What is Sketch Wash Illustration SREF style

This aesthetic is defined by its expressive, raw ink outlines combined with loose, deliberately limited color washes, primarily focusing on cool greens and blues against vast white space. It mimics the look of preliminary concept sketches or storyboards, evoking a sense of nostalgia and gentle whimsy. When using **Midjourney**, incorporating terms that emphasize texture and sketch quality (like "ink wash" or "rough sketch") into your **prompt** is key to replicating this charming **style**. The resulting images feel immediate yet deeply atmospheric, often featuring character designs or atmospheric scenes.

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.
