What is Gentle Craft SREF style

This style is defined by its charming, slightly naive execution, featuring visible, textured brushstrokes and a warm, muted color palette that evokes joy and nostalgia. It often employs simplified shapes reminiscent of children's book art or artisanal craft. When generating images in Midjourney, integrating terms like "textured illustration," "gouache," or "colored pencil effect" into your prompt is key to capturing this handmade, endearing aesthetic. This look is perfect for creating whimsical portraits, cozy still lifes, and idyllic, gentle landscapes.

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.
