Welcome everyone to the tenth round critiques. This round, we wanted you all to bring us your best shot of the game.
Let's see how you all did.
Let's see how you all did.
Deepika
Bingbing: I think I'm responding better to the hidden face aspect of this photo than Emma is. We see enough of your face to get a good impact, but the hidden half teases us and I like the effect. The blue is a beautiful shade and I like the little fashion we do get from this. It's a very nice photo and has an appropriate wow factor to work for a Freestyle shoot.
Amanda: Yeah, the blue shawl fuzzying in front of you. That's my only issue. That aside, flawless.
Emma: Deepika, the part of your face that we can see is FLAWLESS. And, honestly, I wouldn't be too upset with part of your face being covered. But the way that the blue shawl kind of takes the foreground, it's definitely a distracting element to me. That's the only negative thing I really have to say though.
Jennifer: This is excellent, modeling rules be damned. I'm reminded of a similar photo from a National Geographic cover. It's all in your eyes and it works wonderfully. FANTASTIC!
Jensen: WOW, flawless!!! Except for the blue at the side that is not part of your veil, this photo is just unbelievably WOW

Madonna
Bingbing: I love the posing, the angles of the shoot itself, I love it's it's monochromatic, and the fashion's nice, too. Those boots are fantastic. The wow factor could be amped up just a bit more, but overall, it's a very strong submission this round. Great work.
Amanda: Monochrome? Well this certainly is artistic even despite that. Your expression is too stiff for me too, though, and I feel like this doesn't blow me away as much as it could have. Even so, very, very strong outing. Good job!
Emma: I'm liking the interesting lines we get here. The monochromatic colors don't bother me here. Great body, face, and modeling. I just wish there were more of a wow factor with this. After all, we are down to the final 4. You need to make sure you stand out!
Jennifer: Another excellent shot from you. I like this a lot, and I think the colors are different without causing too much blending, good job on that. I also really like the angle, something about having to turn my head to see it makes it just that much more interesting of a photo to look at. While it doesn't POP quite how some would like, I still think this stands out on its own very well. Good work!
Jensen: YOWZA!!! Except for your expression, this is just beautiful. Your skin is flawless. And most of all, I love seeing new photos from you that I haven't seen in other games. Great job!
Bingbing: I'm familiar with this shoot.
I like that you didn't go with the shot you used in ANTM, even though that shot was probably my favorite from this shoot. Still, I do really like this shot, too. There's a nice, striking graphic prevalent in all photos in this shoot and I love how high fashion this feels. The pop of red is all the color we need here and is a nice touch to keep it from being too blue. I like your interaction with your mannequin. Cover her eyes so she doesn't steal your spotlight. This late, I do need to nitpick a bit, so I will have to bring up the watermark in the bottom right, but it's not that noticeable, so not really a problem.
Amanda: Yeah, it's strong. Not overwhelming me, and the eyes aren't connecting with the camera as well as they could (you are working that smize, though!). The concept is certainly unique and you do take the spotlight over the mannequin, but... I don't know. I think the way your eyes are is what's making something amiss for me here. But still, good job!
Emma: I really like this Megan. I think it's intriguing, and for freestyle, I think a main goal is to be memorable and have a story. Well done!
Jennifer: I love how over and over you consistently submit shots that I have to double take to make sure they are actually you. I'll admit I had a little difficulty making sure you weren't the mannequin at first glance. Overall it is a strong submission, you have a lot going on here without it being too overwhelming, good balance. I think it works well with the freestyle theme. Good work!
Jensen: This is gorgeous. You're flawless and your profile is just amazing. The eyes feel a bit dead because of their angle, but otherwise, nice job.
Bingbing: I love the posing, the angles of the shoot itself, I love it's it's monochromatic, and the fashion's nice, too. Those boots are fantastic. The wow factor could be amped up just a bit more, but overall, it's a very strong submission this round. Great work.

Selena
Bingbing: You look stunningly beautiful in this shot and I love your accessorizing. Like Emma, I have a bit of a problem with the slouching, but the quality in this shot is top notch and it's a really nice beauty shot. Good work overall.
Amanda: I don't see slouching, but I don't see neck, and I think that's what they were getting at. The way this is executed makes me think you could stand out more by being taller and showing off your stuff. Still, you're very gorgeous and I happen to like it. I don't love it like your photo last round, though.
Emma: Selena, this is pretty, but I am gonna call you out on that slouched pose of yours. You look a little Quasi Moto. The black and white elements work nicely with the fashion, thought your face is a little dull. I was kind of hoping for more since you've been on fire lately, but this isn't bad. The quality is impeccable, and the lighting is highliting the perfect places on your face. You should be ok.
Jennifer: I have to agree more with Jensen on this one, the slouching Emma and Bingbing are referring to isn't noticeable to me (I see table leaning). Coupled with the fantastic quality and excellent lighting, there is nothing really to nitpick here. Well done on submitting an excellent shot without being a 'in your face, look at me' photo. Good work!
Jensen: You so do not look anything like Quasi Moto lmfao You don't even look to be slouching, you look like you're leaning on a table in front of you lol. The other judges are just nitpicking because we have to find SOMETHING wrong with a photo, right lol Flawless beauty <3
