What is AquaEtch SREF style

This distinctive style merges the fluid, bleeding edges of watercolor washes with the detailed structure of fine linework, often resembling engraving or detailed hatching. The characteristic use of bold, contrasting colors, such as the teals and oranges visible here, defines the mood. When crafting a Midjourney prompt, including terms like 'ink wash,' 'hatching,' or 'textured paper' is crucial to achieving this layered complexity. This powerful visual style excels at rendering atmospheric scenes and expressive portraits, providing a rich, artistic texture that elevates any generated image.

AquaEtch Prompt Ideas

  • A stoic portrait of an astronaut floating in deep space, rendered in illustrative watercolor style, strong teal and orange color separation, detailed cross-hatching, white watercolor paper texture
  • A sprawling futuristic city skyline at sunset, highly detailed ink line art combined with moody watercolor splatters, vibrant turquoise and warm red palette
  • Still life composition of antique scientific instruments, illuminated by single spotlight, rendered with precise etching lines and deep indigo watercolor accents
  • Misty mountain landscape with ancient pine trees, heavy use of layered blue and grey watercolor textures defined by fine, flowing ink lines, epic scale

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
