking emotional resonance and stimulating the viewer's imagination.

Art Style Type

This SREF style combines elements of surrealism, contemporary art photography, and refined doll aesthetics. It carries a distinct cinematic atmosphere, as if each image is a fragment of a larger story. The style resembles works by contemporary artists like Tim Walker or Paolo Ventura, who often create worlds that are both realistic and beyond reality. It belongs to these categories because it maintains photographic-like textures and lighting while incorporating elements and characters that couldn't exist in reality.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Cinematic lighting: Using this word enhances the deliberately designed dramatic light effects in the images, adding storytelling depth and emotional resonance
  • High-end fashion photography: This element elevates the texture and refinement of the work, giving character designs more sophisticated styling
  • Matte finish: Pairing with this word brings a soft surface treatment to the images, reducing excessive sharpness and increasing the artistic atmosphere

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for high-end brand advertising, art photography exhibitions, indie game character design, contemporary fairy tale illustrations, concept art collections, fashion magazine editorial content, and any visual project requiring a fantasy atmosphere without sacrificing sophistication. It's especially effective for telling stories that exist between reality and dreams.

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
