otter	deepsea	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image		2026-08-26
mole	emberfall	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Would be named bear at 80px, which fails the naming test outright. A mole is named by its pointed snout and oversized spade paws and it had neither. Replaced.	2026-08-19
wren	emberfall	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Painted its contact shadow as a bright saturated cyan disc, which is not #262c4a so the cutout kept it — the finished asset stood in a cyan puddle. Occlusion must be a darker value of the piece own hue, fading out. Its wing and tail were also stiff rectangular slabs. Replaced.	2026-08-19
mountain-goat	stonepeak	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	A long flat-sided rectangular body that read as a crate with a head attached — the least plush-looking object in the collection, against a style whose first requirement is a soft stuffed thing with weight. Replaced with one dominant rounded mass.	2026-08-19
halcyon	cloudbank	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Rarity inversion, and a contract failure rather than a taste call: a plain violet bird with a gold beak, less dramatic than the RARE thunder-ram in its own set. At 80px the rare read as more special than the legendary. Replaced with a large fanned gold tail — the accent spent on the signature feature as a full fill (L-010), not as trim.	2026-08-19
puffin	cloudbank	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Read as a generic bird at 80px, not a puffin — the beak was gold on a gold body with no value separation, so the one feature that names the animal disappeared. Replaced with a large blunt beak in a darker value of the same gold plus the white face patch.	2026-08-19
rabbit	meadow	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	A collection-level collision, invisible batch by batch and obvious with all sixty on one sheet: a gold sitting rabbit with upright ears, very nearly the same object as the already-approved sunbaked/jackrabbit. Two cards that look the same is a defect in a collectible grid however good each one is alone. Replaced in cyan, low and resting with the ears laid back.	2026-08-19
jackalope	sunbaked	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Second attempt: antlers thickened but kept in the BODY hue with only cyan tips, so they merged into the violet silhouette and read as a second pair of ears at 80px. Replaced by a version whose antlers are a solid mass in the ACCENT colour — the fix the approved stag had already proven (L-010).	2026-08-19
seal	frostline	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Briefed violet by hand, which put three of six frostline pieces on one hue with the rare and legendary among them. Replaced in gold. The set hue plan is now computed and validated in lib/hueplan.mjs, before the estimate.	2026-08-19
jackalope	sunbaked	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Antlers rendered as thin branching forms that vanish at 80px, breaking a rule the confirmed reference sheet settled explicitly. Replaced.	2026-08-19
bear	forest	superseded	approve	nano-banana-pro	Routed to nano-banana-pro after gemini-flash-image refused this subject three times running.	2026-08-18
owl	forest	rejected	reject	gemini-flash-image	Identity and hue fixes approved. Owl superseded again by the set-hue-balance pass.	2026-08-18
firefly	nightsky	rejected	reject	gemini-flash-image	Night Sky: rare owl-moon and legendary dragon approved. The three commons superseded by the re-run that fixed washed-out neutral bodies.	2026-08-18

deer	forest	rejected	reject	gemini-flash-image	Superseded on set-hue balance and subject identity: owl/bear/deer re-run for hue distribution, hedgehog re-run because it read as a turtle. Only the deer's first pass is kept as rejected-for-hue rather than wrong.	2026-08-18

whale	deepsea	rejected	reject	gemini-flash-image	Commons approved. Octopus and whale rejected only as superseded: they predate the rarity contract and carry no accent, so they would have shipped a RARE and a LEGENDARY that read as common.	2026-08-18

otter	deepsea	superseded	—	gemini-flash-image	Canary v1, rendered under direction A during ATL-19 (does one plate hold a six-creature set). It answered that question — it did — and was superseded wholesale when Justin chose direction B, the chunky-felt-patchwork look, on 2026-08-18. Superseded by a change of direction rather than by a fault in the piece.	2026-08-18

octopus	deepsea	rejected	reject	flux2-dev	Photoreal studio plush with baked directional lighting and fabric nap. Violates principle 3 — the shading is welded to the base colour, so a recolour would leave the shadows wrong and the growth model collapses. Silhouette and weight were both fine; the register was the failure.	2026-08-18
