Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of Japanese Ukiyo-e, Pop Art, and Modern Comic Illustration. It inherits the flat compositional approach and vivid color contrasts from ukiyo-e, borrows the high-saturation color schemes and bold visual impact from pop art, while utilizing the refined line work of contemporary digital art. This hybrid style creates a unique visual language that combines traditional Eastern aesthetic foundations with modern visual dynamism.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent feature of this style is its extremely vibrant color combinations and intense visual contrast. The compositions typically employ high-purity colors like red, blue, and yellow, creating energetic and dramatic visual effects. The line work is precise yet expressive, maintaining a hand-drawn quality while achieving digital art precision. The overall compositions are clean and powerful, effectively using color blocking to enhance visual hierarchy. This style is impressive because it successfully balances traditional and modern, Eastern and Western aesthetic elements, creating a visual experience that feels both familiar and refreshingly novel.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • "vintage poster art": Enhances the retro poster aesthetic, making color contrasts more striking and adding a nostalgic yet fashionable atmosphere
  • "bold graphic design": Amplifies the visual impact of graphic elements, making lines sharper and more powerful while giving the composition a stronger design sensibility
  • "vibrant neon colors": Further elevates color saturation and luminous effects, creating a more dazzling and contemporary visual atmosphere

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for music album cover design, fashion brand posters, game character artwork, cultural event promotional materials, and social media visual content. Its bold colors and strong visual impact can quickly capture audience attention in information-dense environments, while the East-meets-West aesthetic quality gives it unique cultural appeal in international creative projects.

More Prompt Tips & Tricks


You can explore further by combining the following prompt command for MidJourney:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2

This website stands out as one of the pioneering libraries I discovered in my AI art journey. What truly sets it apart is its comprehensive offering: not just unique style codes, but also intricate blends and full prompts. The inclusion of complete prompts is particularly valuable, as it's an artistic choice that many creators hesitate to share openly.

As a beginner in MidJourney, I struggled to create the style of images I envisioned and felt lost with keyword usage. This led me to create this website for sref codes and examples with prompts, aimed at helping newcomers easily generate high-quality images and find joy in their creative process.

There are many Midjourney Sref galleries online, but promptsref.com is my go-to resource. If you're looking for a comprehensive collection of Midjourney Srefs, this is the only website you need.
