Sep 07 Contest Discussion

[CathyH]

Would anyone be interested in posting there other versions?

[LonK]

Funny you should ask, CathyH.

This is just hearsay, but I understand that our model's little cousin, also an actress, really liked the teardrop diamond. Since she is about to begin filming a new Manga feature, in which she stars, she borrowed the prop in hopes of enhancing her character!

[CathyH]

That is funny Lonk.
Here is the evil twin sister of my first princess.

But really I was curious what the princess would look like if I copied the right side of her face and flipped it to make it symmetrical and this is what came out.

Lonk, a funny thing about my entry is when i showed it to my boyfriend he said, " you know what you should do, you should add a frozen tear under her eye" and i gave him the why in the heck would i do that look. Next day you had it, and it looked great so i was like now it would look like i copied so i didn't do it lol. Maybe he's not as artistically challenged as i thought.

Here is my "over the top" version. But then I decided sometimes less is more!

My version copied from, I mean inspired by Plattepro's avatar.

Interesting alternative symmetry, CathyH. I guess it's pretty obvious why those who did use symmetry went with the left side of the photo!

Curious coincidence, emilylt87. That's one of the reasons I decided to be the first to jump into this month's contest.

Ah, but that is just super, Nancy. I'm thinking that in the movie business, where competition is fierce for eyeballs, less is not necessarily more?

How clever, Doug. I'd guess that incognito look would best suit CathyH's rendition of the evil twin sister.

[CathyH]

Doug and Nancy those are great. We should have a contest on extreme makeovers.

[LonK]

More from the grapevine...

I heard another producer got a glimpse of our efforts. He liked the look of our model and just happened to be casting a part for the younger sister of Star Trek's 7of9. Here's his art director's vision for 5of9, another gorgeous Borg-in-recovery.

How bout an extreme weather makeover? 5 looks like a 9 of 9 to me Lonnie, (although a tad asymmetrical), and Nancy I also like your alternate - looks more balanced. Cathy, nice eyes, nice hair, nice nose, nice skin, nice area around the mouth...

[Nanls]

Thanks Cathy, Lonk and Doug,
I was kinda late putting up my entry and at the last minute decided to go with the simplistic one.... maybe the wrong move. Oh well, I love this type of contest. Love those eyelashes Cathy, an Extreme Makeover contest would be tooooo fun. Like the Borg in recovery concept, Lonk.

Alternative method...here it is.

I certainly enjoyed looking at everyone's unique concept of the challenge. There were some very good entries.

I have a question. Does anyone remember reading a story by Hans Christian Anderson? Disney made an animated movie of it, if I remember right. It was one of my favorite children's stories when I was much younger. Again, if I remember right, it was titled, "The Snow Queen".

[Doug Colwell]

Wow Janet, that looks great! You should've entered.

[Nanls]

Very Nice Janet!!!!

[LonK]

Another great disguise, Doug.

Thanks, Nancy. The Borg princess was a fun to make variant.

I love the texture mapping of your snow queen, Janet. That's similar to Solitear's entry, which I also liked.
