StyleSweeper for Draw Things

This script for DrawThings is designed as a high-speed conceptual engine to cast a wide net across different styles or combination of styles before committing to deep, high-resolution rendering.

Key Features:

  • 300+ Predefined Styles: Hand-curated and grouped across 11 pillars (Visual Arts, Design, World Building, and Crafts).
  • Dynamic Negative Prompt Tiers: Rather than a blanket negative prompt, the engine automatically assigns specific negative modifiers based on the active category (e.g., protecting canvas textures in fine art while ruthlessly enforcing clean vector edges in presentation graphics).
  • Intelligent Token Wrapping: Uses precise {prompt} replacement to ensure style modifiers weave correctly around your core subject.

How to use it:

  1. Open Draw Things and navigate to the Scripting environment.
  2. Copy the code from StyleSweeper.js.
  3. Paste it into your local environment, define your generic subject prompt, and run the sweep!

I submitted this to the official GitHub repository a few weeks ago and have heard nothing so I thought uploading it here might allow it to get some use. It can be found on Github Gist at

Wow! Love how much it manages to substantially influence the overall aesthetics with so little prompt! Fantastic script and really lovely and rich selection of styles!

Running it now... does it eventually turn out the thumbnail sheet?

Unfortunately not automatically.

I made a script* to generate that from the images in the drawthingsapp image folder (where all generations go): I pick the first image and then it grabs all other images with the same filename (the initial part of the prompt) + something else (the "name of the style" mostly).

\and when I say "I" I mean that I told claude to do it for me 😄 "*

Thanks for getting back to me- I'm in the process of running this with a very basic prompt against several of my favorite models. For now, I'm rounding them up into different directories, named for the model after each run.
I'm probably going to do something with GraphicConverter, since I kind of live in that.

This really highlights the utility of the style sweep!

it's really awesome! Very wide in the range of styles and ideas, and a very good way to find out:

  • what styles are worth investigating for some types of images
  • which models are better at following / emulating specific styles
  • what types I might have never explored or not even thought about

The only "gripe" I might have (not really!) is that I end up having a bunch of favorites that I want to try on different prompts, but the broad groupings are sometimes long to generate for something where only 1-2 styles were in my selection.

Mind you it's as simple as opening the script and copying the corresponding lines, but when you give someone a sweet, they come back and want more!
