What is Heavy Line Art SREF style

This aesthetic blends photorealistic elements with pronounced, thick black outlines, characteristic of graphic novels or stylized comic art. It utilizes dramatic lighting (seen in the portrait and still life) contrasted with flat areas of color defined by these strong contours, particularly in landscapes. To achieve this look in Midjourney, incorporate terms like 'inked outline' or 'comic book inking' into your prompt to emphasize the structure over pure texture. This compelling style allows for unique visual depth when using a Midjourney prompt focused on realistic subjects but pushing the rendering toward an illustrative style.

Heavy Line Art Prompt Ideas

  • A melancholic astronaut standing on Mars, hyper-detailed, heavy black line art illustration, cinematic lighting
  • A bustling Tokyo street market at night, rain slicked pavement, vibrant neon signs, strong comic book inking effect
  • An ornate antique pocket watch floating in water, close-up, detailed cross-hatching outlines, muted color palette
  • A medieval knight confronting a dragon in a cave, dramatic chiaroscuro, heavy black outlines defining the forms, graphic novel aesthetic

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.
