Art Style Type

This SREF style blends cyberpunk with sci-fi aestheticism, featuring distinct industrial futurism and surreal elements. It draws from cinematic rendering techniques similar to those seen in sci-fi films like "Blade Runner 2049" or "Arrival." The style creates a mysterious yet futuristic atmosphere through strong light-shadow contrasts and metallic textures, reminiscent of high-end concept art and science fiction visual development work.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent shared feature across these images is the dramatically theatrical lighting treatment, presenting warm golden, amber, and red tones in stark contrast with deep blacks. Light functions not merely as illumination but as a visual element itself, creating dynamism and energy through beams, sparks, and reflections. Reflective surfaces like metal and glass are meticulously rendered to establish a premium and futuristic feel. The overall composition has cinematic depth, with lighting techniques that transform ordinary objects into something extraordinary and enigmatic.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • volumetric lighting: Adding this term enhances the dimensional quality and layering of light in space, making light beams more tangible and increasing the mysterious atmosphere
  • cinematic render: Using this can elevate the overall cinematic quality, bringing more professional composition and color grading, making the work more narrative-driven
  • golden hour: Adding this element introduces warm golden tones and long shadow effects, enhancing emotional depth and visual impact

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for sci-fi movie posters, game opening cinematics, premium product advertisements, music album covers, tech company brand visuals, futuristic exhibition promotional materials, and any visual design requiring a premium feel with futuristic and mysterious qualities. It can give ordinary objects an extraordinary quality, making it excellent for concept art and atmosphere creation.

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.
