Local OSS round: clockwork owl identity

Which common local OSS checkpoint best preserves Herman's clockwork-owl identity, material constraints, mechanics, and art-deco composition?

Runs
7
Variable
local OSS checkpoint
Prompt
oss-round-identity-prompt v1.0

Protocol

One unseeded local generation per checkpoint using the identical frozen hosted-round prompt, common 1344x768 output, and each checkpoint's existing calibrated defaults.

Frozen prompt template

CONTROL PROMPT AB-R1-IDENTITY-001. A dignified clockwork owl named Herman perched on a large aged-brass skeleton key, three-quarter portrait, midnight navy enamel body panels, exposed brass gears that connect plausibly at the shoulder and chest, half-moon spectacles, one subtle amber-glowing eye, symmetrical art-deco fan geometry behind him, dark navy laboratory backdrop, museum-object product photography, physically realistic brass, glass, enamel, and paper textures, controlled amber rim light, centered wide 16:9 composition. No typography, no lettering, no watermark, no extra birds, no humanoid hands, no neon cyberpunk colors, no cute plush styling.

Review rubric

  • Prompt Adherence
  • Identity
  • Material Realism
  • Mechanical Coherence

Notes

Seven common checkpoints through SwarmUI on the authorized local 3090 Ti. Requests were sequential to avoid model-load contention. Random seeds were requested but the realized seed was not exposed, so run records use null.

Oss R2 Identity Chroma1 Base

Vision adherence score 3.5/10. Artifact-heavy natural owl on a small key-like prop rather than a large skeleton key; navy enamel and plausible exposed mechanics are absent; one eye is visibly amber, but the spectacles/fan/laboratory requirements fail and a tiny generated mark appears at lower right.

Oss R2 Identity Dreamshaper Xl V21

Vision adherence score 5.0/10. Clean navy-and-brass owl, but it stands on a small pedestal rather than a large skeleton key; both eyes glow amber, half-moon spectacles and fan geometry are absent, and the laboratory reads as decorative pipework.

Vision adherence score 8.0/10. Strong museum-object rendering with navy enamel, brass mechanics, spectacles, laboratory props, and a large key; both eyes glow amber instead of exactly one, and the art-deco fan is only partially/asymmetrically visible.

Vision adherence score 7.8/10. Owl is perched clearly on a large aged-brass key with a symmetric fan and dark laboratory treatment, but it is predominantly feathered rather than clockwork enamel, both eyes glow amber, and the gold eye rims are not half-moon spectacles.

Vision adherence score 5.0/10. Detailed navy-and-brass mechanical owl, but it stands on a gear base rather than a skeleton key; both eyes are dark, and the requested half-moon spectacles, amber eye, fan geometry, and laboratory backdrop are absent.

Vision adherence score 4.0/10. Plausible exposed brass clockwork and navy enamel are present, but the composition is a cropped bust with no key, fan, or laboratory; both eyes are bright blue and oversized, and no half-moon spectacles appear.
