Observations

The style uses stark black-and-white ink drawing with heavy contour lines, dense hatching, and sharply controlled negative areas. It combines clean illustrative silhouettes with richly textured natural forms and clearly readable objects, people, and animals across both landscape and vignette compositions.

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 .
