Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of sketch art, line art, and watercolor illustration with clear influences from Japanese manga and modern illustration. It takes a minimalist approach, using carefully crafted lines and a limited color palette to express rich emotions and details. The style resembles concept art sketches but with more refinement, preserving the natural feel of hand-drawing and the artist's personal touch.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this style are the delicate yet expressive linework, a duotone color scheme predominantly using blue and orange tones, and a deliberately "unfinished" quality. The lines display fluid and confident strokes while maintaining a slight casualness, as if created on the artist's impulse. Backgrounds are minimal, allowing character figures to be the focus, while subtle textures and color splatter effects add depth and dynamism. This style is impressive because it achieves a perfect balance between simplicity and complexity, conveying maximum emotion and narrative with minimal elements.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Line Art Design: Emphasizes the fluidity and dynamic quality of lines, enhancing the vivid expression of character emotions and poses
  • Duotone: Creates a more unified and distinctive visual language by limiting the color palette
  • Textured Layering: Adds subtle texture elements that increase the depth and artisanal feeling of the work

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for manga and novel cover designs, character concept art, narrative illustrations, literary work accompaniments, music album covers, and any visual projects requiring emotional depth and artistic expression. It also works excellently for teen or adult-oriented game art, especially for indie games that focus on emotion and storytelling.

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.
