Observations
Across all four renders, dense urban scenes are built from energetic ink-like contour lines, sharp perspective, and strongly contrasted black shadows. Saturated pink, blue, and peach accents heighten the expressive, slightly surreal architecture while the crowded streets, vehicles, and figures create a sense of movement.

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 .
