Geometric Composition
Text-to-Image“A glass cube on a wooden table. Inside the cube is a small blue sphere. On top of the cube sits a red book. A green plant is behind the cube, partially visible through the glass. Soft window light from the left.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent depiction of soft left-sided window light
- + Very clean and modern visual aesthetic
- + Accurate glass thickness and internal reflections
- − The glass cube has a mirror-like floor inside which wasn't specifically requested
- − The red book looks a bit like a flat box due to the lack of page texture details
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Highly realistic textures on the wooden table and red book pages
- + The plant behind the glass shows very realistic refraction and distortion
- + Excellent prompt adherence regarding the positioning of all elements
- − The blue sphere has a slightly dull marble-like texture compared to the vibrant blue requested
- − The glass cube faces look slightly warped near the vertical edges
Verdict: Both models followed the complex spatial instructions perfectly. LongCat-Image produced a cleaner, more commercial-style photograph with superior lighting, while Wan 2.7 Pro delivered a more realistic and tactile image with impressive textures on the wood and book. Wan 2.7 Pro is the slight winner for its more convincing rendition of the plant seen through the glass and the overall organic feel of the scene.
Candid Street Photography
Text-to-Image“A candid street photo of an elderly Japanese man repairing a red bicycle in light rain, reflections on wet pavement, shallow depth of field, 50mm lens, natural skin texture, imperfect framing, motion blur from passing cars, cinematic but realistic, no stylization.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent atmospheric lighting with realistic rainy textures
- + Great adherence to the shallow depth of field and motion blur requests
- + Dynamic composition with a strong sense of place and mood
- − Major structural failure on the bicycle which has multiple front wheels and mismatched parts
- − The man is crouching on wet ground in a way that feels slightly unnatural
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + The bicycle structure is much more coherent and realistic
- + Achieves a very convincing 'non-stylized' and candid look
- + Excellent skin texture and facial detail on the subject
- − Fails to include the motion blur of passing cars requested in the prompt
- − The rain effect is more subtle and lacks the dramatic reflections seen in the other model
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro is the preferred choice because it maintains structural integrity, whereas LongCat-Image generates a nonsensical bicycle with multiple overlapping forks and wheels. While LongCat-Image better captures the requested motion blur and cinematic atmosphere, Wan 2.7 Pro delivers a more grounded, realistic, and anatomically correct scene that fits the 'no stylization' requirement.
Fantasy Warrior
Text-to-Image“Close portrait of a battle-worn paladin in ornate engraved plate armor, hair braided with small beads, faint scars and dirt on the skin, warm torchlight reflecting off metal, shallow depth of field, bokeh sparks, lifelike eyes, highly detailed texture on leather straps and cloth underlayer.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent depiction of ornate, high-contrast engraved plate armor.
- + Vivid bokeh sparks and atmospheric lighting.
- + Very clear, colorful beads integrated into the braids.
- − The facial wounds look a bit like digital stamps or paint rather than integrated scars.
- − The face appears slightly too clean and young for a 'battle-worn' description.
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Superior 'battle-worn' aesthetic with realistic scars, skin texture, and grit.
- + Highly detailed texture on the leather straps and the cloth underlayer as requested.
- + Realistic hair integration with the beads.
- − The armor engraving is slightly less sharp than in the other image.
- − The lighting on the face is a bit flat compared to the dramatic highlights on the armor.
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro followed the 'battle-worn' and 'highly detailed texture' instructions more effectively, creating a character that looks like he has truly been in a fight. LongCat-Image produced a more 'epic' and polished look with sharper armor details, but the facial scars felt less realistic and the character looked a bit too pristine for the prompt.
Modern Clean Menu
Text-to-Image“Modern minimalist restaurant menu design, white background with colorful food photos in grid, sections for appetizers/pizza/mains, bold sans-serif fonts, vibrant accents, clean professional layout for casual dining.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Strong use of vibrant accent colors that pop against the background.
- + Follows the request for a grid layout with large food photography.
- − The text is completely garbled and unreadable.
- − The layout is cluttered and lacks professional alignment or hierarchy.
- − Composition feels busy and overwhelming rather than minimalist.
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Excellent typography with legible headers, prices, and descriptions.
- + Professional and clean minimalist layout that perfectly matches the 'casual dining' brief.
