相形見絀

相 = 木 + 目 : Mnemonic symbol: I take "eye" and "tree" as resembling an ent, an alive tree. Xi Shi (xi) portrays (相) an ent (相) in the anglepod's bathroom (ang4). Unfortunately she's really bad at painting, and her portrait resembles more a Christmas tree (木). The Eye of Providence (目) enters and, just from the shape of the Christmas Tree, instantly recognizes its own portrait (相).

形 = 开 + 彡 : Marie Curie (xi) is modding her fake Santa Clause beard (彡) into a new shape (形). With a bottle opener (开) she carves the beard in the engine's kitchen ((e)ng2) so that it gets a fractal (形) shape (形).

见 = ⺆ + 儿 : Joan of Arc (ji) set up a surveillance camera (mnemonic symbol for 见) in the anthill's bathroom (an4). With its help, she can see Sun Wu Kong (儿) stapling (儿) his hat to his head.
