Claude Sonnet 5.540.8/100

Claude Sonnet 5.5: Newton's Mirror SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The near-field silhouettes, broad perspective and paint contact order are recognizable. Missing outer chains, truncated repetitions and absent ordered imagery within the main and reflected spheres substantially limit the reflection system. Sparse spherical highlights leave much of the curved room and emitter mapping unsupported, despite some plausible planar light sequences.

Kimi K332.8/100

Kimi K3: Newton's Mirror SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The room fills the complete portrait frame without visible borders or labels. The main sphere and airborne black are convincingly placed within the portrait frame. Paint ordering is supported, but its contact and transport history remains weakly expressed. Symmetric wall ghosts, inverted floor imagery and panel echoes establish a basic mirror system. Diffuse gradients dominate, with little ordered nested imagery or repeated emitter mapping on either planar or spherical surfaces. The wall images sit too low, and the floor image is unusually large and low.

Selfie

Different prompts

Claude Sonnet 5.579.0/100

Claude Sonnet 5.5: Selfie SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The centered coral squid has a friendly, composed expression and a balanced flower-like silhouette. Eight thick arms and two slender tentacles remain visibly connected, with no inverted parts. The mantle is elongated rather than compact, and the arm spacing is uneven. Soft shading gives volume, but dense stippling weakens the requested smooth matte finish; the broad background halo makes depth less precise.

Kimi K377.5/100

Kimi K3: Selfie SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The indigo creature and warm reflected counterpart create a balanced, contemplative composition. Equations, constellations and book emblems give the transformation meaning. Clean silhouettes and controlled glow support the scene, but minimally articulated legs, shallow spatial cues and smooth, generalized surfaces limit its anatomical and material richness.

Beach

Same prompt

Claude Sonnet 5.582.3/100

Claude Sonnet 5.5: Beach SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

A richly designed beach illustration combines radiant sunset bands, intricate palm fans and playful silhouettes within a cohesive purple, coral and turquoise palette. Carefully varied accessories reward close inspection, while overlapping foreground forms and shoreline layers organize the abundant activity. Dense palm strokes compete with focal subjects; animal anatomy, relative scales and reflected silhouettes remain simplified.

Kimi K373.3/100

Kimi K3: Beach SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The sunset, animals, birds, beach toys and reflections fulfill the brief in a lively, readable composition. Clean silhouettes and a rich sky provide appeal. Bodies and people remain diagrammatic, depth is shallow, and the inverted figure reflections cross matte-looking sand without convincing surface lighting. Materials and movement are mostly conveyed through flat shapes.

Mona Lisa

Different prompts

Claude Sonnet 5.563.8/100

Claude Sonnet 5.5: Mona Lisa SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The crossed hands, dark dress, restrained smile and winding landscape clearly recall the Mona Lisa. Replication is limited by the frontal symmetry, wide eyes, elongated neck and flattened fingers. Soft facial shading provides volume, but heavy darkness and pervasive crackle obscure forms. The composition is coherent; the landscape and fabric remain visibly schematic.

Kimi K348.5/100

Kimi K3: Mona Lisa SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The centered portrait, dark veil, folded hands and misty landscape clearly evoke Mona Lisa. Replication is limited by the elongated neck, simplified facial proportions and oval hands with shallow finger marks. Soft shading gives some volume, but pervasive blur substitutes for controlled painterly transitions and precise detail.

Raccoon

Same prompt

Claude Sonnet 5.576.3/100

Claude Sonnet 5.5: Raccoon SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The raccoon clearly rides on the dog's back while the dog grips the jet ski controls. Expressive faces, vivid colors and a sweeping wake make the scene appealing. Visible limbs connect coherently, but overlapping steering paws and an indistinct control mounting weaken construction. Flat character lighting and simplified water limit depth and material realism.

Kimi K376.3/100

Kimi K3: Raccoon SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The raccoon rides on the dog's back, and the dog's paw meets a steering assembly connected to the red hull. Expressive faces, a warm sunset and sweeping spray create an appealing composition. Crowded body overlaps obscure some limb connections, and the raccoon's right ear appears slightly separated. Flat shading and stylized reflections limit volume and depth.

Pelican

Claude Sonnet 5.576.8/100

Claude Sonnet 5.5: Pelican SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The pelican is immediately recognizable, with an expressive face, generous bill and appealing cycling pose. Spokes, chain, feathers and scarf provide purposeful detail. The bicycle largely holds together, though overlapping angular legs obscure the far foot’s pedal contact. Clean outlines and balanced composition succeed; flat surfaces and limited directional lighting constrain depth.

Kimi K372.8/100

Kimi K3: Pelican SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The pelican and bicycle are immediately recognizable, with an expressive bill, flowing scarf and cheerful composition. Both legs remain attached, but pedal connections and wing contact with the handlebar are weakly resolved. Wheel alignment and landscape layers are coherent. Clean outlines support the illustration, while flat surfaces and limited lighting keep it short of masterful execution.
