I ran the same prompt through six models. The diagonal light band changes character a lot from model to model, some keep it as a hard graphic wedge and others melt it into the teal. Skin tone shifts warm to cool, and the shadow beside her gets more or less abstract. Worth comparing the edge of the cat-eye glasses and how each one handles that airbrush smoothness. Models, in order: 1. seedream-5.0-pro 2. flux-2-pro 3. gpt-image-2 4. nano-banana-2-lite 5. grok-imagine-image-2 6. muse-image-1.0 Reference image: http://localhost:5182/dl/magnific/2025-01/c4cd3925-cfe2-437f-b3e8-07e0a71a9af3.jpeg

AI Model: seedream-5.0-pro
Prompt: Hard clean silhouette edges bound simplified planes of flat, high-chroma color. A single raking source sculpts form through warm-to-cool transitions, detail spent only where a plane turns and left smooth elsewhere. Cast shadows fall as crisp graphic shapes flat across a saturated backdrop. Warm lights sit against a cool complementary field with one deep saturated accent among them, every gradient airbrush-smooth and polished. A middle-aged woman with short wavy dark brown hair, wearing bold red cat-eye sunglasses and an orange button-up shirt with a chest pocket. Close-up portrait at eye level, the woman facing forward with head slightly tilted up, chin lifted, wearing a faint smile, filling most of the frame with a sharp focus on her face and shoulders. Scene set against a plain teal blue wall during daytime, with a bright diagonal band of light falling across the left side and a crisp shadow cast beside her.
