What is Clean Illustration SREF style

This visual aesthetic is defined by crisp, dark outlines separating large, relatively flat areas of color, creating a bold and graphic appearance reminiscent of vintage poster art or early 20th-century illustration. Shading is often minimal or achieved through hard-edged color blocking rather than smooth gradients. When used in a **Midjourney prompt**, emphasizing strong linework and vibrant or high-contrast color palettes yields striking results. This **style** excels at creating highly readable and stylized images, making it perfect for narrative scenes or iconic portraits. Mastering this look often requires carefully crafting the **prompt** to balance graphic simplicity with atmospheric detail.

Clean Illustration Prompt Ideas

  • Majestic mountains above thick, golden clouds at sunrise, heavy black silhouettes, deep green valleys, highly graphic poster art
  • Portrait of a brooding young man with curly hair, standing in a field of bright yellow sunflowers, strong ink outlines, limited color palette
  • Detailed still life of a black vase full of pale yellow flowers next to a glowing lantern, dark interior, stylized window frame, graphic illustration
  • A lone astronaut standing on a vibrant red alien planet, stylized composition, heavy linework, high contrast

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.
