What is Luminous Illustration SREF style

This Luminous Illustration aesthetic is characterized by rich, saturated colors, high contrast between deep celestial backgrounds and brightly highlighted foreground elements like clouds and flowers. It blends detailed, expressive character work (large eyes) with textured, painterly techniques reminiscent of gouache or thick watercolor. To effectively replicate this magical ambiance in **Midjourney**, your **prompt** should emphasize luminosity, vibrant saturation, and texture. Mastering this **style** involves calling out the cosmic setting and the emotional depth achieved through soft yet dramatic lighting.

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?
