Observations

Across all four renders, the imagery is built from highly visible, thick, directional paint strokes that make skies, water, clothing, and faces visibly swirl and ripple. Saturated blues contrasted with cream, gold, brown, and red create an energetic, expressive surface, while landscapes, seascapes, and portrait figures are rendered with dense detail and emphatic contours.

Colours

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 .
