Congratulations, final three. It's time to shoot your Cover Ghoul advertisement! Whichever one of you wins ANTM, YOUR ad will be featured in a worldwide CG campaign! The ad pays homage to the queen of Scarisian fashion - Marie Guilloniette. Not only must your photos pay homage to Marie and all things French Revolution, but it must follow the campaign's light, airy, Scarisian feel - that means a pink-tinted background and white lettering. You must submit two of your best shots, both complete with the text displayed in Naomi Cannibal's advertisement below.

You will have TEN days to complete this challenge. Please submit your two best shots by midnight on the 24th of October.

LET THEM HAVE CAKE!

On a historical note, did you know that quote was misattributed to Marie? No one knows who really said it although it was possibly said by a queen who lived about 100 years before her.

[Tiffoes]

That is awesome!

Oh Kalma, Baby, this is not a good time to have hair made of yarn.

Actually brushed yarn or mohair goes into those crazy-high bouffants better than silky hair. They used to pack their wigs with chalk or other powder to try to get it to stay up.

Can I just say that this is already my favorite challenge and I haven't even seen the pix!

This would be true and awesome if her wid were made in a different way. But with the way it's glued to the wig cap it's really quite one directional.

I soooo do not envy you guys on this challenge

[tuneful87]

Don't freak out, guys!

Cupid, your hair is a very deep pink so I think a tint of pale pink won't interfere. In fact, I think it will have quite the opposite effect!

Overall, do not worry too much about the hair guys. It's really all about paying homage to the life of beautiful extravagance and decadence that was synonymous with the name Marie Guilloinette. For this challenge, the final three may use anything they like when it comes to achieving a Marie Antoinette hairstyle - that means different wigs, hairpiece ad-ons, bows, ribbons, hair 'illusions' (for example, consider taking off a Lagoona's head, wrapping her hair around the model to bulk it up, and making sure Lagoona's face is out of sight when you snap the photo!) Hell, you could even get reallllly creative and tie the model's hair back and use some sort of frozen whipped cream headpiece). Don't feel that you're limited to working with your model's hair because you're not! If you have any specific questions that you don't want to ask publicly, just PM me.

Additionally, for anyone who is wondering how I got Abbey's stick straight hair like that, all I did was tease it. I picked up a chunk of hair and ran my comb up and down it until it got real puffy. Then I used a ton of pomade and hairspray to keep it in place. However, this may permanently change the hair. So I don't suggest doing it unless you're OK with that.

Garboyle - love it! You really must get a Nigel with a hat! Do you have at least one garboyle? Bewilderness was the one who made Nigel's hat (originally for a pony). You SO need a Nigel with hat! It makes him!
