How to Compare Four AI Image Models on the Same Brief
Run one visual brief through Nano Banana 2, GPT Image 2, FLUX 2 Pro, and Recraft V3 inside Claude, then choose the model by the job instead of the leaderboard.
What you'll make
A controlled side-by-side test of four image models using one prompt, one format, and a practical scorecard for choosing the winner.
“Which image model is best?” is usually the wrong question.
The useful question is: which model gives this brief the best starting point? CreativeClaw can send one prompt to several models in parallel, so you can answer with images instead of opinions.
The controlled brief
We chose an object with several ways to fail: transparent glass, tiny flowers, an hourglass mechanism, a suspended detail, and a restrained editorial composition.
Editorial product photograph on a warm cream studio canvas: a translucent
amber glass hourglass filled with tiny pale-blue wildflowers instead of sand,
one delicate flower suspended midway between the chambers, soft natural side
light, long gentle shadow, tactile materials, restrained orange and dusty-blue
palette, premium magazine composition, centered object with generous negative
space, crisp detail, no people, text, logo, or watermark.The prompt does not say “make it look like Model X.” It describes a job.
Read the differences
None followed every instruction literally. That is exactly why the comparison is useful.
Use a production scorecard
| Criterion | Question |
|---|---|
| Prompt adherence | Did it actually make the requested object and suspended flower? |
| Composition | Can the image carry copy, a crop, or a card layout? |
| Material realism | Does the glass, flower, light, and shadow feel physically coherent? |
| Editability | Is there one clear object with clean edges and controllable negative space? |
| Brand fit | Does the result belong beside the rest of the campaign? |
For this brief, Nano Banana 2 is the easiest layout starting point; FLUX 2 Pro offers the strongest object silhouette; Recraft V3 gives the richest editorial environment. Your winner changes with the destination.
The prompt to try
Use CreativeClaw to compare this image brief across Nano Banana 2,
GPT Image 2, FLUX 2 Pro, and Recraft V3. Keep the prompt, dimensions,
and exclusions identical. Show the four outputs together, then score each
for prompt adherence, composition, material realism, editability, and fit
for my intended channel. Do not pick a winner until the images are complete.Model choice should be an observable decision, not a habit.
