What is Shoujo Sketch SREF style

This aesthetic is defined by meticulously detailed, clean line art reminiscent of classic 1990s shoujo manga, often appearing as a polished sketch or colored line draft. The defining feature is the extremely soft, desaturated color palette, heavily utilizing delicate pastel washes, especially pale pinks and sky blues, giving images an ethereal and slightly nostalgic mood. When using this style in a Midjourney prompt, focusing on line weight and light coloring techniques is crucial for capturing the gentle, almost unfinished yet highly composed look seen in these illustrations.

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.
