Art Style Type

This SREF style blends Neo-Retro illustration, Japanese manga, and American comic elements to create a distinctive "Neo-Retro Pop Art" aesthetic. It adopts the simplified linework and stark contrasts of vintage posters but breathes new life into them through modern illustration techniques. The style resembles a fusion of modern tattoo art with Japanese ukiyo-e, enhanced with anime and comic expressiveness.

Style Characteristics

The most prominent feature of this style is the use of clean, crisp linework paired with a limited but high-contrast color palette (primarily red, black, and cream tones). Compositions are bold and dramatic with simplified backgrounds that make the main figures stand out. The line style remains consistent and fluid throughout, giving a sense of deliberate design rather than spontaneous creation. Another striking characteristic is the vintage paper-like background treatment that adds nostalgia while maintaining modern sharpness.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Comic Illustration Style: Enhances the fluidity and expressiveness of lines, making figures more dynamic and dramatic
  • Japanese Ukiyo-e: Reinforces the flat composition and simplified background artistic effects, elevating the overall visual impact
  • Vintage Poster Texture: Adds subtle paper grain and wear effects, creating a nostalgic yet fashionable atmosphere

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for music album covers, rock or alternative music posters, limited edition designs for fashion brands, tattoo art references, indie game character design, and illustrations for publications targeting teenagers or young adults. It's also perfect for any creative project aiming to convey rebellion, edginess, or retro coolness.

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.
