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 [klein] 9B

+ Excellent chalk texture with realistic smudges and erase marks
+ Authentic handwritten variation in letter scale and baseline
+ Followed the elegant cursive style requested for the title

− Minor spelling error at the bottom ('fress' instead of 'fresh')
− The text is slightly less legible than a clean digital font

Wan 2.7

+ Perfectly legible text with zero spelling errors
+ Balanced composition with decorative dividers
+ Rich background environment with lights and plants adding to the cafe vibe

− Text looks like a digital font or vector sticker rather than chalk
− Fails to provide the 'elegant cursive' style for the title
− The letters lack the grainy chalk texture requested in the prompt

Verdict: FLUX.2 [klein] 9B followed the stylistic instructions much more closely, delivering a rough, authentic chalk-on-board texture with genuine handwriting variations. Wan 2.7 produced a cleaner and more attractive overall scene, but the text appears to be a digital font overlay, failing the core 'natural chalk texture' and 'cursive' requirements of the prompt.

Outfit Transfer Challenge

Editing

Edit instruction

“Use Image 1 as the base person. Dress them in the exact elaborate outfit from Image 2 (including all layers, accessories, jewelry, and shoes). Carefully adapt the clothing to the body shape and pose in Image 1 while maintaining realistic fabric behavior, correct proportions, and perfect lighting/shadow matching. Keep the person’s exact face, hair, and background completely unchanged.”

AI Judge Analysis

FLUX.2 [klein] 9B

+ Successfully used the exact clothing items from Image 2, including the specific plaid scarf pattern and pea coat style.
+ Preserved the person's face and unique vitiligo patterns with high accuracy.
+ Correctly matched the pose and lighting of the person to the new clothing.

− Included extra jewelry (long gold beads) that were not present in Image 2.
− Slightly changed the background details, adding more debris on the beach.

Wan 2.7

+ Successfully changed the person's pose to show full-body attire including shoes.
+ Preserved the person's face and unique hair pattern well.

− Completely failed to use the outfit from Image 2, instead generating a generic black coat with gold embroidery.
− Introduction of significant anatomical errors in the hands and feet.
− Modified the light skin patches to look like gloves or paint rather than preserving the natural vitiligo pattern from Image 1.

Verdict: FLUX.2 [klein] 9B followed the prompt instructions much more accurately, successfully transferring the specific plaid scarf and navy coat from Image 2 onto the person from Image 1 while maintaining their facial features. Wan 2.7 failed to use the reference clothing entirely, generating a different outfit and introducing several anatomical distortions.
