Observations
Across all four renders, the style uses highly detailed black-and-white ink drawing with thick contours, dense crosshatching, and stark tonal reversals. Expressive bearded figures and urban or watery settings are composed with dramatic perspective and energetic, scratchy marks, giving the images a graphic-novel intensity.

Earlier versions
Same code, different picture. Midjourney changed how it reads SREF codes after V6.1, so V8.2 turns this code into a new style. The old one still works: add or .
