Eugen...
 I've wanted to submit this forever, but every time I thought I could, it didn't work for the challenge. So since this is freestyle, I'm choosing it now. I like this, Eugen. I like the up-close view of you, and I think your outfit adds nice personality to this photo. I wish you didn't look so stoic, but other than that, nice work. Hilary: Eugen, I am disappointed. I'm not sure why you like this but I hate the hat and the outfit. It just looks corny...and you don't look like your usual gorgeous self here.  Janice: You know what I wish we would have required that these boys do... tell us why they picked this shot. Because I don't see why this shot would be even considered for the shoot. It does nothing to impress me and I can't figure out what about it impresses you. It's not in particular either Eugen. It's just a boring close-up with you wearing a Mexican style Tuxedo and a cowboy hat. I'm sorry. I just don't get it.

Andrew...Julia: I like this, Andrew. I like the old time look it has to it, and I think you look nice. I like your pose and I think the smoke effect adds a nice touch to the photo. It is something a bit different that we haven't really seen from you, so, altogether, nicely done. Hilary: Nice, Andrew. The fading bothers me a bit but when I see the fog, it seems to fit. I do think you look very hot here - one of your best. Good job! Janice: I actually like the look of this Andrew. I like the smoke effect in the background. It's so much better then boxes.  But you look good. Once again I would be wondering why you picked this one. What made it jump out at you and say "WOW"... because I'm not really going WOW, I'm just kind of nodding my head and saying "OK, It works". The right side of your body looks a little tense, compared to your left (as I am looking at the picture). That is the only bit of awkwardness I see here.

Ryan... This was a no brainer for me. This picture has always been my favourite from all. The colour scheme, the pose, everything works perfectly to show a softer side. It's one of those pictures which are so simple and yet they seem so profesional and so amazing. I just love it. And I hope you ladies do too. I, too like the colors this photo has going on, and I think you have a very nice profile in this shot. I also like your muscular build. Overall, this is good. Hilary: Eh....this is okay, Ryan. I am not in love with it. It just doesn't have that wow factor for me...I think you look a little sad, maybe that's what I don't like. Janice: Hmmm, alright. I do like the colors of the shot but still it's just a hmmm. I do agree with your Julia. I like your muscular build. You are showing it off totally here by not letting your face be the focus. It's alright. Not great but still, its interesting enough I'd say. Kind of.

Mathias... Looking serious, and in a reflective mood. Nice, Mathias! I really think this is good. It's different, it's a unique pose, and you look really good. GOOD JOB! Janice: Mathias!!!!! You've been in my own personal wardrobe closet again have you NOT??? That is my blouse! Am I wrong??? I'll have to talk to Sorin about that. Obviously he must have let you sneak past. You can keep the blouse, now that you've sweated on it I'm sure!. Anyway, this isn't a bad shot. It's very dark with dark. But still I love the Jeans! I'm a sucker for reflection shots and your reflection isn't even your reflection. It's an actual picture within a picture? Your face angles don't' match. Very cool. Good job her Mathias on giving me a reason to stare at a picture. Julia: This is very nice, Mathais. I think you look very hot and I like your attire. Your stare is so strong, as is your expression. I like the whole look to this photo, and, overall, you did well!

Miro...Julia: Well, Miro, you certainly know how to please the ladies and offer up three sides of man candy...  No, seriously, I like this and I don't feel like you're being too outshined by the two fellows you're posing with, because you're making eye-contact with the camera and they are shielded by their sunglasses. Altogether, I think this is nicely done. Hilary: Okay, Miro. The first thing I thought when I saw this was "OH NO! Why would he submit a photo with other hot male models in it when he could pick ANYTHING he wants???" But then I took another look. I agree that you stand out, because of the lack of sunglasses...but their bodies are certain as hot as yours. I do like this; however, I would have loved to just focus on you and no one else. (what am I saying - I am getting 3 hotties for the price of 1) Janice: I actually do NOT like this photo Miro. I know, all of you male hate my guts and I don't CARE! That's fine. But there are a couple of reasons why I'm not fond of it. I swear we have seen this look from you already... This on the beach in a shirt, and jeans. I don't know. I mean you have a hot body that is a given. But honestly, what I detest the most about this the way your face looks like you've been in a couple of fights over the course of years. It just looks a bit mangled or deformed. Your eyes looks sunken in and very small and your nose looks huge. Like everything is out of proportion. Maybe it's because of where you in relation to the shot, or the lighting is giving on wacky shadowing, or the way your head is tilted up kind of odd. But It's not an attractive face shot.

Evandro... Julia: Well, Evandro, I have to say I am not all that impressed. This isn't really anything different that you haven't shown us before. I mean last shoot you were supposed to be dressed to impress, and this just seems like a redux of that. Also, the quality in this photo is not that great. I just think, with as many photos as you have at your disposal to use, that you could have had the potential to really knock our socks off here, and I am just finding this photo to be bland. Sorry.  Hilary: Evandro, this may have been good for GQ but I was hoping you'd do something different. The quality is really bad - something looks very weird about your face. Sorry, love. Janice: I don't have a lot to say here that hasn't already been said by Hilary and Julia. The quality... hmmm. I'm scratching my head on why you chose this Evandro. Was this the last photo in your portfolio that you had left to use so therefore it wasn't really a choice since it's all you had? I don't know darling. I'm sorry but the quality is just that bad. I do agree, It would have worked well for GQ but since we just did GQ. I don't know. I'm just left scratching my head on why this picture? Why? And what is with that bag hanging out away from your body? You look very uncomfortable. I'm sorry. |

I'm sure your past record would be enough if you were to possibly fall into the final two ;D
