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

FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo

+ Outstanding chalk texture with authentic smudge marks and varying chalk pressure.
+ Perfectly captures natural, human-like handwriting with slight slants and size variations.
+ Excellent atmospheric lighting and background depth within the café environment.

− The layout is a bit cramped, causing one menu item to wrap awkwardly onto multiple lines.
− Minor repetition in the price rendering of the last item.

Wan 2.7 Pro

+ Highly legible and clean text with perfect spacing and alignment.
+ Accurately renders all requested text including the truncated item from the prompt.
+ Crisp composition that feels very professional and balanced.

− The handwriting lacks realistic chalk texture, appearing more like a digital font overlay.
− The strokes are too uniform and lack the natural grit of real chalk on a board.

Verdict: FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo delivers a much more authentic and gritty chalk texture that perfectly matches the requested 'handwritten-style', whereas Wan 2.7 Pro produces text that looks too clean and digital. Although Wan 2.7 Pro has better layout and text accuracy for the final item, FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo is the winner for its superior adherence to the artistic style and realistic material rendering.

Pose & Character Mashup

Editing

Edit instruction

“Use Image 1 as the exact pose reference and Image 2 as the character reference. Recreate the person/character from Image 2 in the exact dynamic pose and body position from Image 1. Keep the exact face, hair, clothing style/details, and expression from Image 2. Match the lighting and environment of Image 1. The final image must show the character from Image 2 performing the precise action/pose from Image 1 with perfect anatomy and natural integration.”

AI Judge Analysis

FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo

+ Successfully integrated character features from Image 2 such as glasses, scarf, and clothing
+ Correctly identified the person from Image 2 as the subject for the new pose

− Serious anatomical failure where the model includes two heads on one body
− Completely fails to replicate the physical pose from Image 1, creating a generic jump instead
− Poor hand and foot rendering

Wan 2.7 Pro

+ Perfectly maintains the environment and background from Image 1

− Fails the image editing task entirely by returning the source image (Image 1)
− Zero progress on character replacement from Image 2

Verdict: This was a difficult task that both models failed. FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo attempted to merge the characters but resulted in a nightmarish image with two heads and broken anatomy, losing the specific pose required. Wan 2.7 Pro simply returned Image 1 without any edits at all. FLUX.2 is the technical winner only for attempting the requested changes, despite the poor visual outcome.

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

FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo

+ Accurately places the passenger in the back seat as requested.
+ Excellent photorealism with gritty taxi texture and atmospheric night lighting.
+ The capybara's expression and posture perfectly match the 'professional' prompt description.

− The 'TAX' sign on the roof appears to be reversed or mirrored from the camera's perspective.
− The capybara's paws look slightly more like human/primate hands than capybara paws.

Wan 2.7 Pro

+ Crisp image quality with vibrant colors and clear New York background bokeh.
+ Successfully depicts the capybara in a dark jacket with a yellow cap and paws on the wheel.

− Fails a major spatial prompt instruction by placing the woman in the front passenger seat instead of the back seat.
− The perspective through the side window makes the car look unusually long or distorted in the interior space.
− The capybara's fur texture looks slightly more digital/artificial compared to Model A.

Verdict: FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo followed the prompt instructions much more accurately, correctly placing the businesswoman in the back seat to create the intended narrative of a 'normal' taxi ride. Wan 2.7 Pro failed on the spatial arrangement by placing the passenger in the front seat, though both models handled the complex task of a capybara driving quite well. FLUX.2 is the clear winner for its superior composition and more realistic cinematic lighting.

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

FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo

+ Excellent text legibility and font choice
+ Strong atmospheric lighting and moody color palette
+ Precise adherence to the thorn and web border description

− The parchment effect is a bit subtle compared to the dark background
− Composition is very centered and traditional

Wan 2.7 Pro

+ Beautifully detailed illustration with multiple layers and elements
+ Excellent use of the 'scroll' element for the secondary text
+ Very clean, polished graphic design aesthetic

− The text for 'Halloween Party Invitation' has slight kerning and structural issues on the 'v'
− The mood is more 'fairytale spooky' than the requested 'dark gothic'

Verdict: FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo followed the prompt more accurately in terms of mood and border details, providing a very atmospheric and readable invitation. Wan 2.7 Pro created a more complex and visually interesting illustration with great professional polish, though it leaned slightly more toward a whimsical style rather than the requested dark gothic tone.
