Eorzea's Next Top Model (C2) - Round 4

[Teveriel]

Also, not sure if this is the place for it, but for next time I might suggest a point tier system. Being consistently listed as a #1 choice really should count for something, and it will make people think harder about their choices.

This are all amazing. I've been secretly following and haven't voted 'til now, but these are just too great.

My picks are:
1) Kurri - So cute, I can't even handle.
2) Yunie - This is just a really awesome screen shot in general.
3) Ronberku - I like that the colors are opposite but the imitation still works great.
4) Ciara - Great choice of NPC, and great cosplay. XD
5) Vahn - Hard to believe that's even an NPC with you, the posing is so good.
6) S.Q. - Wish it was a tad bit more zoomed in, but I love it otherwise.
7) Kin - A nice cap in general; I think a /pet on the drake would have really made this pic though.
8) Jayzan - Wish your shirt was black, but otherwise you blend right in!

6) S.Q. - Wish it was a tad bit more zoomed in, but I love it otherwise.

Many thanks and yes, looking at the other submission I wish it were zoomed in more too. Although I recall there being some technical reason why I couldn't. I think there was a railing that was causing the camera to jump too far in or something when I zoomed in. Try viewing it in full resolution!

Jayzan - Love how you blended in well with the NPCs in this pic. You look like you're having a fun time just hanging out with your pirate crew.

Kin - Top pic this round in my opinion. You both look like you're ready to ride out into battle to kick some Garlean butt. The pose and especially how your light skin tone contrasted well with the dark skin tone of the NPC made this pic the best out of all of them this round.

Kurri - I just want to roll around with you!!! *rolls* How do you manage to always be so cute? Definitely my second fave pic of the bunch this week.

Maxwell - You're the one who brings life to the party aren't you? What a fun pic this is. XD

Ronberku - I'M DROOLING!!!!!!! There's just sooooooooo much hotness in this pic that my laptop can barely take it.

Vahn - Nice pic. It feels like there's something missing but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Yunie - I love your lala. You make me wish I could half as cute as you. However, I wasn't completely sold on this picture. I love the idea behind it but I felt like the NPC was too dark in contrast with how bright the lighting was on your character. I barely notice he's there because he blends into the background so much. I wish he had been featured better then it would've been an amazing pic to me.

Kaelah - I've been mulling over what to say about this pic for the last 15 minutes because I feel like it could've been a strong pic if more thought had been put into it. This pic felt TOO simple and bland. This pic could've been VERY different if you had been interacting with the NPCs in some way. I put a vote in for your pic because I had to vote for 8 pics in this round.

Thanks for the critique. Well if you see the NPCs in action, they are talking to tourists, and pointing them around. I tried to blend in with them by being one of them, rather than interacting with them. Perhaps I should have tried to capture some of the lost looking people in the shot too - but I felt things became too zoomed out when I tried. xD I hope that helps explain what I was trying to do with my pic anyway. ^-^

1. Yunie - Oh my friggin' goodness. This is too perfect. I really love how well you did this! This is wallpaper worthy. Great job! *Fav!*
2. Kin - I really love most of your photo's and your character, because she looks like a ghost. xD I agree, the light and dark skin works well.
3. Kaelah - You look like their older sister kind of. The 'different' sister. o: And yeah if you noticed the NPC's are kinda like guides and talking to the people.
4. Kurri - I'm about die at the cuteness haha. Both of you look so tired and cute together. c:
5. Maxwell - "We attack at dawn!" Biggs: "W-wait, what?" Wedge: W..wait a minute, slow down! - I really like this, you look like one of them and Cid's like >>...
6. Jayzan - You look like a happy pirate captain and they are the crew!
7. Vahn - #Swag. xD I like the red and blue thing haha.
8. Tinsely - "Buwaha, I'ma clown...!" And the NPC is just looking at you like "Get back to your post Tinsely...and take off that ridiculous stuff" -.-;

Why I didn't pick the rest.
1. Ciara - Yda's big sister. I liked this however I felt it to be a little on the plain side.
2. Ronberku - Looks like brothers and both look deep in thought, but hmm...I liked the others a lot more. ^^;
3. S.Q. - A little too plain to me to be honest. ): Too far zoomed, but it's a good piccie.
4. Yuni - Same as S.Q. and I dunno what you're trying to do here. o: Hm..Contrast in colour?

Good luck everyone!

Good luck everyone!

I love when people feedback like this^^ but do please take time to consider the rules of the contest as well

The models were told that coordinate doesn’t mean they should have the exact same outfit, but instead the two outfits should complement each other. Please do NOT judge the backgrounds, as not all NPCs are positioned in the best spot! Only judge the models pose, outfit, and overall feel of coordination!
