Prompt given to both modelsCreate a square editorial poster for an imaginary night train called MONDFALTER. Show the exact German headline MONDFALTER and the exact subline BERLIN NACH LISSABON. Use a restrained midnight-blue and warm-cream palette, one stylized moth, strong Swiss-grid typography, generous negative space, and no additional words or logos.

What the rating looks at: Legible text, hierarchy, and composition.

“Ahead”: the 95 % ranges of both values do not overlap. “Slightly ahead”: a higher value, but the ranges overlap.

No enabled Tencent API key was available; no card authorization or balance hold was initiated. The provider announces a November 12, 2026 shutdown for the current hy-image-v3 model ID.

Missing image run for Krea 2 Raw

The official demo offers the Raw checkpoint. On November 2, 2026, its default configuration required more allowance than anonymous daily access provided, and a security challenge blocked free sign-up. Local license eligibility remains unresolved. No exact Raw API route through fal.ai, Together or BFL was established on November 3. Krea 2 Large and its “raw” prompt option are not substitutes for the Raw model. Resolve regular account access and license eligibility, then test the exact Raw checkpoint with sufficient allowance.
