What is Graphic Sketch SREF style

This visual style merges strong, raw ink line work with relatively flat, expressive color fills, creating an aesthetic common in modern graphic novels or concept art sketches. It prioritizes dynamic outlines and captures mood through simplified shading rather than high realism. To achieve this specific look in Midjourney, the prompt should emphasize the duality of the technique, such as combining "ink line art" with "watercolor wash." Mastering this style allows for evocative storytelling within a single frame, making it an excellent prompt choice for character studies or atmospheric scenes.

Graphic Sketch Prompt Ideas

  • A vast snowy mountain range overlooking a small, rugged settlement, strong ink outlines, watercolor wash, atmospheric lighting
  • Close-up portrait of a thoughtful female detective wearing a trench coat, dynamic sketch style, defined facial structure, muted color palette
  • An assortment of artisanal cocktails and botanicals on a wooden tray, focus on texture contrast, graphic sketch illustration
  • A lone astronaut exploring a desolate alien city, heavy cross-hatching for shadows, high contrast ink work, cinematic concept art

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.
