Which Ollama Cloud Model is Best? Elephant on a Skateboard SVG Comparison (13 Models)

After testing LLMs on ducks, vehicles, dev scenes, marine life, chess, and the FIFA World Cup, we wanted to know: can today’s top models draw a whimsical, physically impossible scene? This time we asked 13 Ollama cloud models to draw an elephant on a skateboard – a prompt that tests organic anatomy (a massive elephant), mechanical precision (a skateboard with wheels), scale mismatch (a huge animal on a tiny board), and creative humor.

The prompt was: Make an svg of elephant on a skateboard

This is the ninth in our SVG benchmark series. See also: duck on a bicycle, duck with a parachute, duck driving a jeep, cherry blossom trees, duck programmer debugging at 3am, baby shark fish, octopus playing chess, and FIFA World Cup 2026.

Why an elephant on a skateboard? This prompt is a delightfully absurd stress test for SVG generation because it combines multiple hard problems: (1) Organic anatomy – an elephant has a massive body, four thick legs, a trunk, large ears (African) or small ears (Asian), tusks, a tail, and wrinkles, all requiring complex <path> curves, (2) Mechanical precision – a skateboard has a specific deck shape, 4 wheels, and 2 trucks (axle assemblies) that must be positioned symmetrically, (3) Scale mismatch – an elephant weighs 6 tons and a skateboard is meant for a 80kg human; the model must decide how to reconcile this (tiny skateboard under a huge elephant? oversized skateboard?), (4) Balance and pose – a skateboarding elephant must somehow balance on the board, which requires the model to think about physics and pose, (5) Concept combination – the model must understand both “elephant” and “skateboard” and combine them in a single coherent scene, (6) Humor and whimsy – the prompt is inherently funny, and a good model should capture that playfulness (e.g., the elephant looking excited, wearing a helmet, or doing a trick). A model that draws a great trophy may fail here because elephants require organic curves, not geometric shapes.

The goal is not to declare a winner – it is to give you the data so you can pick the best model for your own use case. We show you the SVG, the stats, and a short analysis for each. You decide.

How to Choose the Best Ollama Model for Whimsical Animal SVGs

The elephant-skateboard prompt rewards different things than previous prompts. Here are the criteria to use:

  • Elephant anatomy: Does the SVG have a trunk, four legs, large ears, a tail, and tusks? Or is it a generic blob? The trunk is the hardest part – it requires complex bezier curves and must be positioned correctly on the face.
  • Skateboard accuracy: Does the SVG have a deck (the board), 4 wheels, and 2 trucks? Or is it just a rectangle? A good skateboard has the iconic shape with upturned ends.
  • Scale and proportion: How does the model handle the size mismatch? A tiny skateboard under a huge elephant is funny but unrealistic; an oversized skateboard looks more plausible. The model’s choice reveals its creative judgment.
  • Pose and balance: Is the elephant standing on the skateboard? Doing a trick? Looking excited? A good scene captures the dynamism of skateboarding, not just a static elephant on a static board.
  • Scene context: Did the model add motion lines, a ground/surface, a sky, or other context? Or is the elephant-skateboard floating in a void?
  • Humor and whimsy: Does the SVG capture the playfulness of the prompt? Look for details like a helmet, sunglasses, a grin, or a trick pose that show the model “got the joke”.
  • SVG code quality: Does it use <defs>, <use>, gradients, and clean structure? Better code is easier to tweak (e.g., to recolor the elephant or change the skateboard design).

How It Works

The script discovers all cloud-hosted models via the Ollama API (/api/tags), pulls each model, then sends the identical prompt through the OpenAI-compatible endpoint (http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions). Each model’s response is parsed for an <svg>...</svg> block, and the extracted SVG is saved for rendering with minimal post-processing (adding width="100%" height="auto" for responsive embedding and fixing XML errors so the SVG renders in browsers).

Cloud models are identified by the remote_host field in the API response – these models are hosted on Ollama Cloud rather than running locally. This means even very large models (671B parameters) can be queried instantly without local GPU resources.

Quick Recommendation by Use Case

If you just want a shortcut, here is which model to pick based on what you care about:

  • You want the most detailed elephant skateboard SVG: pick models labeled “Very high” complexity in the table above
  • You want the fastest response: look at the per-model sections below for the elapsed time
  • You want the cleanest, most reusable SVG code: pick models that use <defs>, <use>, and transforms (see raw source below each SVG)
  • You want a small, efficient SVG for web embedding: pick models with “Compact” verdict
  • You want accurate elephant anatomy (trunk, ears, tusks): check the per-model analysis – the trunk is the hardest part
  • You want a funny/whimsical scene: look for models that added details like motion lines, a helmet, or a trick pose
  • You want a balance of detail and speed: pick models labeled “Balanced” or “Detailed”
  • You want to compare within a model family: pick deepseek-v4-pro vs deepseek-v4-flash, or glm-5.1 vs glm-5.2, or minimax-m2.7 vs minimax-m3

Conclusion

That’s all 13 elephant-on-a-skateboard SVGs from the active Ollama cloud models. This whimsical-animal prompt tested a different skill set than our previous prompts: organic anatomy (elephant trunk, ears, legs), mechanical precision (skateboard deck, wheels, trucks), scale mismatch handling, and creative humor.

No single model is best at everything. A model that produces a stunning World Cup poster may produce a basic elephant, and vice versa. The best model for you depends on your specific use case:

  • For maximum detail: look at the “Very high” complexity models
  • For speed: look at the generation times in each section
  • For anatomical accuracy: check which models captured the elephant’s trunk, ears, and tusks
  • For skateboard accuracy: check which models rendered 4 wheels, a deck, and trucks
  • For humor and whimsy: look for models that added motion lines, poses, or playful details
  • For code quality: look at the raw SVG source – clean, well-structured code is easier to customize

Try the same prompt yourself with Ollama Cloud and see if you agree with our analysis. And check out the other posts in our SVG benchmark series:
