GPT 5.525.4/100

GPT 5.5: Newton's Mirror SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The paint ordering and separate black bead support part of the physical state, but adhesion and rotational transport remain only partly established. The sweeping cyan arc and long crimson lobes do not clearly communicate the limited time since their respective impacts. The main sphere is too large and too low, and the black bead is below its required projected position. Displaced isolated sphere images, a flattened floor echo and missing recursive, nested and emitter reflections provide little coherent optical structure. The colored paint is excessively bulky for the specified quantities.

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.

Ling 3.1 Flash: Newton's Mirror SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

Central placement, separate airborne black paint and the elongated crimson coating earn substantial state and placement credit. Cyan contact remains unresolved. A few isolated sphere images provide limited optical evidence, while the defining repeated mirror structure is missing. Readable opaque metallic volume and restrained paint scale justify increased material credit. Core: 61.5/170; including the floor reward: 61.5/180.

Selfie

Different prompts

GPT 5.541.2/100

GPT 5.5: Selfie SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

Six pale, scaled lobes form a balanced radial arrangement, but they remain separate capsules rather than an interlocking serpent knot. There are no crossings, alternating overlaps, or crisp inner bends; the central hexagon is an isolated outline. Small outward-facing heads sit within the lobes without integrated necks. Soft shading and tidy contours provide some finish, while repetitive oval scales and cartoon faces limit organic credibility.

Simplified prompt

Draw a pale six-headed snake woven into a symmetrical knot. Its body passes over and under itself around a small hexagonal opening, with six little heads facing outward. Add lifelike scales, curved muscles and shadows without losing the clear knot shape.

Ling 3.1 Flash77.0/100

Ling 3.1 Flash: Selfie SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

An appealing, coherent storybook ant with a clear expression, complete silhouette and readable signal mechanism. Clean curves and warm accents support the composition, while simplified joints, schematic hardware, limited material differentiation and modest light interaction constrain its finish.

Mona Lisa

Different prompts

GPT 5.517.3/100

GPT 5.5: Mona Lisa SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The veil, restrained smile, crossed hands and muted landscape establish Mona Lisa references. The oversized frontal face and schematic features weaken likeness and expression, while fingerless tapered hand shapes leave anatomy unresolved. Clean contours and balanced framing provide coherence, but sparse garment detail, broad landscape bands and shallow shading limit the portrait's sophistication.

Ling 3.1 Flash24.0/100

Ling 3.1 Flash: Mona Lisa SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

A basic, uneven Mona Lisa interpretation with a clear facial focal point, articulated eyes and modest tonal volume. Weak likeness, oversized head proportions, unclear shoulders, curled bare arms and indistinct hands limit replication. The compressed composition and rectangular torso weaken an otherwise coherent earthy palette.

Beach

Same prompt

GPT 5.535.6/100

GPT 5.5: Beach SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The sunset, palms, birds, playful animals and ball clearly establish the requested beach scene. Warm sky gradients and clean silhouettes make it appealing. Animal construction is underdeveloped: torso and limb connections are unclear, especially in the round-eared foreground figure. The dolphin lacks a convincing splash, and broad reflection bands suggest sunset light without resolving its behavior on water.

Ling 3.1 Flash65.7/100

Ling 3.1 Flash: Beach SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

A coherent sunset illustration with harmonious color, clean silhouettes and readable beach details. Its calm composition works well, while playful activity is modest. Simplified animal anatomy, shallow shoreline layering, repetitive foliage and a geometric reflection limit drawing sophistication and naturalism.

Raccoon

Same prompt

GPT 5.543.7/100

GPT 5.5: Raccoon SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The raccoon's masked face, bright hull and sweeping wake make the scene readable and lively. The dog is much less resolved: its head is ambiguous, overlapping brown forms obscure its anatomy, and its paws do not visibly grip the controls. Smooth shapes and cheerful colors provide appeal, but weak steering construction and limited depth keep the drawing uneven.

Ling 3.1 Flash63.1/100

Ling 3.1 Flash: Raccoon SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

An appealing sunset cartoon with recognizable animals, expressive faces and coherent landscape layers. The sky and warm water streaks provide its strongest rendering. Ambiguous seated support, stiff forelegs, a shallow hull and an unclear steering connection limit construction. Clean shapes and readable accessories add finish, while restrained spray and flat surfaces limit material and motion effects.

Pelican

Outside General and Visual Intelligence. Excluded from the overall score for GPT 5.5 and Ling 3.1 Flash.

GPT 5.564.3/100

GPT 5.5: Pelican SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

The oversized bill, bright bicycle and sunset create an appealing, recognizable cartoon. Riding mechanics are less convincing: the wing has no clear steering contact, leg attachments are uneven, and feet do not visibly engage pedals. A dark notch complicates the rear neck junction. Clean contours and orderly spokes provide polish, while simplified anatomy and lighting limit depth.

Ling 3.1 Flash: Pelican SVG benchmark
Researcher observations

A clean, appealing pelican illustration with a readable bicycle and coherent landscape. Bill shading, feather layers and faint wheel shadows provide modest depth. Uncertain pedal contact, simplified leg construction and limited material rendering keep the result within competent illustration quality.
