OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

[Kurique]

Kurri: Hmm.. well, I like the environment the photo was snapped in. Kurri's face is very well defined in the shot. But there's not much else here. The pose taken while fishing almost makes Kurri look angry, and I'm not a fan of the choice of headgear. I get the point of the wardrobe selection, but I just can't get over that hat.

I will not be pigeonholed! I know that being adorable all the time would probably get me more votes, but I'm ok with that. I like her angry face. (It's her normal face actually. There's a reason my Legacy hoodie says "Angry Eyebrows.") Thanks for your opinion though.

P.S. I love that hat! That hat is pure fluffy gold. I would wear that hat in real life in the middle of July.

I loved your pic, Kuri and i respect you for not going the cute-route. She looks feisty, like she's battling the biggest fish she's ever caught and she ain't goin' down without a fight! I didn't vote for you for the same reason i didn't vote for Kaelah, it all came down to the lighting of your character and the fact you can't clearly see the details in her face. Other than that though, it's a pretty perfectly timed screenshot!

P.S. I love that hat too and follow your sentiments exactly! :3

Jericho here.

So, your comment made me feel that perhaps I was harsh in my critique.. particularly regarding the headgear. So, I sauntered over to the market boards to try one on myself! I was under the impression that the wooly part of the hat was surrounding the entire head like a ball, rather than being like a sort of "barrette" that only covers the top of the head, with a little cloth-like hood taking shape beneath it all. So... perhaps the headgear can be used to good effect. I'm still not exactly a fan of looking like a walking Q-Tip from a frontal perspective, though. And definitely not a look that a Highlander lad pulls off well. It just looks... strange... on me!

Also, I don't want you to think that I felt your shot was "bad", or that you have to be adorable all the time to capture votes. You can still be a total bad-ass as a Lalafell, it's just not the easiest look to pull off for that particular race. All of these screenshots are very, very well composed. I haven't seen very many that I would call "bad" during this competition. But if it comes down to having to choose 5 images that I would consider the best, I have to omit a lot of good shots for what I personally consider to be "better" shots. Not always an easy proposition.

Looking forward to seeing your submissions in future rounds!,
Jericho

[EorzeasNTM]

Is it just me or are we a lot more popular this voting round? 5 pages in the first day! :OOO

Alright, updated the image and it looks so much better! I used GIMP actually not photoshop. Couldn't figure out how to do this...

in Imgur, so I came to work and downloaded gimp to get it to look exactly how I wanted. Thanks for the two of you who sent in pictures though!! ^^;;

[Kouren]

Looks so much better! Glad you were able to put that together, Rongi, and thanks again for all your time and effort.

[EorzeasNTM]
