What is Ink Hatching SREF style

Ink Hatching is a striking illustration technique defined by meticulous black ink work, utilizing dense lines, cross-hatching, and variable line weight to build texture, shadow, and depth. This monochromatic approach creates high contrast and dramatic realism or expressive energy, evident in both portraits and environments. When using this as a **prompt** guide in **Midjourney**, it yields powerful, graphic images that mimic traditional pen-and-ink drawings. Mastering this **style** requires careful control over line density for effective tonal variation.

Ink Hatching Prompt Ideas

  • A brooding portrait of an old sailor, highly detailed pen and ink drawing, intense cross-hatching for shadows, monochromatic, volumetric shading
  • Vast desolate canyon riverbed, dramatic clouds, detailed ink illustration, heavy cross-hatching, stark black and white landscape
  • Interior of a gritty, underground workshop, detailed line art, industrial elements, ink hatching shading, clean line work
  • A cluster of baroque keys on a wooden table, extreme detail, ink drawing technique, sharp focus, high contrast, ink hatching texture

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.
