Here are your shots!

Alonin - Gluttony



Aldon: It’s a bit dark - AGAIN, and at first glance it’s not entirely obvious that you’re standing next to a keg, which is pretty key to realising what your sin is - gluttony. I guess based on the pose you are intoxicated so I think that was a good idea and I like that, your outfit is a bit unusual for this sin and the colour for some reason just seems so out of place for the rest of the picture, but it’s good, it’s definitely better than last weeks in my book!

Jerbnice: Not exactly what I was thinking of for gluttony since you went with wine rather than a place with food like a banquet hall but it sitll works. I like the placement of your arms because even though you don't have a huge stomach, it implies that you are full. Lighting is a bit off but other than that, a very strong picture, in my opinion.

Asendal - Sloth



Aldon: Yeessss, yessss. Showing us the face again is good. I like that you didn’t go with the obvious /sit /sleep and instead sorta just went with an overall mood that was dreary and down-buzz like. You look so uninspired to do anything, like a true sloth. It kinda looks like you’re sad too so be careful with that. Also I like the choice of outfit for this one - an uninspiring, casual outfit.

Jerbnice: Nothing about this picture represents sloth for me except maybe your clothes. When I look at this photo, it makes me think that you're depressed. It would have made more sense if you were lying down in this dank area. If you survive this week, I hope you bounce back because you had promising shots in the earlier weeks.

Donachi - Greed



Aldon: I personally thought greed would be a hard one to do. You proved me right I guess - but you were smart about it - you’ve got all the material possessions but the pose is a bit weak and it’s hard to tell that your representing some kind of sin. You look like a pleasant, lovely Sylvari in his happy, hard earned house (or at least that could be the story here). On the other hand the hand gesture could be taken to say “Look at all my cool shit!” So I think you did the best you could do for this one, well done!

Jerbnice: You look so dapper in those clothes, Moosey! Anyway, this looks more pride than greed but I'm gonna let that slide since greed is difficult to pull off. You do look like a model in this photo and you are able to get my attention despite the objects in the background, especially that large head behind you. I'd say you did well this round.

Ellochelle - Wrath



Aldon: Woah. Definitely would not want to cross paths with you in this corridor! It’s a slightly understated version of wrath, like you are still very in control and poised to strike. But I definitely get the wrath vibe and the outfit/colours are great. The shadows under your eyes really really work here! The setting could have been better - a place with more orange/fire etc, or a battlefield.

Jerbnice: *Face Palm* Oh, Ellochelle... This picture would have gotten a higher score if this is the one you submitted last week. It fits the weapons theme more than you portraying wrath! You don't even look angry in this picture! Since this picture is safe, I'm giving you a safe score as well.

Emveri - Envy



Aldon: You went with a green theme which is smart, it worked really well. Your pose is strong and your face is FIERCE! You could be mistaken for wrath, but for the green, which I think will steer people in the right direction. Good job!

Jerbnice: When I heard that you got envy, my first thought was that you had it easy because you are already green... Green with envy. But after seeing this picture, it doesn't matter what color you are because this screams envy so much! Even if you disregard that green portal in the background (which was a nice touch), it looks like you were thinking, "That bitch is better than me so I have to beat him with this candlestick!" Very nice. Keep these coming and I won't be surprised if you win this season.

Siddry - Lust



Aldon: Oh my… Well yes, yes this is definitely lustful and in a sinful way. Wow that missing hand really is suggestive and it’s a funny shot. Perhaps not exactly something a model should do but it definitely hit the theme. Another issue is that your eyes are closed - something a model should avoid, although in this shot if they were not closed I doubt the picture would have the same effect, so I won’t count it against you this time. Also, I like the new hair colour :3

Jerbnice: Oooooohhh Siddry! *fans self* This is a very suggestive shot. It looks "porny" to me but I guess that's fine since you got lust after all. The camera angle could have been a bit better because your eyes look weird in this shot. Lighting is very good though. It's a higher than average shot for me and I would like to see more of you. Uhm, more of good model pictures, I mean not... Okay, I'm just gonna stop now...

Thallamy - Pride



Aldon: This is a solid effort. I like the purple, the pose, and the crop is good too. It’s just… safe? I guess that’s my only issue with it. It just doesn’t take my breath away. I see pride though, that’s good.

Jerbnice: I like how you are posing in this picture. It does show how proud you are, standing tall and such. So I think you got your theme right. However, standing near that tall structure made you a lot shorter than you should appear. I guess you forgot what I said during Day One, that your height is your disadvantage and camera angles would hide that weakness. Never forget that ever again.

That concludes the judges comments. Please wait while we score each of you and decide who committed the ultimate sin - and will be going home...
