Paint My Face

This shoot was basically an extreme beauty shoot where the girls had to sell accessories while covered in paint.  Pretty awesome shoot overall.

1.-ANYA
Totally fabulous shot.  I love how Anya is completely covering the frame and I think that those colors look amazing on her.  She's totally selling the accessories and her face just looks fantastic.  And then to add it all up, she's rocking blue lips!

2.-AIMEE
And Aimee is back on top! I think everything about this shot looks lovely.  Aimee's skin looks amazing  and I think her eyes look fantastic.  Plus she's definitely working the accessories.  The only slight negative is that her eyes look a wee bit uneven but besides that, flawless photo!

3.-CLAIRE
Claire's best shot by far.  She looks absolutely gorgeous and fresh.  I love her face here and I think the paint looks awesome on her.  I think that the cropping is a bit sucky and the necklace is a bit too much for my liking but Claire looks amazing.

4.
This is such an awesome photo of Dominique and definitely one of my favorites of her.  I love the soft expression on her face and how she looks like she's caressing herself.  I think overall, it's a lovely photo.

5.-KATARZYNA
This is a really beautiful shot; I love how there's a sense of hope in Katarzyna's face.  I absolutely love all of the colors here and I think those bracelets look fly but I hate how you can't see the purse.

6.-FATIMA
This shot has really grown on me.  I love Fatima's face here and I really love the intensity in her eyes.  Her skin like always looks fantastic and the necklace looks good though I find it a bit strange that it isn't completely around her neck.  Another thing is that I hate how they didn't photoshop out Fatima's arm hair just because they wanted to embarrass her in front of the world.  But overall, it's a beautiful photo.

7.-STACY ANN
I'm really shocked that Stacy Ann got FCO this week seeing as that there were many better shots this week but I think this shot isn't that bad.  I actually really like it and it is for sure her best shot.  I love all of the colors on Stacy Ann and how she's pulling the necklace but I wish she didn't squint.  Still, it's a good shot.

8.-LAUREN
I think this shot is just okay.  I don't really think that Lauren's really showing off the purse or necklace well and I don't think her face looks really that fresh here.  Still, I like the colors on her.

9.-MARVITA
It really sucks that Marvita was eliminated since I thought her portfolio up to now was pretty good and this isn't that bad.  I think her skin looks amazing here and I think that the sadness in her eyes work but she's really not doing anything to make the jewelry pop.

10.-WHITNEY
Not a good shot at all.  Her eyes look wonky, she's not selling the jewelry at all, and I wish she would close her mouth since it doesn't work at all here and it rarely ever works for her favor.

And the call outs from the show!

Meat Factory

So basically the girls had to pose in a meat locker covered in meat.  The shoot was pretty weak...there was only a few shots that I really loved and the rest were meh...

1.[Lauren4.5.jpg]-LAUREN
Totally fabulous.  I really love how Lauren looks like some meat monster who has just been caught.  I absolutely love Lauren's face here and I think she looks very long even in that pose.  Lauren's best shot by far.

2.-MARVITA
I know this is probably unpopular, but I really like this shot a lot.  First of all, Marvita's body looks *z snap*; seriously she has, by far, the best body of the cycle.  I love how she looks like a modern cave women in this photo and I love how her face has a sort of pride and like she's about to defend herself by smacking someone with a bone.  I really never thought I'd say this, but probably my favorite of Marvita.

3.-KATARZYNA
Pretty great photo.  I love how Katarzyna is showing the meat skirt like that and I think she looks very tall.  I think her face looks beautiful here and overall I think this is a solid shot from Katarzyna.

4.-ANYA
This is probably Anya's weakest shot in the competition for me...but it's still good.  I think that her face looks really beautiful and she really is smiling with her eyes but her nose looks busted here.  I think the pose is kind of cool but I don't think it works since it makes her upper thigh appear bigger.  It's not a bad shot at all, but I feel as though it can be stronger.

5.-AMIS
I love how when finally Amis takes a stronger photo and is out of the bottom 3-worthy shots, they eliminated her.  I think this shot is good, I love the determination in Amis' eyes and I think her profile looks pretty good.  Her body doesn't look as amazing as Marvita's but it looks good as well.  Basically, there's really nothing wrong with this shot but I feel that it doesn't really catch my eye.

