All the judges have critiqued, and we're waiting on 2 votes.
Courteney
Allison: You mentioned before the season started that you were afraid of looking too old, and I have to say that you look old here. Don't get me wrong, old can be beautiful, but it isn't working in your favor here.
Twiggy: I actually like the fact that you went with eu natural look this round, tho I agree with Allison that you look old, but for me I think in a good way. I like this, its not too bad but I think you can do a lot better!
Jared: You're a beautiful woman Courtney, only you can make yourself look old. Here, you do. But I also love the simple beauty of this photo. It's good, just not great.
Jensen: I like this I don't think it's a Very Strong Photo granted but I think that it is enough to make it through
Emma
Allison: I'm going to start off by saying that I like your setting here, it's obviously very "natural" and I like it. But, your expression... it's not the best... you just look a little crazed here. That and the cropping, I thought you were standing here until I noticed your knee popping up.
Twiggy: I don't know where to start with this. That expression really threw me off the chair! that hat is ugly and distracting and the cropping is really bad too. I would like to see a full body shot which I think would make a different here.
Jared: I'm not sure how I feel about this. I know Emma can do better than this, but it's outside in nature and you're cute, just a bit over the top here.
Jensen: I think that the biggest problem were all having with this photo is the expression. I like the hat actually. But the expression kills the photo
Hyorin
Allison: I like that you tried to go creative here, but I don't think it worked out very well in terms of theme connection. Yes, it's a tree, but this reminds me of urban art, and urban is the opposite of nature.
Twiggy: What the heck are you thinking Hyorin? This is bad, I don't buy it. Nothing about this photo that I like except for the pop of colors. The saving grace is that you look great and you're modelling very well!
Jared: It's a painting of a tree unfortunately, so I"m not buying it. You look cute and sexy, but we needed nature.
Jensen: I don't like this. The theme connection here is weak. And I don't think it works well at all
Jessica
Allison: I like this. You have a cute outfit and I love your face and your pose, good job!
Twiggy: I think this picture would look better in color. With that being said, I like this photo. I love the fact that you're modelling and selling your outfit, job well done!
Jared: Another picture I haven't seen before.............nice!!! I love your face, as always, it's a gorgeous face. Your pose is cute and I like that you're laying in the grass. I really like that you're wearing nothing but a sweater
Jensen: I love this. I like the pose and the setting. You know if you want to remove that jacket a little further no one is stopping you
JLaw
Allison: I was so worried you wouldn't submit, so I'm very happy that you made it on time. No worries about it being in crunch time, it happens to the best of us. This is much better than last week. Obviously you nailed the nature part, you look like you're going huntingfor people. I wish it was just a bit bigger, but I like your pose and your face, and of course thank you for listening to us!
Twiggy: This is way better than the last round but there is no modelling and fashion value to this which I think is very important in this game and something which you should consider moving forward. You nailed the nature part & that's all that I like. The outfit doesn't do you any favor nor the pose. I'm really disappointed, I'm hoping for good things coming from you. I've gone through your profile and you've such an amazing photos to choose from but why this?
Jared: I too wish this were bigger. I liked you last round so I can't say way better lol but I do think this is just as good. The pose is good, your expression is good and the setting is great. So good job darling.
Jensen: I think this was Very predictable. I heard nature looked at you and was able to say Hunger Games pic. But in a competition like this I guess we'll have to see if predictablity works out in your favor or not
Katy
Allison: This is very fun and flirty, and you're still modelling very well. This doesn't pop out to me, but it also isn't bad, so good job overall, Katy.
Twiggy: Finally! for the first time, I'm impressed! great job Katy! I love this, you definitely step it up this round. I'm speechless! I love everything about this photo.
Jared: Great comeback Katy. Those legs are amazing!!!! The pose is very sexy. I really like this a lot and I'm glad because I know you have a good port so I'm excited to see it all.
Jensen: Am I the only one whose mainly focused on the drink.
I looked at the drink looked at Katy and was like I would totally buy that.
Overall not bad i like photos that make me do that
Keira
Allison: This is very, very dark, and I like that. The biggest downside of this photo is your face- it's just a bit too dull. I love that dress on you, and I think your pose fits with the setting.
