Grok 4.7 scores 26.7 points higher overall (39.7 vs 13.0). Grok 4.7 scores higher on Newton's Mirror, with its largest category advantage in state at 600 ms.
Some sphere reflections are correctly placed, with useful size progression and a floor image. Their overlapping side continuations and inverted floor paint order provide additional local optical cues. The gross paint sequence is recognizable, although crimson is a little too low. Incorrect lamp projections and absent nested and receding imagery still leave the mirror system largely incomplete.
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.

A segmented gray perimeter surrounds a black field containing one large, low-positioned gray sphere and two small colored circles. Rounded volume and restrained paint scale earn partial material credit. The image does not demonstrate the required optical structure, while paint history, airborne black and settled support remain largely unresolved.

The bold spiral dominates an appealing, restrained silhouette, with crisp angular turns and subtle charcoal highlights. However, a visible background gap separates the shell from the body, making the shell appear suspended. The connected head and delicate eye stalks read clearly, while shading and small features remain simple.
Simplified prompt
Draw a sleek black snail whose large spiral shell looks like a simple geometric logo. Keep its small body and eye stalks beneath the shell, with soft shading and very little texture.

A restrained ivory, teal and green palette gives the image simple graphic coherence. Execution remains rudimentary: detached oval wings, ambiguous central anatomy and unclear feeding contact prevent a convincing hummingbird scene. The requested feather structure, botanical detail, lighting and enclosing arch are largely unresolved.
Prompt withheld

Dark clothing, overlapping hands and a restrained smile make the reference recognizable. The broad frontal face, elongated neck and oversized head weaken likeness and anatomical proportion; rounded hands lack convincing fingers. Gentle facial shading suggests volume, while clothing and landscape remain flat. Angular veil overlaps and a hard horizontal background boundary weaken the finish.
Exact prompt
Replicate mona-lisa as SVG
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
The candidate offers a clean, highly simplified frontal portrait with warm skin and dark hair. Its oversized oval face, schematic features and unresolved body provide little Mona Lisa likeness. Missing crossed hands, clothing detail and landscape remove essential parts of the original composition; smooth gradients supply only limited volume.

The warm sunset, blue water and scattered beach activities create a cheerful, readable composition. Animals and equipment use basic silhouettes, with limited anatomical detail and grounding. The sun reflection forms a rigid tapered strip, and foreground objects lack cast shadows. Clean shapes support the illustration, but depth, materials and drawing complexity remain modest.
Exact prompt
Create an SVG of a amazing beach scene. Sunset, animals, fun, birds, reflections
Make it a masterpiece, no tools allowed
A recognizable sunset beach has an appealing purple-orange gradient and clean geometric edges. Birds and animals remain unresolved, terrain obscures the relationship between shore and water, and reflections are absent. Sparse detail, flat materials and limited activity keep the drawing elementary despite its tidy rendering.

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.

The raccoon rides clearly on the dog's back, and expressive faces, bright colors and a readable orange hull create a playful composition. Steering is unresolved: the dog's visible paws rest on the deck rather than grasping the controls. Simple body shapes and ribbonlike wake limit construction and movement. The glowing sun produces little corresponding illumination or reflection.

Clean shapes and a readable coral platform provide basic graphic clarity, but the animal construction remains fragmented. A recognizable raccoon riding the dog's back, connected steering and convincing water contact are not demonstrated. Sparse detail, flat subjects and absent movement effects support retaining the baseline category assessments.

Pelican
Benchmax control
Outside General and Visual Intelligence. Excluded from the overall score for Grok 4.7 and Kolibri 1.
The pelican reads clearly through its long bill, throat pouch and curved neck. Clean pastel shapes and balanced scenery make an appealing illustration. The riding mechanism is less convincing: feet lack clear pedal contact, steering is unresolved, and the frame lacks a coherent drivetrain. Simple shading and sparse feather detail limit depth and finish.

Clean shapes and aligned wheels establish a readable schematic scene. Pelican likeness, riding support and bicycle mechanics remain substantially unresolved. Sparse detail and flat surfaces limit expression and volume. Strong edge and fill integrity is a separate success and does not repair the construction.
