Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is O4-mini high (2025-04-16) Player 1

Judge's Analysis

    Player 1's submission adheres more closely to the prompt with a clearly defined owl, a wizard hat, and a glowing crystal ball.

    The composition is visually appealing with a strong focus on contrast and detail.

    Player 2's submission, while creative, lacks clarity in the owl's form and has a less cohesive visual presentation.

These metrics analyze technical aspects of both SVG drawings. Look for differences that might explain the judge's decision. Use the "View Code" button above to see the SVG code for each drawing.
