SREF code + Prompts: An epic adventure in an amber dark surreal fantasy
Exploring a Midjourney style with a SREF code and fantasy prompts

The girl does not fear anything.
She lives in a realm of dark surreal fantasy. Some say the Divine End is near.
The Gods are angry.
This is the setting of Midjourney’s SREF code: 3000006
Today, we will be exploring different versions of a Midjourney SREF code, and sharing a few prompts. Hope you like it.
Let’s explore more this place:

That’s an awesome sight. I wouldn’t want to live there, though.
Let’s try some mechas. Nuclear mechas.

Mmhh. Interesting: This style turns any futuristic element into a fantastical one.
Let’s try some mystical androids:

Again, ignoring my cyber implants. We did get one skullface. And I just love the apocalyptic mood.
Now. Are there any Kaijus in this place?

Of course there are. But that tongue connection is just weird.
Finally, let’s test some angels. Just because they are awesome.

More static than expected.
Let’s reduce the style weight (sw) to the default value: 100. I want to see if we can get more motion in our images.
We will also add tokens to reinforce our goal:
action shot, movement, bokeh, blur

Way better. The style is there, but the images are more dynamic.
No blur/bokeh, though.
Now I’m just curious to see the effects of a reduced —sw. Let’s try with 50.

A special prompt
There is a special Prompt I want to test with this sref code:
Photography of [subject], in the style of Nebulous Aura Decay, vaporous aura trails, decayed luminous bursts

Love it.
The basics:
Key characteristics of the SREF code include:
Color Palette: Dominated by earthy browns, muted golds, and amber tones, creating an atmosphere of decay and mystery.
Mood: Haunting and ethereal, evoking feelings of both awe and unease, as if these scenes exist in a liminal space between life, death, and rebirth.
Details: High-texture detailing in armor, skin, and machinery, with glowing elements (e.g., eyes, molten cracks) that hint at inner power or energy.
Composition: Dramatic, cinematic framing with characters often central and dynamic lighting emphasizing their forms against misty or clouded backdrops.
Themes: Heroism, desolation, and transformation, with a sense of ancient myths rewritten in a dystopian, surrealist future.
This style is perfect for visual storytelling in epic, otherworldly narratives.
