I love your model’s pose and facial expression, it’s almost uncaring. I love how there’s a green glow to everything, very eerie. Great job!

I really love this picture! She reminds me of rumplestiltskin frolicing around the fire! Lol I dunno what else to say....the lighting, her outfit, her pose are all perfect, and I especially love the raven in the background. Well done!

It’s interesting that you went in the opposite direction and did a happier picture. I like it, but it’s a bit simple. Good job.

I like this picture, but it’s a bit too simple. I do like how it’s taken from below, so that you’re looking up at her...makes it more interesting. Also, the lighting is nice. But, again, it’s too simple. There needs to be more going on. Good job.

I’ve decided not to disqualify you, because I know you worked really hard one your picture, and you were confused on the rules. Also, you’re an amazing artist, and I feel you deserve a second chance. I am, however giving you a low score, and a warning. As for the picture, it looks awesome! I don’t think it really even needed the guy in the middle, to be honest.

Dropped Out or Didn't Show

Elise Adler – chibi_goth15
Sorry to see you go, luv. Hope to see you next cycle!

Iali Vadoll – sootyowl143
Damn, I was looking forward to seeing your picture. Well, hope to see you next cycle!




Eliminated

No one, since one person dropped out and another didn't show.


Good luck on the next assignment!

Assignment Four

-Phobias-

In this assignment, each model will be assigned a different phobia that they will have to represent in their photo. Your model can be either dying from, facing, dead from, or overcoming their phobia...it's your choice, but it has to be your model's fear, not someone elses....if that makes sense... Be creative, and have fun!!

-Rules-

1. Please only post ONE picture.

2. No copying!

3. Editing is allowed, but PLEASE keep it to a MINIMUM!! Really, the only editing allowed is stuff like cropping, lighting, stuff like making the pic black and white or sepia...stuff that anyone can do with a basic program. Basically, anything that changes the tone/atmosphere of the pic is ok. Also, if there's something like a bald spot that some of the CC hair has at certain angles, then you can fill it in. But that's it! As for editing that's not allowed is stuff like adding/transposing backgrounds or objects. Basically, if it's not in your game or can't be done in your game, then it shouldn't be in your picture! (CC is considered part of your game, so it's ok, duh. lol) This competition is designed to push the limits of your creativity, so use it!

4. No changing models. You must use the one you entered! You can, however, change her hair, clothes, makeup, traits, everything but her face/body(including skintone).

5. Other sims are allowed in the picture, just make sure your sim is the main focus.

6. Remember to keep it Gothic!


Breaking the rules may lead to elimination. You have been warned!
I've decided to not disqualify anyone, just eliminate them, when they have broken the rules...unless someone drops out or doesn't show, then they will just have the lowest score. With the rate that people have dropped out, it seems unfair to disqualify people.

If you have any questions about the rules, don't hesitate to ask.

I'll get it in when I can.

Double post...

Important!!

I'm turning 21 on the 16th!! My grandparents are taking me to Reno to gamble and get snockered! So, I will not be here from the 16th til about the night of the 20th. FYI

Cheers!
Akasha

PS- For any non-Americans, 21 is the age Americans have to be to drink and gamble....

Well then, Have a wonderful birthday,great time gambling and hope you don't feel awful the next morning,lol.You have cool Grandparents. it's 18 in Quebec

Thanks. Lol, my grandpa's Irish and my grandma loves casinos, so hopefully it'll be fun for everyone!

And I think it's completely ridiculous that America's the only country with the legal drinking age of 21! Damn puritanical society!!

If it makes ya feel better, SS, the British government are contemplating moving our drinking age up to 21 Tis still 18 atm, and i'm glad i only have another 9 months till me 21st - but gotta feel sorry for the youngins Lol!

And i seriously want your Grandparents XD They sound so cool! Happy Birthday for tomorrow and have a fab time in Reno We'll be waiting with antacids and bacon butties, to help with the hangover Haha!

I go back to lurking again, now

X

Thanks for posting here, Akasha! The new sections are playing peek-a-boo with me (can't see em now).

Enjoy your time in Reno...sounds like fun--your grandparents sound awesome

Although the drinking age here in Canada is 18, my Polish Grandpa started offering me whiskey when I was 10 and my dad didn't care if I drank his beer when I was a teen...just only when my mom wasn't around

well happy birthday! just in time for national drinking day, eh? lol

Happy birthday and I have a FANTASTIC idea for my phobia. I have two or three, actually, but this will be a fun shoot!

mine seems almost too easy.. ill have to try to NOT go for the obvious and make it interesting

sweeeet i have a great idea for mine!!! now i just have to reinstall my CC (i updated my game) lol!

Thank you to all of you! And yes, my grandparents are very cool. I've pretty much been able to drink since I was like 16 (even though I didn't very often), so this won't really be too much of a stretch. It's just nice to know that I can have a Guinness with my Gramps on St. Paddy's Day!!

Anywho!! I'm glad you're all liking this assignment! I know it's kinda easy, but I'm looking forward to seeing what you all come up with!!

Kira knew it was a terrible idea, but she was coerced by the carnie that the mirror maze was child's play. As she found herself getting turned around and around, her throat started to contract and she was running out of breath. She could feel the oxygen get thinner and she knew if she were trapped much longer she'd never see the open sky again. Panic-stricken, she careened around corners, screaming and pleading for help...

silver glint; shards of fire
draw the moon down from her throne
with me you shall wander
through my forest
silver fire

brightly lights gleam
red and yellow
painted faces swallow whole
trapped and turned
never heard from

never heard from

I'm really glad you decided not to eliminate anyone -- you're an awesome judge!

Happy almost Birthday!!! I thought you were older! Hey, have some extra fun for ME when you're in Reno -- I'd looooove to be there! Your grandparents sound wickedly cool...my mother STILL doesn't like the idea of me and I'm well over 21

I actually have an idea of what I might do for this assignment which means it won't turn out the way I want it to and I'll end up doing something completely different...


edit: Lyrian! That's AWESOME! How the heck did you make that so fast?!
