Eorzea's Next Top Model - Cycle 3 Round 4

[Adeline]

W O M A N Z:
Adeline: YOU'RE LOOKING PRETTY FLY, FOR A DEAD GUY! ( Girl, lady, woman w/e! )

Fruity-S-senpai...!!

[Nyxia-Salix]

Ladies:

Eirwen- I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! It literally looks like you're at wits end trying to survive and it's amazing! It's not just a beauty shot, and your expression is perfect. It's obvious you worked hard on it.

Sakuraya- Way to go being the only night shot for ladies! Deserts are actually more dangerous at night, and it looks like you captured the distress of being lost and trying to survive very well! Your party is dead and you're the only one left trying to fight off enemies and it looks great!

Kaiyoko- Pretty and perfect for the subject! The look of suffering and the pose you're in are really great, and the mirage effect makes the shot beautiful! I wish I could get you a glass of water lol you look like you need it there!

Guys:

Epsil- THANK GODS IT ISN'T SAND! I loved this shot for more than just that though! It looks great, the coeurl in back creeping up on you is an amazing touch, and the lighting looks great while it's also a night shot! It's probably my fave from the guys!

Flare- This is cute and a great shot too! It looks like you're about to get gobbled up poor thing! Your expression is priceless too, great job!

Jinx- You look absolutely and perfectly lost! I'm not sure the chocobo will be able to help you find your way, but he does look super good in that lighting! I'm also glad you didn't pick an entirely sandy background for the shoot!

[Mimilu]

ehh I'm cuter then all of them

But can you take a good picture? >w>

[Sangriah]

Women's

Eirwen Mackenzie: Its easy for me to imagine an entire day has gone by with this poor girl doing what she can to survive. There's so much I love about this screenshot but its still that little cactuar earring that really puts it over the top for me lol

Kaiyoko Star: Magnificent shot. The sun really looks like its beating you down and is so very harsh. Awesome timing with the emote and facial expression.

Iris Dawnshade: Great idea with the water flask here. This shot has a simple feeling to it but its very easy to understand what's going on. The desert feels vast and dry in the background and your green eyes really pop in this.

[Sangriah]

Men's

Epsil Ion: At first, I didn't feel like this was a desert shot and that you were just posing, but there are oasis' sprinkled throughout the desert where a person would go to survive. The fact that you have the weapon drawn and there's a couerl in the back changed things for me. The more I looked at this screenshot the more I felt like a couerl myself, ready to pounce on you. This shot is so casually sexy and how did I not know that the highlander undergarments looked like THAT!? Is that couerl in the background drooling for the same reasons I am? :P You may survive that couerl but not any lonely women who may happen by.

Adam Fylrmyn: You surprised me with this one. The underbrush looks so dry and you look so genuinely exausted with the sun beating down on you.

Flare Anderfel: Great timing on that sandworm, its ready to chomp down on you! I like that you show that there are other aspects to surviving the desert other than just the terrible heat.

Gah...only 3!!?!


Fine...here it goes

for the ladies we have

Overlord Rikkustrife - I had this weird "mad max beyond thunderdome" vibe going on in my mind while looking at this shot. Not sure if you are surviving or being worshipped though, its a bit lost in translation, but I dig the mad max thing.

Rhaya Relenah - I appreciated the artistic approach in this shot, crop you out, its just a desert, put you back in and there's a huge story going on. I kinda liked the simplistic but intricate outfit style too.

Xev Bellwyn - My immediate response to this is, AW how cute, eat it for nourishment naow!!! While the clothing doesn't suggest living on the edge of death, it still loved this shot.

---Men ---

Adam Fylrmyn - One of the first basic steps in desert survival, find shade fast. I loved the angling work in this photo, and choice of gear, nice work.

Flare Anderfel - “Bless the Maker and His water. Bless the coming and going of Him. May His passage cleanse the world. May He keep the world for His people. ” That sums it up. Wonderfully fun shot.

Marik Destiel - Muad'dib, another dune like approach for this round, learn to ride the worm to become one with the desert ! I enjoyed this, it was near not choice though for one main reason, the angling/positioning felt off, good story but remember to be mindful of the camera.

Good job to everyone else, this was a tough round to do with only 3 choices

[pooch]

The following suit the theme of trying to survive the struggles of the desert, a lot of you look like you're dying, which you are but not dead (yet).
The rest of you look dead, surviving doesn't involve being dead.
