What is Hatching Illustration SREF style

This distinct illustrative approach is characterized by meticulous cross-hatching and dense line work used primarily to build three-dimensional form, shadow, and rich texture, strongly reminiscent of classic engraving or detailed pen-and-ink drawings. It employs a highly restricted, high-contrast color palette, frequently leveraging vibrant blocks of color like deep orange or red against stark white space. When generating imagery in **Midjourney**, specifying these techniques ensures the complex linear detail remains prominent. A successful **prompt** should emphasize the textural drawing quality to capture this sharp, graphic **style**.

Hatching Illustration Prompt Ideas

  • A solitary astronaut exploring a vibrant orange desert landscape, detailed cross-hatching and stippling texture, limited palette of terracotta and black ink, graphic novel aesthetic
  • Close-up portrait of a serious figure, strong emphasis on facial textures created by fine pen lines, blocks of solid burnt orange background, high contrast illustration
  • Still life of antique coffee equipment and fruit, highly detailed technical drawing style using only ink hatching, accents of crimson color blocking
  • A sprawling vineyard scene rendered entirely with varying densities of ink lines, strong directional light, atmospheric contrast

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.
