I found Gemini's one much more impressive initially, but on closer inspection it's got a whole bunch of issues. Missing leg, objects overlapping etc.

It’s a bit like a naive “writing”/drawing of ideographic characters by someone who never wrote them. Things (lines and shapes) are there but just not quite right.
