Here are your best shots!

Let's start with the Day-time crew...

-

Alonin



Aldon: While there is no denying that your photo was taken during the daytime, it just doesn’t really scream ‘day’. It’s a beautiful shot and you look awesome and the scenery is nice, but I wouldn’t look at this picture and assume your theme was daytime. You're sitting down, so it could kind of be like you're out enjoying a picnic or something, but the sky doesn't give that cheerful, sunny picnic feel.

Jerbnice: For me, this is a safe picture. It's not bad but it also isn't that eye catching. I like your pose and your face tattoo actually worked out fine in this shot.

Emveri



Aldon: I hate the attire you have on but I love the over happy smile on your face and the pose is very high energy and fun which I feel fits with the theme of day well. Just be careful because it’s not all too clear that it’s daytime in your picture - the sky is somewhat dark and the snowflakes almost look like stars! Overall it's a good job but remember - it's all in the details!

Jerbnice: I'm glad you took my advise and got some contacts. I like the fact that you went with an action shot and this could have been perfect... except it looks like your arm got cut off! You should be mindful of your pose and assess your pictures very carefully. I'm somewhat disappointed.

Hythly



Aldon: This photo kinda lost your face a bit, as you’re looking away and upwards, but I can see what you were trying to do with the angle to include the sky. The sun is hitting your armour and lighting you up very well but just make sure you remember to make sure your character is modelling himself too.

Jerbnice: Lighting is good, concept is good but you look disproportionate. You arms aren't that bulky and yet you decided to take a shot where your upper half is farther than your lower. And speaking of your lower half, your clothes made it a lot bulkier. If you ever try to attempt a similar pose in the future, i suggest wearing a bulkier top and a slimmer bottom.

Raina



Aldon: The biggest critique I have is that again, your character is hard to make out due to lighting. You captured the sun IN the photo but it meant you had your back to the sun so you’re unable to be lit up by it. As a human character I don’t get why you posed in front of the Norn animals but maybe it was due to your ranger side? I’m not too sure. It’s not a bad shot, but you need to find the light!

Jerbnice: Bad lighting. That's the first thing that i thought of when I saw your picture. Your pose is fine and your face looks great but because of you not being illuminated properly, you look like an add-on to this picture.

Thallamy



Aldon: Your shot really didn’t fit the theme. Nothing about your shot made me think day time - yet you managed to at least look like a model in the picture.

Jerbnice: I like how you positioned yourself in this picture. Even tho you are short, u look bigger because you are in the center of the photograph and up close. Your pose commands attention, which is a plus point. Lighting is a bit off tho.

Now the Contestants of the Night!

Asendal



Aldon: Wooooah. You nailed it. I really love the setting, the crop was great, the angle was spot on and the sky looks MAGICAL. Despite that your character steals the shot and his eyes are amazing, they’re staring straight at the camera again, and the look he is giving, along with the small quirk of his mouth is very ‘come hither’ it’s great and really fit the theme of ‘night’ well.

Jerbnice: Now this is what I call modeling! Your pose is perfect and your facial expression is very alluring. I see this picture used in an ad. The only thing that you should improve on is getting proper lighting on your face. Other than that, everything is perfect.

Donachi



Aldon: This shot screams night time. You capture a beautiful moon, and your character is looking so serene and divine with his soft white glow and I really can’t fault this picture at all. You went with a very simply approach and it worked wonders for you.

Jerbnice: Excellent photo! I can't think of anything wrong or anything that needs to be changed in this shot. OMG! You even positioned your head properly to give the illusion that you have a nose. You nailed it, my Moosey. Keep this up and I see you winning this competition.

Ellochelle



Aldon: It’s very safe, and a bit boring for me. Again I feel like you just took a photo wherever you happened to be - the location almost adds nothing to the shot. Your arm looks a bit awkward also.

Jerbnice: I get the concept that you are going for however, you executed it poorly. Honey, no one wants to see up your nose. You could have moved your head a bit so you could still look up but without showing what's inside your nostrils. Also, your arm looks distrorted. Again, great concept, poor execution.

Razic



Aldon: I think you took the challenge really literally and you have your character mid-yawn about to go to sleep on a bed. It’s an okay shot but nothing about it screams model to me. It does however fit the theme.

Jerbnice: I get it.. you got night so u had to take a picture of u going to bed. It is a quirky concept but it didn't come out as that in this photograph. You look bored rather sleepy. You are wearing an armor instead of PJ's or undies. It's very disappointing. Honestly, I would just crop you out of the picture and just look at the beautiful night background instead!

Siddry



Aldon: I LOVE this picture. It’s like your character is trapped in some nightmare and he’s shielding himself from his fears. You character looks like a real model in that pose and it’s a picture I can find myself looking at over and over.

Jerbnice: I appreciate action shots and this is a good action shot. Everything in this picture is telling a story... EXCEPT... your face. It's blank! I would have given you a higher score if you showed a facial expression that fit the theme of your picture.

Alright, these were some pretty epic pictures for week one. The judges will now deliberate and later I will post who is the Superstar of the Week and who will be the first person eliminated from this competition....