6.-DOMINIQUE
This is okay; nothing truly great just alright.  I think that Dominique's body here looks really thick here because of her sitting on the meat.  It may have been a "bold move" as Mr. Jay probably said but for a fashion image it doesn't work because it makes her body look bad.  The face is probably the definition of ANTM fierce but I hate how there's no intensity in the eyes...it just looks blank.

7.-CLAIRE
I really love the pose here; it's very broken down which I think works here and I think it shows off Claire's body well.  That face however is just horrible.  It's just like Dominique where there is no intensity in the eyes and she looks about 40 here.  If the face was better, this would probably be third.

8.-WHITNEY
Hmm 

9.-STACY ANN
I don't really like this shot.  I mean she looks like someone in a music video rather than a model.  She looks tall but I don't really think the pose works at all.  Her bone structure looks good here but I think that the face just really doesn't have any story or intensity in it.  It's not really a bad shot like Whitney, but I just think it's bland.

10.-AIMEE

Huge step-down for Aimee.  This is just not really good; the pose does absolutely nothing to make the
shot good.  I mean just standing there doesn't really work at all for the shot.  The face has that same manic stare that her makeover has that just doesn't work at all.  Not good. :(

11.-FATIMA
It really is a shame that Fatima stepped down this week.  I would never in a million years eliminate her here but it's just not a good photo.  That snarl just doesn't work and her body just doesn't look as good as it did last week.  The only positive I have is that her skin looks sensational here.

And the call outs from the show!

Elle MacPherson Lingerie

Lovely shoot once again, okay elimination I guess...nothing much else to say about this shoot.

1.[Aimee3.5.jpg]-AIMEE
And Aimee is on a roll! Love this shot.  I love how although Aimee is on her knees, she still looks tall, her body looks sensational, and her face like always looks perfection.  And her eyes seriously looks fantastic.

2.[Anya3.5.jpg]-ANYA
Well, well, well.  Ms. Fabulous continues to work it out! This is really fabulous.  First off, I love Anya's body here and she looks extremely tall.  The close up is divine though the only negative is that I don't like the slight snarl and how her right hand is missing but everything else in the photo makes up for it.

3.[Fatima3.5.jpg]-FATIMA
I know that Fatima felt extremely awkward and all but she really worked it! Her face looks absolutely amazing, her body looks wonderful, and her legs look soooo long.  Baby Iman worked it!

4.[Lauren3.5.jpg]-LAUREN
So I know that a lot of people think this shot is awkward but I just don't see it.  I think the pose is quite creative and I love how the sun goes through her arms and her face looks quite amazing.  Really lovely.

5.[Marvita3.5.jpg]-MARVITA
This shot is lovely.  Marvita's body looks fantastic even covered up and I love the pride that she has in her stance.  What I don't like though is how he looks about 28 years old so rather than being able to put it in my top 2, I have to rank it 5th.  I still love it though.

6.[Katarzyna3.5.jpg]-KATARZYNA
Very cheap-looking which is not good for Katarzyna and I think she should have done a different pose since she looks short here but the closeup is stunning (mainly because Katarzyna is stunning).  She looks fresh and gorgeous.

7.-CLAIRE
Well, I love how tough Claire looks here and I really think it makes the shot good but she doesn't look fresh and I hate what she's doing with her lips.

8.-[Allison3.5.jpg]ALLISON
I think it's a very pretty shot but that's it.  I love the lingerie, but I don't think Allison is really working it.

9.[Stacy+Ann3.5.jpg]-STACY ANN
I think that it's an okay photo.  I think Stacy Ann's bone structure looks fabulous but her face looks bored and although her body looks good from what I see, she looks short.

10.[Amis3.5.jpg]-AMIS
So I think that Amis' body looks pretty good here.  Not necessarily the fashion forward type of body but it works for this shoot.  The face however lacks focus and looks uneven.


11.[Whitney3.5.jpg]-WHITNEY
Yuck this is not good.  I mean Whitney looks pretty and all but she looks like some secretary who wants to seduce her boss.  This photo just looks cheap and the makeover/styling is not helping her at all.  The only thing that probably saves this is that Whitney looks pretty but still horribly cheap.

12.[Dominique3.5.jpg]-DOMINIQUE
Hmm well this looks like a shot from America's Next Top Soccer Mom rather than for a modeling competition.  Part of it is because of the makeover but her not doing anything and just sitting there doesn't help make this shot better and I think her face looks bad.  I don't think it's horrible but it's very meh. :/

And the call outs!
