Wow!  This is so beautiful!  Tabitha looks gorgeous, and I love the pose you went with; it’s so dramatic and expressive and she really is the center of attention.  That red starburst coming out from behind her really helps contribute to that effect!  I love the tigers as well; they’re a good balance between realistic and cartoon so they blend well.  The one thing I might say is that they are a bit bright, particularly the one on the left, and it makes them look ever so slightly out of place.  I love how you constructed your set, as well; it’s interesting, but not too busy.  The lights look really cool, too.  The only other thing I might add is that the whip looks a little flat compared to the rest of the picture; a little shading just around the edges would probably fix that.  But this is amazing, fantastic job!!

Oh isn't this adorable! Toni looks amazing, I love her whole outfit. She actually look like she belongs in the big tent. Not quite sure what her act is, but whatever it is I like it. The quality of her hand stretched out is a lot darker than the rest of her body. Other than that I loved your concept!

Wow Tay, I love this picture!  Toni looks really cute, and the way you’ve styled her is magnificent!  I really like the idea behind this, too, I can tell that she is playing the part of the magician.  The red cloth looks pretty good, there’s just one little bump on the left side that looks a bit unnatural, and the panda looks a bit too cartoonish compared to the rest of the picture and kind of stands out for me- as much as I love pandas, I don’t see the cohesion with the set.  I also would have loved to see Toni looking at the camera!  But your setting is wonderful and definitely reads circus for me, and I like the interest that the angle adds as well!  Great job!

I can't express to you how much I love this shot. You had a clear direction on what you wanted to create and came up with something marvelous. I'd come to see anyone that could shoot out of a cannon unharmed! Stella's look is really sharp, I love the All American feel. You stylized her just right and I love her overall look. There were part of the images that were a little blurry, but other than that you did a really good job!

I really love this shot!  Stella looks so cute, and I absolutely adore the idea that you were going with, with the cannon and the retro patriotic feel.  The colors are beautiful as well- though I might have edited some of the colors in the background to make them more cohesive with Stella’s bright outfit, or else muted the colors on her clothes instead.  There are some very fuzzy edges, and the quality is a little all over the place in all the different components, from the blurry cannon to the crystal clear banner, but I think you definitely had the right idea going into this.  Fantastic job!

I love how creative this shot is of your model. Those lions look super scary but I bet she can handle those cats. I love your model's look. The tights kind of come up short at her hips though. I love the styling especially those heels. Overall I thought you did a good job for this assignment!

This is a really nice picture, Maggie!  I absolutely adore the bodysuit you chose for Paige (where did you get it???) and she looks stunning, I love the pose too!  The only problem with Paige herself is the headpiece; because her hair is such a pale blond color, there’s not enough contrast there and it’s a bit distracting.  Her makeup looks great too.  What fell short for me was the setting.  I love the lion tamer idea, but the lions are too realistic and make Paige look out of place, and this doesn’t read “circus” for me.  It looks like an ordinary stage; I would have really liked to see a more interesting background.  The whip was a nice touch, though, and the shadows around the edges add an interesting dynamic to the picture.  Good job this round!

Love the picture. The lions look too real which makes her look pasted into the scene. I know there are some cc tigers and lions for the sims 3 and maybe those would have been a better option for this. Nice job.

First off I want to say I love that you totally thought outside of the box. No one else used a elephant! I love that it says circus on top of the photo. Also you stylized your model pretty well. Now there were a few things that were off about this shot of Haley. The bodysuit was perfect, but those "tights" don't look like tights at all. They look more like pants. Also even though the pose is nice, her elephants trunk is completely broken into her body. Haley is such a beautiful model, and I felt like this didn't compliment her very well. Overall I thought you did an okay job!

I have really mixed feelings about this shot.  I really love how creative you were, especially with the spotlight, but I don’t think it executed quite right.  Haley seems to be half inside the elephant, and the lighting is very flat outside of the spotlight; there should be a gradual change in the lighting instead of Haley being the only thing it reaches, and even in the darkness there should be some more shadows.  Haley’s outfit isn’t very cohesive, and I wish that the circus sign wasn’t so dark!  Your quality is excellent thought and I love the distressed look of the background, and Haley’s facial expression adds a lot of interest to the photo.  I want to know what she’s looking at!  Not my favorite from you, but still a good picture!

Love the spotlight, top hat and elephant! The editing around the arm is a bit messy. Not sure if those are accessory jeans or tights but it works.  I guess try to be more obvious with the styling requirements next time. Nice job.

Something about this photo makes me really like it. I think the pose is fun and makes me think of a acrobat kind of act. I love her outfit, but I can't tell if she is wearing a bodysuit. From what I can see the styling is right on point. I especially love her make up. You did a good job this round!

