haha you always make me laugh with your pictures which is ALWAYS a pluss.
"A" for originality I'd say. but your face is like "lol my friend is pretending to be a 50's jerk" and not so much like "oh crap i'm about to get my butt kicked for being a nerd"
it was really really adorable though and i enjoyed it a lot

you have a real talent at appealing to peoples emotions and this has shown through several times in the past. a few of your pictures have absolutely made me rethink my perception of what a good picture is made of. you incorporate humor and happiness into your pictures, a special uniqueness that is hard to come by.

pluxxxx-

ah! i'm a sucker for class, i must admit. this picture was all about class i think and it was just a joy to observe. i liked the background and even the facial expression, almost challenging one to sit with you. or at least that's what it looks like.
i would have liked a different setting other than a mattress. perhaps it would have looked more natural if you had a chair and a table of sorts?

you're a master of getting the camera to work with you. perhaps its because of your previous experience? nevertheless i always enjoy your work. you've made it this far for a reason. you have a real talent. real genuine creativity. your quirky and clever ideas have gotten you far in this competition, also i think it was just pure natural good looks that have helped a ton.



PD -

i've always been a great fan of your work and you're a brilliant girl with lots of creative ideas. this being no exception. however, i didnt really pull out vintage from this picture, i interpreted it more as ... not so much an older time... but rather, a much older person. and it wasn't just the dress either. the facial expression and the dullness was all quite bleak and took away from the otherwise entertaining colors and angles.
a vintage theme doesn't mean sad depression, it can mean something fun rather like what gash portrayed.

you have a wonderful, whimsical sense of style and fashion that i very much respect. it takes real skill and genuine beauty to pull off something as unique as full-face makeup. you're quite different from all the contestants we had this cycle, and that's whats been getting you through.


thank you all for making it this far, you're all quite spectacular and it will be a tough decision this time around~

Hmmm. Honestly I was hoping for something a little more stunning now that it's down to the top three. D: They're okay. I just wish it was better.

Gash;
Very funny. The whole vintage nerd thing is totally great here. The clothes are well represented with the era. However, your expression looks more like you're laughing whether than about to get a mouthful of fist.

Plux;
This is the first time Plux is my favorite. It's very interesting and a well taken picture. However your clothes don't necessarily represent vintage to me in a sense that, that style is very era-generic. The background you photo shopped in and the brushes are really the only real vintage looking thing about this. Also I think if you wanted to drain the color from the photo, sepia would have been more convincing than straight up black and white since your clothing could be from many hundred years back or even today. Your expression, however, really does remind me of vintage photos, and that's what strikes me most.

PD;
This is the first time I was really disappointed by your picture. The clothes are great. The make up COMPLETELY takes away from the vintage thing. It's just off. The pale face for this theme was just wrong wrong wrong wrong wrooooong. It just takes away from the entire image and that's just too bad. Instead of looking fintage you look like Queen Amidala(sp?) meets Back To The Future. The hair is wrong too. For that era you should have poofed is up. Tease tease tease tease HAIRSPRAY. Your expression is also dead. :{ It doesn't look like you're having any fun at all. Very disappointing.


My vote is for Plux this round.

I think this is the first time that I'm not even considering voting for PD.

I usually vote for her, but she was a disappointment this time.



Gash's is hilarious. xD
Love it.
Like the others said, you should've been freaking out, not laughing.
But it's still great.
You've got the suspenders and the glasses and the whole thing.
It's beautiful.



Plux's looks very vintage at a first glance.
His face is good, and the wall and the lights and the tea and all that are good.
But I agree that it shouldn't've been on a matress. xD
And that it would've looked better in brown tone instead of b&w.
Overall, it was a great picture in my book.



PD didn't do so good.
To be honest, I don't even think she looks pretty here, but I know she's gorgeous.
The clothes are right, but the face looks weird, and the scenery confuses me.
I'm not sure why you chose to take your picture there.
You look more like you're dressed for work or something.
I think the only thing I liked about this picture was the clothes, but even that wasn't extraordinary.




In the end, I think I'm voting for Gash. [:

I was going for the whole crappy english victorian bedsit setting. LOL
There aren't many "vintage places" near me.
Thanks for voting!

GASH's picture made me laugh, it's great.
But Plux' picture is more vintage imo.
xD
PostPosted: Sun Oct 21, 2007 8:16 am


Gash, that picture would've been absoultely perfect if you weren't smiling.
xD
but it's not your fault. It's still an incredibly awesome picture.

I love Plux's too. Very dignified and defined, like you picture your grandparents were at one time. Very nice.

PD, As much as I like the picture and it's idea, I think you were just outplayed this round. It was a very intresting shot, I just don't think it appealed to the 'vintage' theme.
My vote's for either Gash or Plux.
I can't decide.
As usual.

Plux has my vote. I love everything about that picture. : )
PostPosted: Sun Oct 21, 2007 6:40 pm


Voted for Gash in this one.

I luled and it was still vintage.
But (kind of) a real life situation that really happened in those times,
and the clothes are hilarious. xD

Lol, and I don't blame you for laughing,
I probably wouldn't be able to take a picture without laughing either. xD

omg its nimbus
