What is Stipple Etching SREF style

This distinctive artistic approach is defined by its meticulous **Stippling** technique, where images are built entirely from tiny dots (pointillism) to achieve shading, depth, and texture. The visual result often mimics antique engravings, sepia ink drawings, or fine wood-burning art on textured, light-toned paper. It conveys a sense of patience and obsessive detail. To effectively generate similar results in **Midjourney**, your **prompt** must clearly specify the dot rendering method and the monochromatic, textured aesthetic to capture this unique illustration **style**.

Stipple Etching Prompt Ideas

  • Intricate portrait of a majestic owl formed exclusively by dense stippling dots, high-resolution detail on antique parchment paper, sepia tones
  • A sprawling, magical floating island landscape rendered using only pointillism shading, monochromatic brown ink illustration, highly detailed fantasy scene
  • Baroque ornamental still life of fruit and ornate vases, using stippling technique for texture and shadow, dramatic focus, on cream paper
  • Abstract geometric pattern covering the entire frame, created through varying densities of stippling dots, deep brown color palette, extreme detail

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.
