Supermodel//Cycle 1

[sailorsally]

Naikimoto's is gorgeous aside from the fact that it doesn't look like she has a butt, lol.

Porticia's has a really sad tone to it, which I think makes it so lovely, but it looks just like a shot in this season's EDNTM, if I remember right...

Alessandra looks really pretty but there's way too much in the picture.

Althea has a really cool outfit and pose (except that it looks cut up) but I dunno about that skeleton thing. Seems like overboard and in the wrong direction.

I really like Erin's shot. It's a unique way of portraying a prep while still being a prep. The pose is a bit weird though.

Both of Matthew's... dude, you have to learn how to get outside the dollmaker, seriously. You're not going to get very far if you're just sticking to the dollmaker. Why do you think you lost in PRE?

As for mine? Eh, I could actually complain endlessly about it, but I want to see what other people think.

Those are just my thoughts.

it was totally not my fault!! i think one of my dolls will go home, but if kebin gives them both a second chance, they will rock it!! cuz' i finally know what to do to make my photos look like the others. but i didnt know before. that's why my pictures look bad like always. but if kebin keeps both in again, i promise they will do so much better next time

[iseedeadpeople554]

i think cassie and althea and portricia did amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! both of mine sucked(no surprise)

[alesch1919]

I love love Cassie,Porticia (me), Alessandra, Erin and Bianca

and for porti yeah inspired! but not exactly the same pose

[sailorsally]

Understandable, Alesch. It is a bit different and the situation is different as well. And she still looks gorgeous.

[alesch1919]

Thanks now I am too jelly on your picture like it toally rocked! wait to see elimination were you can get first call-out

[sailorsally]

lol we'll see what happens.

But... the more I look at Alessandra's picture, the more I don't like it... I have a feeling that she'll be eliminated. For one she looks so... SAD. I've been to 3 proms and all the prom queens looked ecstatic that they were prom queen.

[alesch1919]

again lets just find out

[sailorsally]

Yeah, like I said, it's a feeling; I don't know for certain. ^^

[alesch1919]

I wonder what the next shot is! i hope it would be like a Ordinary standing shot to show your fashion sense ... or a head shot or both ahahaha

[sailorsally]

Head shot would be cool.

And of course fashion would be lovely.

[iseedeadpeople554]

[alesch1919]

Burning car is too common i want simpler but fun. then I want couture photshoots!

[iseedeadpeople554]

Ok, so let's start judging!

Althea

Definitely gothic, but there are a few issues with this. I think the pose is decent, but it but it could’ve been executed better and it is also pretty stiff. My main concern, though, is that you are totally not proportioned to your background. You honestly look like a giant with that background. You also need to clean up your editing. I do like the face, but overall this photo is a step back from last week I’m afraid.

Alessandra

When I first look at this shot, you look absolutely beautiful. This definitely a step up from last week. You look so gorgeous! I think the pose is ok, but it’s not convincing enough for me. Last week you tried too hard with your pose, this week I feel you relied on pretty. I do get the concept though. However, my major issue is that you need to clean up your editing. There are a lot of white dots around your legs, and I really don’t like how you left the “elouai” words on the dolls in the background. Also, there are lots of little details that really take out the reality. The hand on your head is backwards and it doesn’t look like you are holding the flowers. But overall, this is an improvement.

Felicia

I sorta see a nerd, but I really don’t think the dog and that shirt really give off the “nerd” appeal. Also, I really don’t like this shot because you just look like a midget and you look a little plump. What happened to the gorgeous girl from last week? You tackled the concept, but you totally forgot that you are a model. I like how you managed to pose more, but I just do not see a model in this whatsoever.

Erin

Definitely preppy. I think you nailed the concept. Although your face looks interesting and I like the effort of giving expression, it is a little bit overacted in my opinion. Plus, it’s just too forced. Your lips look so tight and uncomfortable. My main concern is this pose. I just think it looks really stiff and awkward. Also there’s a little bit too much background. Next time I would crop your photo more so we can just focus more on you.

Porticia

Gorgeous. That is my first reaction to this photo. I think this photo shows that if you have to right way of doing it, you do not have to go all out in order to take a great photo. The pose is quite simple, yet I really feel you connected in this shot emotion-wise really well. I think the concept was portrayed decently, since you appear lonely. Now the dirt (I think that’s dirt) and the trash bag, I don’t know whether or not you needed that to portray an outcast, but I don’t think it hinders the concept. Your editing needs slight cleaning up, but that's my only issue. Beautiful photo.

Naikimoto

I think you tackled the concept of the shot pretty well. You look very professional, like a president, and the vote sign in the background enhances it. I suggest maybe adding more background models, because presidents usually have a lot of influence, but you got the concept of this shoot down. However, the modeling is not quite there yet. I think it’s a step down from last week. You could’ve done more with your body and your props, because you honestly look like a stick. You’re just standing there in this shot. I wish you interacted with your surroundings and your prop more or just moved more around your set.

Cassie

What a vast improvement from last week! At first glance I immediately love this photo. This is actually one of my favorite photos this week. You really look beautiful, and this pose is very nice I’ve got to say. However, it might be a little too posed. It just feels so stiff. You're portraying an athlete, so I would expect maybe some more movement or at least something less stiff. Also, this is not a big deal, but the drop shadow is also not placed properly, but I like how you attempted it. Overall, this is a very strong photo.

Bianca

This is such a step up from last week! I love the energy in this shot, something you really lacked last round. You definitely nailed the cheerleader concept as well. I think what you need to work on is versatility in your poses, because you will not make it far if you just use elouai bases. However, this is a great shot!

I will review your photos and when you come back, we will learn which one of you will no longer be in the competition.
