What is Chromatic Noir SREF style

This style is defined by striking visual depth, utilizing vast areas of absolute black contrasted sharply with saturated, often dual-tone gradients like vibrant orange and cyan. It evokes a highly cinematic and introspective mood, emphasizing clean lines and dramatic lighting on otherwise minimalist forms. To replicate this look effectively in Midjourney, prompt engineering should focus on specific lighting setups, such as rim lighting or color gels, combined with graphic rendering techniques to achieve this specific balance between deep shadow and intense color saturation, making it a powerful visual storytelling style.

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.
