Gemini 3.8 Flash scores 23.4 points higher overall (46.1 vs 22.7). Gemini 3.8 Flash scores higher on Newton's Mirror, with its largest category advantage in state at 600 ms.
Crimson is carried well down the camera-facing surface, supporting its earlier interaction. The depiction remains highly simplified, with imperfect material rendering. Isolated wall and floor images and a few highlights provide scant reflective evidence; displaced first reflections, missing receding chains and absent nested sphere and emitter imagery leave the room's optical structure largely unsupported.
Simplified prompt
A shiny steel ball spins in a room with mirrored walls and a mirrored floor. Red, cyan and black paint float above it. Gravity suddenly switches on. Draw the scene a moment later, as the ball drops and paint begins landing on its spinning surface. Show the reflections repeating through the room.
The exact prompt is held back to prevent benchmaxxing.
Rounded sphere volume, compact colored forms and crimson-below-cyan ordering provide limited agreement. The visible paint does not establish the required interaction history, the sphere and black blob are displaced from the prescribed projection, and most of the defining mirror-room structure is missing or unresolved. The faint reflection echoes earn limited optical credit.

The dominant four-point silhouette, luminous color progression, raised brows and enormous grin closely fulfill the brief. Attached, secondary limbs support the exuberant expression. Clean facial drawing and glossy eyes give strong character, while shallow depth, minimally articulated extremities and visible steps in the outer glow limit refinement.
Simplified prompt
Draw a glowing four-point star creature with big eyes and an exaggerated grin. Blend blue, purple and pink across its body and add a few tiny sparkles. Keep its star shape easy to recognize.

A charming palette and three expressive companions make the concept recognizable. The dominant paper enclosure overwhelms the small group, the plum character lacks a clear brace silhouette, and the cuddle remains difficult to trace. Sparse furnishings, ambiguous folds and generalized shading limit the promised lived-in richness and tactile depth.

The dark clothing, overlapping hands and hazy landscape make the Mona Lisa reference recognizable. Replication is limited by the frontal, elongated face, heavy mouth and chin, and poorly resolved hands, wrists and forearm. Soft shading gives some volume, but muddy transitions, blunt landscape shapes and rigid facial modeling weaken the portrait’s expression and painterly character.
Exact prompt
Replicate mona-lisa as SVG
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
The portrait has a continuous body silhouette, attached sleeves and hands, and simple landscape depth. Its oversized pale head enclosure nearly erases the expression, while separated fists, ochre clothing and frontal construction weaken Mona Lisa likeness. Sparse detail, flat materials and ambiguous facial layers leave the drawing seriously unresolved.

A cheerful, recognizable beach illustration with playful accessories and mostly clean silhouettes. Sunset colors and soft glow supply atmosphere, but abbreviated anatomy, unexplained airborne animals, weak ground contact and absent water reflections limit physical coherence. Small details add interest without consistently resolving construction or materials.

A dark steel room has four pillars and two warm ceiling lights. A wooden plank is placed over a computer mouse, with a blueberry on the plank above it. Draw the scene a few seconds later, showing how the objects settle and how the light, shadows and surfaces look.

Expressive animals, a bold diagonal hull and sweeping spray create an appealing action scene. The raccoon's support on the dog's back is unclear, and the dog lacks a readable paw-to-control grip and connected steering assembly. Clean graphic shapes and lively accessories are stronger than the anatomical construction. Sunset illumination and reflections remain largely decorative.
Exact prompt
Generate an SVG: A raccoon sits on a dog's back while the dog steers a jet ski
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
Recognizable animals and clean shapes give the scene charm, but the requested steering action is visibly incomplete. Simplified joints, weak vehicle construction and uncertain water contact limit physical coherence. Flat lighting, sparse functional detail and a small focal group keep the illustration basic despite its tidy edges.

Pelican
Benchmax control
Outside General and Visual Intelligence. Excluded from the overall score for Gemini 3.8 Flash and Glyph Cluster.
The pelican’s enormous bill, lively feathers and orange bicycle create a clear, appealing composition. Basket contents, spokes and facial details reward inspection. Both legs connect to the body, but foot-to-pedal placement and wing-to-handlebar contact are ambiguous. Bicycle mechanics and lighting remain schematic, limiting an otherwise polished illustration.

Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
A readable cartoon with open framing, aligned bicycle wheels and modest atmospheric effects. Pelican likeness is approximate, while the narrow neck, crowded feet, absent steering contact and unclear drivetrain weaken the riding action. Clean shapes help presentation, but shallow space and inconsistent shading limit the finish.
