What is Color Block SREF style

The Color Block aesthetic is defined by distinct areas of flat color used to construct forms, resulting in high contrast and significant graphic impact. Shadows and highlights are represented by sharp, unblended planes of color instead of smooth gradients, lending a crisp, modern feel to illustrations. This technique is highly effective in **Midjourney** for achieving clean, bold visuals for character art or stylized environments. When crafting a successful **prompt**, emphasizing this flat, graphic rendering ensures the generated image maintains this distinctive visual **style** throughout various subjects.

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?