Twiggy: This is okay for me. Nothing really stand out, it look rather dull. You need to work on your expression and pose!
Jared: This was the first picture that I ever saw that impressed me about Keira. She's so bony, and I hate it, but this photo doesn't make her look sickly. The dress is gorgeous, the angle is cute, the setting is great. Just be careful with your expression. Otherwise, this is top notch.
Jensen: I like this I like the pose mostly but the setting is nice too
Maria
Allison: Oh dear... looking through your portfolio, I think one of you being on the beach would have worked fine
You looked very washed out here, and this looks candid... but that's a cute koala you're holding.
Maria: The problem I had was I didn't have many nature pics to work with. There were 2 or 3 total and this happened to be the best one. I could have used some beach photo I suppose, but that doesn't really fit the nature theme very much. I felt a nature theme would deal more with being out in the woods, mountains,ect and throwing in some type of nature in the photo like an animal or some unique nature structure.
Twiggy: THIS. IS. BAD. This is the reason why I voted to send you home last round. Off you go now!
Jared: Unfortunately I'm worried we made a mistake last round. While you're very very cute, this looks candid. And I'm a pretty good judge when it comes to knowing the difference between a real candid and a photo shoot that seems candid, and I can't tell here. I'm not sure if it seems or is. I just read Alison's comment and did a search and you have a whole photo shoot done on the beach. Why didn't you use one of those? Ok I just read your reply. The problem now is, that the theme is called Nature/Outside. I would have went with quality to fit the theme more then unique honestly.
Jensen: Twiggy your so mean,
But yea I agree I think that there are probably better ones out the. That tennis one might of even worked better for this round
Reese
Allison: This is okay for me, not great, not horrible. True, your eyes are bright, but so is the photo... this has been filtered oddly, and that's distracting. And gurl, no one works those big eyes quite like I do <3 but it was a valiant effort and I do like how they're captivating rather than boring.
Twiggy: Nothing really pops up to me, this is just okay. After last round I really thought that you would be the one to beat but this photo really disappoint me. The only thing I like is the way you look at the camera and your expression, I think its odd but in a good way which in a way draws my attention.
Jared: The lighting isn't good, you look over exposed. I like the setting and the colouring but not fond of your face, only because of the lighting and angle.
Jensen: Expressions is the biggest problem here. You'll have to step it up next round
Selena
Allison: I LOVE your pose, your setting, and the outfit. This is a perfect combination of editorial and using the theme... you are working this. I love it. Great job!
Twiggy: Another decent photo from you but I don't like your pose and the way your hand is blocking your face. Where the heck is your NECK? Had you did something different with the pose, this photo could be stellar!
Jared: Sexy, hot damn, sexy. The pose is nice, the setting is nice, work on your face muscles when laying in this position. Your face is a bit odd. But overall, very sexy.
Jensen: Who cares where her neck is this photo is rocking. I love the pose and the setting. Wish I could see your whole boob face. Lol face I meant
Willa
Allison: This is very coy and flirty, and I love how your eyes draw me into the photo. My attention goes directly to you, and your outfit works well with the rainforest setting. Good job, Willa!
Twiggy: I don't get it! why is that many of you choose to submit a photo where it was oddly cropped and showed only the upper body? I like how flirty and fun your expression is but other than that, I don't really have anything good to say.
Jared: I like the fun, flirty side to this. I like your setting and your hair. Your face is a bit off but that's what makes it fun. I want more from you though. More body would have worked much better for me.
Jensen: I concur with the other judges this is nice but not great
Yoona
Allison: The setting is strong, you did well on that part. I think if you had cropped some of the space to the left it would have been easier to find you, because I don't immediately land on you when I look at this photo. I like the pose, but I think your face could have a bit more oomph to it. Not bad overall, though!
Twiggy: I love this! Great job Yoona. You hit the theme strongly and I love how natural and easy going you look in this photo. Stunning!
Jared: I wish you would have cropped off a bit of that open space but otherwise, this is really good. I really like it. You look beautiful and your setting is beautiful. Good job.
Jensen: I like this the setting is amazing. The pose could be stronger
Eliminations up soon, good luck!
