What is Hatching Drawing SREF style

This aesthetic is characterized by meticulous Hatching Drawing, employing dense, directional lines and cross-hatching to construct form, shadow, and rich texture across various subjects, from landscapes to portraits. It mimics traditional academic studies done with graphite or charcoal. When utilizing this style in a Midjourney prompt, emphasizing terms like "cross-hatched rendering" or "fine graphite lines" is crucial for capturing the distinctive tonal quality. This technique offers a classic, detailed illustration look, providing depth without relying on color. A successful prompt engineering approach focuses intently on line quality and tonal contrast.

Hatching Drawing Prompt Ideas

  • A profile portrait of an aged sea captain, intricate cross-hatching detail, graphite pencil drawing, high contrast, academic study
  • A sweeping mountain vista reflected in a still lake, rendered entirely in fine hatching lines, dramatic shadows, fine art illustration
  • A still life of antique keys and gears, detailed pencil sketch, dense crosshatching technique, textural surface
  • A lone medieval knight standing guard, detailed pen and ink hatching illustration, 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.
