ASSIGNMENT 10: PIRATE

Sorry for the delay! It's been so beautiful here that we couldn't pass up the days outside!!

Anyway, while we wait for scores from A9, I am giving you the FINALE!! Create a headshot of your model as a PIRATE!!

Requirements:
ONE photo
High Fashion
Waist Up Shot
Pirate

EXAMPLE:
Photo by Beech

DEADLINE: JUNE 13TH



This competition runs with NO scoring rubric. It goes based off of a mathematical ranking system between the judges. So you will not see a scoring rubric, but rather comments from the judges and your final rank will be listed in a secret surprise slideshow!

How Do Eliminations Work?
Good question! There is a bottom 3 every round (beginning with round 2) and ANY of the three contestants can be eliminated. They are listed in no particular order and the eliminated model is announced at the end of the slideshow - so watch till the end!

Judges Will Talk to Your Models, NOT YOU!
Yep, when we give comments, we give them as if your model were a living person standing right in front of us! All comments made will be directed at your model. You, as his/her creator, will be considered your model's "team". So if we discuss lighting or makeup, you will see things like "set designer" and "makeup artist"!

FIRST, SOME WORDS FROM BEECH:

Awesome job on the finale and throughout the competition ladies. You are both seriously talented and so unique in your styles. It made judging difficult, but fun!!

I appreciate my judge - Taylor - for being so amazing with her scores and on top of things! I know I was MIA a lot this cycle, and I apologize to everyone for that!

Thank you all for such a fabulous cycle of Face Off!

Sign ups are now open!

Nataria

Definitely will be lurking this one. not sure if i will enter.

heather1306

I might enter this, I've been lurking around waiting for a new comp that fit me and this certainly fits.

datscoolest

Hi does anyone remember me? I might join this and get back into the swing of things but it's unlikely.

JoeJoe11

Hiya dats! beech I so want to do this but I know I'd probably have to drop so not worth signing up! I loveeee face off though.

BeechNutBaby

Thanks everyone. This isn't looking good though. no takers = no competition sadly

Nataria

If i was more talented i would have definitely joined

spackichan

DAAAAATS!

I've been just lurking round the forums, if I wasn't on a lil break I'd have joined, I've never competed in face off before

xcheekyangelx

I'd like to join but (sorry for the stupid question) would sims 4 be okay to compete with as I no longer have sims 3

MizoreYukii

Oh, I came here to see if sign-ups were still open and if I could join, but it seems like no one is biting.

The forums are very quiet since people are on break from modeling, worried about doing comps and juggling next semester of school (like me xD), and this is also holiday time. I say give it until after the holidays Beech. I'm definitely interested in signing up though! No specific theme for this cycle though? (Kinda wanted another dark theme xD)
Sims 4 people might be interested since they've never done a headshot comp before, so some might find it easier. Should try tagging them later.

@Nataria You can't improve if you don't challenge yourself (or practice in general). I and many others are only at the levels we are at because we join comps regardless of our level and experience. I joined Mythos , which is a heavy editing comp, against a group of experienced and advanced editors and wound up winning the competition. Not only was that unexpected, but I improved tremendously from when I first started, all because I challenged myself to be better. The same thing happened to @LeslieM25. She had no experience in editing but won Candy Queen because she challenged herself and wanted to learn.

Trust me, the only way you will get better is by challenging yourself with comps (or by editing a lot during your free time). The judges give feedback that is really helpful and you learn new tricks and think of new ideas while doing all of that editing. You would not believe how much knowledge you can gain from messing with your edit, trying to get it just right.

If you need editing help (or in general need modeling information), please refer to my signature links. I have editing guides up for beginners and a modeling guide that explains the basics. Everything needs to be updated though. xD Should be getting to that soon.

Beginner's Editing)

@datscoolest Welcome back! Hope to see you modeling again.

LeslieM25

I would love to join this! It sounds like so much fun! I don't know how I didn't see it. Thanks for tagging me @MizoreYukii

BeechNutBaby

I am keeping sign ups open, don't worry

Vanadis

I think I wanna join. This may be the one I go out on. But I think Aceydoodle needs to come back cause I love his face xD

LilacErin

Uuuuuuggggghhhhh I promised I wouldn't enter a new competition but this looks too good to resist...............reserve me and i'll see if I can fit it in.

_aa13ls10_

I would love to enter this but I have mocks soon so I won't have time. I'll defiantly lurk though. Your competitions are always so good Beech.

JoeJoe11

I sooooooooooooooo want to do this. Especially with so many people departing, feels like it could be one of your last competitions for a while beech.
