What is Scribble Realism SREF style

This distinctive visual approach merges highly rendered or photorealistic subjects with chaotic, expressive line work, creating a sense of fragmented reality and raw energy. Dominated by a stark, monochromatic palette, it focuses intensely on texture, depth, and expressive mark-making. To achieve this unique composite look in Midjourney, ensure your prompt explicitly calls for a "sketch overlay" or "scribble texture" integrated into the primary scene. This style is highly effective for evocative portraits and atmospheric concept art, defining a powerful graphic style.

Scribble Realism Prompt Ideas

  • Close-up portrait of an old librarian looking intensely at the camera, heavy black scribble overlay accentuating facial contours, dramatic rim lighting, high contrast black and white
  • A desolate alien landscape under a dying sun, rendered with expressive ink washes and sharp charcoal sketch texture overlay, cinematic composition
  • Still life of antique mechanical gears resting on cracked marble, highly detailed photorealistic base with scattered, angry pencil markings, monochromatic
  • Full body illustration of a futuristic cyborg meditating, the structure detailed with frantic, fine line art annotations, minimalist background

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.