Another really creative shot from you!  I am totally loving your idea off the setting; it’s simple, but definitely not boring, and January really looks like she’s making an acrobatic entrance to the circus!  I really like her makeup as well, and the concept of the pose is definitely there, although because of it I can’t see her outfit, and her shoe is covering up one of her eyes!  Her feet are just way too far forward, and once I looked a little harder I understood but at first glance I wasn’t even sure what was going on with her body.  The colors of her clothes also aren’t cohesive with the setting.  But this is a really cool shot, once again, so keep up the good work!

I like the idea behind this but the shoe in her eye distracts me. The angle she is posed in takes away from the client seeing her outfit.  The lace and the ice blue are beautiful. The make up is great for the scene.  No boarder and if there is it needs to be more noticeable. I like the background  and use of the boho cushion! Nice job.

Ooo Wee! I really like this photo of Riley. I take it that she is a magician and I love the creativity of it. Her bodysuit is gorgeous, I've never seen anything like that before. I do wish she was wearing some sort of shoe. Also the quality at her feet are a little off. However I really love the setting and that pose rocks. One more thing you forgot the border, so I did have to deduct you a point. This was a really beautiful shot of your model and you did a good job!

This is a great shot, I love the color combination of the background! I wish that Riley’s outfit matched the idea of a circus a little bit more; she doesn’t look like she belongs in a circus to me, and I can’t tell if that’s actually a bodysuit…? You also forgot your black border! I do like her pose, she really looks like she’s presenting a show to the audience, but the flecks of greed around her legs especially are rather distracting for me. Make sure you cut her out all the way! I love how Riley is crisp and clear, and the shading on her body looks really good! Excellent job!

I like this shot, but I’m really not getting circus from it! Heather looks very much like a ballerina, and how can she do that in those heels??? Wow! I really love her tights and the bodysuit- they both look great, but I’m not sure what’s going on with the hair. It’s floating and covering her face! I think that there was definitely more that could be done with the set and with her posing to fit the requirements, but I really like the concept you have going here, and the quality looks great! I love that eyeliner on her, too, and she certainly looks very graceful and pretty. Good job!

Aww this is a super cute photo of Milan. I love the leotard and tutu skirt. Also the pose is nice and strong. I thought your first use of stock hair turned out really well. However the rest of the photo didn't turn out so great. The shadows were off to me and I would have preferred that Mr Lion was blended into the background. Also the photo is sooo dark, I would have like some brightness to the shot. You still did a good job, I just know you could have done better!

I like this shot, Pep, and I think your use of hair stocks worked really well! I’m not sure what’s going on with the tutu and the rest of the styling, though; her makeup looks good, but I’m not sure if a tutu classifies as a bodysuit, and even if it does the top is very plain. I would have liked to see a bit more sparkle that’s associated with a circus to give that circus feel! Some accessories would have helped, too. The lion is cute, but he is far too realistic for this kind of picture and doesn’t fit. He is the only thing that makes it seem circus-y. Also be careful cutting out! I can still see some white lines around Milan and the lion’s mane especially; that’s a lot of hard work when there’s so much fringe, so sometimes an eraser not on full opacity can help! You’re really improving your editing though, and I think you did a pretty good job this round!

Give yourself more time to create those beautiful shots that I'v seen you take and you'll be very happy and surprised with what you can do. I love the expressions on your model and that lion but the posing is lacking energy. Your models always rock the tough girl mojo-luv it!

Ohhh she is one of those acts! The psychic that people come to see from miles around! I thought your idea was super creative, I never would have thought of that. The styling from what I can tell looks nice. I'm not a fan of the tights they don't go with her overall outfit. Also the quality of the photo is sooo dark.

I really like the fortune teller idea that you were going for here! It looks really cool, and it really love that crystal ball with the purple in it. It’s really sharp and clear and for me is the focal point of the image…but we want to see more of Amelia! She looks really dark here, and I’m not a huge fan of her styling. The body suit is cool, but the tights don’t make any sense to me. She also doesn’t appear to be scaled quite right in comparison to the background, and the crystal ball makes the lack of quality in the rest of the picture stand out more- try and work on making everything sharp and clear! But this was definitely a step in the right direction, great job!

I love the direction you took with this photo. There is a mystical quality to it. I love her red hair and tattoo tights. She's beautiful, yet the table and the model look like they are pasted on top of the picture, there needs to be more depth created by re-sizing the model and objects according to each other and their surroundings along with lighting and shading. Every picture you create is important and part of a learning process. You are improving with each picture and it's about you being happy with what you creations.
