Notes: More western style you can add 'comic' but this might end up making it have panels, you can try to add artist tags for western style artists on Danbooru to help enhance the effect you desire (ie: find an artist then add their tag, preferably they should have upward of one thousand entries in danbooru). You can also negate 'anime' and 'toony', 'cartoon'.
Check out these websites for tags used in Illustrious and Pony (keep in mind they are NSFW but you can change the settings as necessary): https://e621.net/ (furry) https://danbooru.donmai.us/ https://gelbooru.com/