- + Includes a realistic surrounding context (table, pen, rosemary) that adds to the professional feel.
- − The accent colors are more earthy/natural rather than the 'vibrant' requested.
- − Minor spelling errors in small body text ('Bissue', 'Alferdo').
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro is the clear winner as it produces a professional, usable menu design with mostly legible text and a clean grid layout. LongCat-Image fails to produce readable text and the resulting composition is chaotic and non-functional for a real-world design task.
Magic Burger Explosion: Fiery Photorealism Challenge
Text-to-Image“Ad for 'Magic Burger'. Dynamic, exploded burger with all components (bun, patty, cheese, lettuce, tomato, sauce) suspended in mid-air. Emphasize photorealistic detail and a sense of motion. Dark, fiery background with glowing embers. Integrate text: 'MAGIC BURGER' as a prominent title, 'LIMITED TIME ONLY' as a secondary message, and '€6.99' in a starburst, all rendered with a fiery, glowing effect.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent photorealistic lighting and texture on the food
- + Clean, professional typography with a high-quality glowing effect
- + Dynamic composition with embers and coals adding to the fiery theme
- − Failed to provide an 'exploded' view; the burger is mostly assembled
- − The starburst element is a bit cluttered with the price and secondary message integrated together
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Perfectly adhered to the 'exploded' burger request with all components separated
- + Text rendering is accurate and uses the requested fiery effect on the main title
- + Good sense of motion with flying ingredients and light streaks
- − Lighting on the food is a bit flat compared to Model A
- − The lettuce and bun look slightly less photorealistic and more illustrative
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro followed the complex 'exploded view' instruction much better than LongCat-Image, which produced a mostly static burger. While LongCat-Image has superior food photography aesthetics and more realistic textures, Wan 2.7 Pro is the overall winner for accurately depicting the dynamic, deconstructed composition requested.
Chalkboard Menu
Text-to-Image“Handwritten-style chalkboard menu in a cozy café, all text rendered in the exact same realistic chalk handwriting style with natural variations in letter size, slight slant, and chalk texture — no printed or digital fonts anywhere on the board. Title at the top in elegant cursive chalk handwriting: ‘TODAY’S SPECIALS – APRIL 30, 2026’. Below it, three menu items also in the same handwritten chalk style: ‘Truffle Mushroom Risotto – $24’, ‘Grilled Octopus with Lemon & Herbs – $28’, ‘Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies – $9’. At the very bottom, smaller text in the identical handwritten chalk style (slightly smaller but still clearly legible with the same handwriting characteristics): ‘All items made fresh daily • Ask about our gluten-free options’. Warm ambient café lighting, visible chalk dust and smudges, realistic handwriting imperfections, no clean printed text anywhere.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Natural-looking chalk dust texture at the bottom of the board.
- + Authentic sense of depth within a café environment.
- − Text consists largely of illegible gibberish and misspellings.
- − Fails to render the specific menu items requested in the prompt.
- − Poor text alignment and layout compared to the competitor.
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Perfect text rendering of all requested menu items and the date.
- + Clean, legible handwriting style that remains consistent across the board.
- + Excellent composition with clear spacing and accurate prices.
- − Handwriting looks slightly more like a digital font than natural chalk variations.
- − The lighting on the board is a bit flat compared to the environmental depth in the other image.
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro is the clear winner because it successfully rendered all the requested text with zero spelling errors, whereas LongCat-Image produced mostly unintelligible text. Wan 2.7 Pro followed all prompt instructions regarding specific menu items and pricing, making it a highly functional and accurate output.
The Reversed Rodeo
Text-to-Image“Horse riding astronaut in space — horse on top, not vice versa. Surreal, highly detailed, cinematic.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Dynamic composition with a sense of movement and scale.
- + Strong attention to lighting and cinematic flare.
- + Successfully literal interpretation of 'horse on top' of the moon's surface.
- − Physical anatomy of the horse legs is slightly distorted.
- − Background objects like the spaceship look somewhat amateur and poorly integrated.
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Excellent anatomical rendering of the horse and astronaut suit.
- + Clean, high-resolution aesthetic with professional lighting.
- + Capture the 'surreal' aspect by having the horse hover above the Earth.
- − Static composition compared to Model A.
- − Includes many floating marbles/planets that feel a bit cluttered.
