Community prompt by @opauso-69 · voting in progress — model names and win rates are revealed when this prompt retires from the rotation

0 text-to-image models have rendered this photorealism prompt with the identical text at their default settings. Voting is in progress: the images are shown without attribution so votes stay blind, and the model behind each one, with its win rate, is revealed when the prompt retires from the rotation.

What voters look for: believable skin and fabric, physically plausible light and shadow, lens behaviour such as depth of field and motion blur, and no waxy or over-smoothed surfaces.

FAQ

Why are the model names hidden?

This prompt is still being voted on. The arena is blind: voters compare two images without knowing which model made them. Names and win rates appear here once the prompt retires from the rotation.

Can I vote on this prompt?

Yes — pairs from every live prompt are served on the arena vote page. You will not be shown a prompt you wrote yourself.

Were the prompts adjusted per model?

No. Every model received the exact same prompt, unmodified, at its default settings, with no negative prompt or style suffix.
