What is Gestural Ink Draft SREF style

This style, often referred to as Expressive Line Art or energetic sketching, focuses on capturing the structure and movement of a subject using dynamic, visible ink lines. The artwork intentionally leaves construction lines, cross-hatching, and fluid overlaps visible, creating a raw and immediate aesthetic reminiscent of high-level design drafts. When generating images in **Midjourney**, incorporating this **style** requires a detailed **prompt** specifying high contrast, ink media, and gestural strokes to achieve this spontaneous, detailed yet unfinished quality.

Gestural Ink Draft Prompt Ideas

  • A futuristic cityscape under heavy rain, detailed concept sketch, dynamic ink line art, visible construction guides
  • Portrait of an old sailor, expressive line art style, heavy cross-hatching, stark contrast, black ink drawing
  • Still life of antique clocks and gears, concept sketching style, gestural ink work, focus on volume and form
  • A lone ancient tree beside a calm river, landscape sketch, sweeping gestural lines, high contrast ink drawing

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.