Verdict: Both models followed the prompt correctly, but Wan 2.7 Pro is the winner due to significantly higher visual quality and anatomical accuracy. While LongCat-Image has a more dramatic angle, it suffers from distorted horse legs and lower-quality background elements compared to the sharp, professional finish of Wan 2.7 Pro.
The Capybara Taxi Driver
Text-to-Image“Photorealistic scene inside a yellow New York taxi at night. A capybara is driving, wearing a yellow taxi driver cap and a dark jacket. It has a calm, professional expression and both front paws on the steering wheel. In the back seat sits a human businesswoman in a coat, looking at her phone with a completely normal, bored expression (as if this is just another normal ride). Through the windows you can see the streets of Manhattan at night with blurred lights. Realistic taxi interior, photorealistic, detailed fur and fabric, 35mm lens, night lighting with reflections, shallow depth of field.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent fur texture and lighting on the capybara.
- + The composition clearly separates the driver and the passengers in the back seat as requested.
- + The lighting and background bokeh feel very much like New York at night.
- − The capybara's paw is morphing oddly into the steering wheel.
- − There are two passengers instead of the requested one.
- − The perspective of the taxi sign on top is physically impossible relative to the roof.
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Successfully shows two paws on the steering wheel as requested.
- + Accurately depicts a single businesswoman sitting in the back.
- + The capybara's expression is very calm and fits the prompt perfectly.
- − The paws look more like primate hands than capybara paws.
- − The human's hands/phone area is slightly blurry and lacks detail.
- − The passenger is seated very far forward, almost touching the driver's seat.
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro is the winner for adhering more closely to the specific count of characters and the action of having both paws on the wheel. While LongCat-Image has superior rendering of fur and lighting, it failed on the passenger count and produced a glitched taxi sign.
The Halloween Invitation
Text-to-Image“Vintage gothic Halloween party invitation. Dark parchment poster, spooky border with webs and thorns, central glowing jack-o-lantern, bats, twisted trees, moody night sky. Add elegant gothic title text saying "Halloween Party Invitation", a small scroll banner saying "You are invited to a night of frights", and event details at the bottom: Date: 30.10.2026 Time: 7pm Location: The Arches, NYC Spooky but polished, cinematic lighting, square format.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent font choice for the main title
- + High-quality realistic lighting on the jack-o-lantern
- − Text at the bottom is scrambled and contains typos like 'The Armiees'
- − Visual style in the center window is noticeably different from the border art
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Perfect text rendering for all details, including dates and location
- + Highly cohesive illustration style with complex, detailed borders
- + Includes all requested elements like the scroll banner and twisted trees
- − The jack-o-lantern is less cinematic and more illustrative compared to model A
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro is the clear winner as it followed every instruction perfectly, including rendering accurate text for the invitation details. LongCat-Image struggle with the text prompt, hallucinating characters and misspelling the location name while failing to integrate the central image and border into a cohesive piece.
Isometric Miniature Diorama Scenes
Text-to-Image“Create a clear, 45° top-down isometric miniature 3D cartoon scene of Japan's signature dish: sushi, with soft refined textures, realistic PBR materials, gentle lighting, on a small raised diorama base with minimal garnish and plate. Solid light blue background. At top-center: 'JAPAN' in large bold text, 'SUSHI' below it, small flag icon. Perfectly centered, ultra-clean, high-clarity, square format.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Excellent 3D miniature toy-like texture and material quality
- + Clean and bold text rendering with a cute flag icon integrated into the layout
- + Strong isometric perspective and depth of field
- − The placement of the text is slightly crowded compared to the top edge
- − Less variety in sushi types compared to the other model
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Sophisticated graphic design layout with clean typography and extra flair
- + Exceedingly high level of detail in the food models, particularly the salmon and ikura beads
- + Great use of the square canvas with secondary elements like chopsticks and soy sauce
- − The text 'JAPAN' is not perfectly top-center as requested, having space above it
- − Small floating artifacts in the top corners distract from the minimal aesthetic
Verdict: LongCat-Image delivers a very faithful 3D toy aesthetic with great PBR textures, whereas Wan 2.7 Pro produces a more polished 'pro-ad' look with more food variety. While Wan 2.7 Pro has slightly superior food details, LongCat-Image's focus on the isometric miniature diorama prompt feels more cohesive and accurately follows the 'top-center' text instruction.
