What is Rapid Trace SREF style

This style embodies the raw energy of quick visualization, characterized by bold, dynamic black and white line work and expressive hatching for shading. It mimics traditional concept sketches or storyboards, prioritizing form and composition over detail. When crafting a prompt for Midjourney, incorporating terms like 'ink sketch' or 'line drawing' helps achieve this look. This versatile style is excellent for rapid iteration in visual development before adding color or refinement.

Rapid Trace Prompt Ideas

  • A desolate desert road vanishing into mesa cliffs, dynamic sketch style, heavy hatching
  • Close-up portrait of a mysterious woman, expressive ink drawing, variable line weight, looking away
  • A simple still life of glassware and fruit on a wooden table, minimalist line art, high contrast
  • Futuristic spaceship blueprint, concept sketch, pencil drawing on paper 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.
