Observations
Across all four renders, the style uses expressive, hand-drawn ink illustration with thick black contours, dense scratchy hatching, and stark black-and-cream contrast accented by muted blush and gray washes. It combines eerie whimsical characters and recurring animal or insect motifs with surreal, storybook-like scenes and visibly textured surfaces.

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 .
