Just submitted my shot so here's the ones that didn't make it.

I ended up scouting and taking pictures in 15 locations around the GW contintents before Tasha threw a hissy fit

ok this time I try posting them before the deadline, results, following weeks assignment, and results ^_^

None of these really make me think glamourous. Nor do they betray Sali's AMAZING personality :P but i have a lil while to rustle something up. .... To the Crystal Desert!

Rosa Vixen · Oct 08, 2007, 05:43 PM // 17:43

lol i love em

During her glamour shot photoshooting, Rosemary developed a taste for trying to fit her body into the oddest places:

Back off girls, this year's Best Actress Oscar goes to Rose!

... <_<....>_>....*knocks on wood*

Oh, and this just reminds me of a bunnygirl....

Sali Su and co. · Oct 08, 2007, 10:02 PM // 22:02

hehe the last one is soooo true :P

but oooh, such glamourous poses rits have!

I can't believe what i just sent in. but then, I can. Its so Sali.

Haha, these shots look so good! I love this thread xD

I wish some of these would have been used for the actual competition, they're awesome!

Okay here is a reject one...like Tasha I ran my butt off to a lot of places deciding what is glam or just pretty or even too pretty and would take away from Kitara's potential superstarness lol... here is her "look away" impression of Greta Garbo's famous close up...

Chicken of the Seas · Oct 09, 2007, 03:12 AM // 03:12

My shots were more action shots then hollywood shots...but I hope at least something good will come out of it

Heres the outtakes:

Sorry so many, there were alot I liked =X

OMGOD, WHY DIDNT YOU USE THIS?! Oh My HONEST god, this is my favourite shot of yours, EVER.

WHOA

Edit: and Greta Garbo's fans get a +1 from me

Sali Su and co. · Oct 09, 2007, 06:06 AM // 06:06

Golly Kitiara that pic is sensational! (but so is ur other) this one is definately my fav tho!!!

Think I should have gone with this pose instead ^_^

but alas, from the comments, or lack there of i received, i'd say i'm outtie.

Queen Kitiara · Oct 09, 2007, 06:36 AM // 06:36

Ahhhh jeez lol....my noobness has got it's price huh lol... i took shots in front of clouds too :P then thought, no, not glam enough ha haha - its great to have constructive comments from the judges to learn from our own as well as others' mistakes and praises.
Thank you so much for the compliment Geishe, it means a lot coming from u! and u2 Sali! I pray we get another chance to do another assignment

Perynne · Oct 09, 2007, 06:37 AM // 06:37

Sue, I very much loved your action shots. So Kill Bill, and your character just looks so beautiful in them. Bridal costumes ftw! ^^ Aaaah, if they were just a little bigger they'd look amazing as a background for my computer.

And Kit... just... wow! I have to agree with Geishe, that is one amazing shot.

I think the background is still a little too busy for a glam shot, but it would work great for any other kind of shot. I love the soft light on your skin, and the exotic feeling that's just accentuated by the buildings. ^^

Sali Su, your mesmer is still gorgeous.

I kind of like what you were trying to go for in your submitted photo, it's definitely Sali Su from what I've seen of her in this contest.
I also like the top photo you put here, the background sets off your armor colour nicely. :3

After trying many backgrounds for my own shots, I just decided to opt for the safe way out and use a simple but beautiful sky pattern. :3 Other backgrounds were always taking too much attention away from my superstar and Rose wasn't having any of it.

Sali Su and co. · Oct 09, 2007, 07:32 AM // 07:32

I thought it looked glam cos of the snobbyness! like shes too awesome to talk to any of us lol...and the gold on her armour looked good against the desert i felt. but its done and I'm proud as. Across the board, from the start of the comp, I felt I was really next in line to go.

Will of course, be watching closely hehehe

Rosa Vixen · Oct 10, 2007, 02:02 PM // 14:02

a little late but..

good luck girls!!

Morag D · Oct 20, 2007, 09:44 AM // 09:44

hmm.. why am I possibly thinking some of us ended up dealing out vast amounts of juletide tonics to friends and guildies?

statement: no wintersday elves were injured during the shooting

Queen Kitiara · Oct 21, 2007, 04:19 AM // 04:19

Well here is my outtake

/cries...group fell apart after that shot thanks to the Wammo...I had them set up so nicely

and well since no photoshopping allowed and cropping would've been to harsh i decided to put this in outtakes *sniff...I decided to go all out and even though it was SUPER HARD to assemble so many people I just had to folo thru on my vision...it was seriously hard to get help & keep it - and since there were 7 dwarves it was too large for a party >.< so intown brought clowns like the wammo that got in my shot...ended up going to an international district...I'd like to thank all the people that tried to help ( some refused the 500g i offered for their time) so here are all of them that helped at some point in time ....and 20 tonics later (yes i am really poor now lol)

This was my other choice for the photo to send in, but I ended up with the other one because of candy colours and a more fantasyish feeling:

My, what big teeth you have!

This round didn't give any really funny shots. :P The wolf was interesting to work with, my helper had to run around in circles around me to get just the right spots and good mood. Still, pets are pretty random, so out of about 1800 shots I only got a couple really awesome ones.

Kit, I love your photo! It just screams fairytale princess (and Snow White, of course!). I think a slightly different armor choice might have helped to make her look more princess-like, something that isn't quite so sharp and pointy, but your idea and execution really worked wonders. Good job!

Elves scare me. x_X

Torikae · Oct 21, 2007, 12:50 PM // 12:50

I've not had any amusing outtakes to post lately =[
Here are a couple of mine, anyway.
This was the other shot I was considering for Hollywood Glamor. I liked the grass, but, the lighting and the pose weren't so nice, I think:

And as for this week, Ashling got a little stressed when her Prince Charming was late to the shoot:

But here are a few cute poses I liked, once Illias had invested in Necrotic Traversal, and I had invested in Asuran Armour (I'm so weak!

).

Perynne (Rosemary) GRATS on a stellar shot! I had u pegged to win at first sight

Nice job! Seems like we both asked for trouble working with elements that are hard to control (wolf & 7 elves) BUT it totally paid off

so I'm happy for us

I can't tell u how much I agonized over the armor issue and would love to know what armor you would have picked...I chose Templar (old Knight's) because the sleeves seemed puffy like the Disney char's dress (i wished I could afford elite templar :S)- I tried to combo it with a skirt and color it with a blue top and yellow skirt...ya it was horrendous lol; and decided to go white...it was a risk I thought was worth taking to be visually appealing over accurate...glad the judges embrace artistic impression!

It was hard for me to find a dress basically so I tried to say...well what if Snow White was a warrior princess? Anyways I'd love to hear what you guys would've done...

Kiti has limited wardrobe choices...not having played NF (only my monk has halfway) and I've ran to locations in GWEN but with my hectic life I haven't played it >.< maybe that is what I'll end up doing next assignment...fighting my butt off to get appropriate wardrobe ha ha

Awesome job guys it was a great challenge! "Cringing" as we see what the next assignment is cuz you know its gonna get harder - yikes!
