I'm glad I was able to get it in! My grandmother ended up having to stay at work later so I had time. Then we went shopping and bought a bunch of clothes and some waffles. I got 6 Candie's bras for $70 cause they were on sale and gramma had a discount. That's... less than I buy two of them for full price. woot woot I have boob holders now! My white Candies one that I brought from home speared me in the chin with the underwire LOL

Had to convince her that yes, because i have boobs, I wear an XL in shirts. But since I have no butt, I can get away with a large in bottoms. So I put on the bottoms and she just goes "Oh." XD

My husband is hopeless while I'm away. He called me to ask me where the salad dressing was. Like.. I dunno, look in the fridge. He couldn't find it and texted me "I had to make my own dressing like an animal." XDDD

Anyway I'm about dead tired so I'm off.

ALRIGHT LADIES!!! ASSIGNMENT 1'S SCORES ARE UP AND ASSIGNMENT 2 HAS BEEN POSTED!!
Please read everything in the results section!!

No eliminations this round, but assignment 2 is a double-elimination round.

Subject: Re: International Glamour - Closed 5/20/2016, 6:27 pm

.Thanks for scores, and seen!

I couldn't find a really abstract pose cause I didn't have time to... I had to email the pic to myself as it was!

Subject: Re: International Glamour - Closed 5/20/2016, 7:25 pm

Daaaaaang so you do fancy slideshow result pages now Beech? Laughing

Lol thanks for the scoring and comments you guys XD I'm surprised by my score seeing as it was so last minute I barely found a decent pose in the first place. Razz

I do have one question about assignment 2...

The requirements warrant a closeup shot but also high fashion so how closeup should it be? Or should it be more of a waist up/bust up shot so that any clothing worn can be seen? In the example pic the model is just kind of wearing a bikini which is why I ask. Smile

I'll take 5th, because making that pose and picking clothes that wouldn't glitch was painful. I'm surprise I didn't get lower. Her facial expression was driving me nuts!

I did succeed in improving my quality, so that makes me happy. My monitor is really big, so it's better if I take bodyshot pics side ways and them turn them right side up later. I don't know why I'm just learning this.

Then shadow of the bird is a bird overhead out of view, but it was a dumb way of trying to fill in an empty space.

@MaggieSims Where do you see skin in the leggings? You know I'm blind lady. glasses

Checking in, all points noted although got to say each had reasons the hair up was due to me knowing I couldn't edit hair and with the pose being slightly sideways the hair wouldn't sit straight on her like game hair (and that would have bugged me being unatural) the accessories were the same sort of thing I couldn't figure out what angle they would sit at to look okay (I can only seem to edit make up lol).... I swear this was thought out and took hours (the pose only took 5) but the rest was hours.
I have an idea for next round anyway and hope it comes across better Very Happy

Yes, yes I do Smile

As far as the type of headshot goes, as it says, as long as it isn't below the waist (showing hips) you're fine. So any range from there up is fine.

Thank you all for checking in! I'm excited to see what you all do. The first round is a tough one always because you have to get the hang of what the judges wanted, so no worries and this round you will all rock it!

CLARIFICATION FOR EVERYONE

I've had several questions regarding "high fashion" for this headshot, so I thought I'd clarify for this assignment and future assignments...

This competition is a fashion competition, so honestly I expect every assignment to have a somewhat high fashion aspect to them. That being said, people tend to have a very wide and varied idea of what "high fashion" means.

So, when I say "high fashion" in the requirements, just do some google searches for what high fashion photography looks like and go from there (that's usually what I use). Think of images you'd see in magazine spreads, on billboards, or even on modeling shows (remember America's Next Top Model? Smile

)

Now, if you see me write "high fashion extreme", then go for something completely off the wall and outrageous - you know, stuff you see on the runway and think "No human would EVER wear that in real life."

So, I'm pretty lenient with the definition of "high fashion" - as long as it doesn't look sloppy, rushed, or if it looks like it belongs in a magazine, you're fine. Smile

THANK YOU for that clarification on the High Fashion part Beech! xD Omg You have no idea how many times I would get confused as to how high the fashion should be. Now I see what you mean! Fashionable but not plain and simple like a T-shirt and Jeans XDD When I think High Fashion I always think High Fashion runway model like this:
