What is Engraved Contour SREF style

This visual style strongly evokes traditional relief printmaking, such as linocut or engraving, characterized by striking high contrast between deep blue ink and a pale background. Shading and depth are meticulously rendered through dense, expressive contour lines and hatching, giving forms a graphic, tactile texture. To effectively capture this precise aesthetic in **Midjourney**, incorporating keywords like 'engraving style' or 'contour line art' within your **prompt** is crucial. This powerful graphical **style** is excellent for producing both atmospheric landscapes and dramatic, sculpted portraits.

Engraved Contour Prompt Ideas

  • Close-up portrait of a wise old woman, highly detailed etching texture, monochromatic blue and cream, dramatic light
  • A retro-futuristic cityscape viewed from above, clean linocut illustration, flat fields of color defined by fine lines
  • Still life of antique scientific instruments, detailed woodcut technique, illuminated by a single lamp, moody atmosphere

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.
