Challenge 1 - Evaluation

[Chi]

Good luck to all the contestants!

I had to vote for Aria, I think she killed this (Sorry, Nanami )

I did notice the fact that Nanami wasn't looking straight at the camera (it's close, but not quite) but for various reasons couldn't fix it (mainly time and her diva-ness mentioned earlier)

Question:  How does this work?  One gets immunity by votes, but how do you decide on the rest (who goes)?

[Gingerbread]

Cupid and Aria....no words, they are just fab!!!

Yeah looking at the pic I could have posed Lilithas hands slightly better, wish I'd have thought of the martini glasses though as I love those pics!!!

Good luck everyone!!!

I have found that the CAM head are much harder to position - they don't have quite the range that a regular MH doll has unfortunately.

Whoever gets the highest amount of votes each round, that ghoul is safe from elimination no matter if she is in the bottom spot or not! The judges will decide on the final callout and who will be eliminated, but if the winner of the immunity lands in the bottom, she will be spared.

This, so much this! Lilitha and I had several fallouts about where she wanted to look and where I wanted her to look...we eventually came to a compromise.

Great shots everybody!  I will explain this though...I was trying to accomplish the whole, oops, stuffon the floor skirt lift....I shall do better next time!  Already have a HUGE plan for next shot.  =D 

Great pictures guys!  Love them all!

[NoDivision]

Yeah, the CAM heads are a pain. They don't have much up and down motion.

[Icicle]

Can totally agree with that. My dragon is a major pain in the butt to play around with :<

Oh and I forgot to point out, I'm well aware that my little background sheet was wrinkled.. for the life of me I couldn't get it to smooth out (until other photoshoots OF COURSE) and.. for the life of me don't know why I didn't crop it a bit better. Things to learn, of course~

Ahahaha I totally feel you there.  I had the problem of my iron (brand new) wouldn't work, and when it did, it leaked water everywhere, including all over my good pillowcases for the shots....and then that happened, I couldn't git it cleaned up or dried off (water marks on my pillowcases now...weird, huh?) and then had to use some other pillow cases for the backdrop.  xD  It was a nightmare...but I already have something new and better to use, and I have a big plan for next challenge, if it is what I am guessing it was.  =D

My witchy's arms kept popping off when I posed her. DX

I'll also make sure I don't wash it out too much. I think part of the editing did that. DX

[Colorscapesart]

Wowsa!  Is it hot in here or what?!  Gorgeous work!

The ghouls that stand out to me:
Cupid ~ Such intensity!  I love the lace on her legs, it just really works so well for this!
Kalma ~ Gorgeous hair!  I would have never guessed a skeleton could be so cute and sexy!
Meowlody ~ Wow!  I absolutely love this pic!  I wish it was a full body shot, but it's still working for me.
Operetta ~ The outfit and sepia tones are perfect!  I do wish she hadn't been quite so cropped, but still stunning!

Now to vote, this will be tricky!

[Icecrystalline]

I really hope Rochelle will be given another chance, this one wasn't as great as I would have hoped, but I have something lined up for the next! I am praying we are saved and given another chance, I have so many ideas and all at the wrong time now! 
My look was supposed to be the army wife waiting at home for her man, this was her greeting to him.
I love Aria's shot though, I voted for her as I found her shot fabulous! Although both she and Kalma were on level playing fields for me!

Yeah, same for me.  I was a little unsure of what I was doing, but after this one, and seeing everyone else's, I have a much better idea, so I hope I get to try again.

I'm amused that 2 of us did the martina glass thing, haha.

Great minds think alike I guess! 


The photo I used as inspiration was actually one of Dita von Teese! Don't worry, shes got clothes on in this one!

She reminds me of a seal there!!!

Of note, don't take the judges' critique too seriously! During Cycle 1 of ANTM, I had several judges providing critique for my photos. Sometimes it strings a little, but you can only learn and grow from it. And with any critique, take what you deem important and ignore the rest! hehe
