Our note
A three.js scene of a sailing ship with a carved dragon figurehead and lanterns crossing a misty bay; every part was modeled in code, and the model scored and reworked each element to 8/10.
The creator’s post
Opus 5.5 sculpted every part of this ship in code, including the dragon, sails, and architecture. I can't say it has bad taste anymore. But it still needs steering, so I tried a new way of prompting. Live site: http://ship.mengto.here.now I asked Opus to score every part of the scene: the ship, water, landscapes, buildings, and their individual parts. Then I asked it to keep improving each part until it scored at least 8 out of 10, depending on my token and time budget. The key is to let it work as long as possible. The longer it works, the better it gets, until it reaches a point where I need to course correct. For me, Opus 5.5 reaches a level of detail and realism that no other model does.
