Observations

The style uses stark black-and-white illustration with very high contrast, pale facial planes, deep shadow masses, and delicate ink-like linework. It consistently presents gothic, fashion-oriented character portraits with dark clothing, umbrellas, rain, and carefully framed profile or three-quarter views.

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 .