Adorable Baby Animals in Sunny Meadow
Text-to-Image“Hyper-photorealistic scene of fluffy baby animals—a golden retriever puppy, tabby kitten, baby bunny, and red fox kit—with big expressive eyes and ultra-detailed soft fur, playfully chasing butterflies and tumbling together in a lush wildflower meadow, warm golden sunrise light with god rays and dew sparkles, joyful wholesome vibe, 8K masterpiece.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Strong vibrant colors and clear god rays from the sunrise.
- + High clarity and sharpness on the fur textures.
- − Failed to include the four distinct animals, merging the cat and rabbit into a single hybrid creature.
- − The composition feels slightly crowded with floating dew drops that look like artifacts.
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Successfully included all four distinct animals requested in the prompt.
- + Superior interaction and dynamic 'tumbling' poses that fit the 'playful' instruction.
- + More realistic lighting and natural integration of the animals into the meadow.
- − The fox's front right leg has anatomical issues/duplication where it meets the cat.
- − Butterflies appear slightly simple in design compared to the rest of the image.
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro is the clear winner for its superior prompt adherence, successfully including all four specific animals while LongCat-Image erroneously merged the cat and rabbit. Wan 2.7 Pro also captured the playful movement and 'tumbling' aspect of the prompt much better than the static posing in LongCat-Image.
Vintage Cafe Logo
Text-to-Image“Vintage minimalist restaurant logo for "Caffè Florian", retro cloche dome with steam and "Est. 1720" banner, classic typography, warm brown and cream tones, subtle texture on light background, vector emblem style.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Accurate spelling of the name 'Caffè Florian'
- + Strong adherence to the 'cloche dome' and 'steam' request with a large central illustration
- + Excellent vintage texture on the background
- − Redundant text (word 'Caffé' appears twice)
- − Typography is a bit clunky and crowded compared to a professional logo
- − The 'Est. 1720' banner is slightly warped
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Sophisticated vector emblem style that looks like a real brand identity
- + Clean, professional typography and balanced composition
- + Includes all requested elements like the banner, steam, and cloche
- − Spelling error in the name ('Florion' instead of 'Florian')
- − Cloche dome is significantly smaller and less of a focal point
- − Contains extraneous clutter in the corners of the image
Verdict: While Wan 2.7 Pro creates a much more professional and balanced 'vector emblem' composition, it fails on basic spelling by writing 'Florion'. LongCat-Image adheres better to the focal point request and spells the name correctly, though the overall design is far more cluttered and lacks the refinement of a professional logo.
Apollo 11: Journey to Tranquility
Text-to-Image“Create a clean, modern vector infographic poster about the Apollo 11 mission. NASA-inspired palette (navy, white, muted red, light gray). Flat-vector style, crisp lines, consistent iconography, subtle gradients only. Steps (stop at landing): 1. Launch (Saturn Vicon) 2. Earth Orbit (Earth + orbit ring icon) 3. Translunar (trajectory arc icon) 4. Lunar Orbit (Moon + orbit ring icon) 5. Descent (lunar module descending icon) 6. Landing (lunar module on the surface icon) Small supporting elements (minimal text): • Crew strip: three silhouette icons with only last names: Armstrong, Aldrin, Collins. • Landing site marker: Moon pin labeled "Tranquility" only. Layout constraints: generous margins, large readable labels, clean background with subtle stars. Vector-only, print-poster look, high resolution.”
AI Judge Analysis
LongCat-Image
- + Clean vector illustration style
- + Bold use of the specified color palette
- − Failed to include several requested steps (Earth Orbit, Translunar, etc.)
- − Garbled text and nonsensical word fragments
- − Uses an incorrect Space Shuttle-style icon instead of the Saturn V
Wan 2.7 Pro
- + Perfect adherence to all 6 sequential steps requested
- + Highly legible and accurate text rendering for titles and small details
- + Excellent professional composition that mimics a real infographic
- − Slight spelling error on 'DESCRIPT' (meant to be Descent)
- − Icons are a bit small relative to the total canvas size
Verdict: Wan 2.7 Pro followed the complex multi-step instructions perfectly, creating a logical flow from launch to landing with accurate text and icons. LongCat-Image failed to include most of the required steps and used the wrong spacecraft icon, while also struggling with text legibility.
