Mandy Returns




New Sets by Mandy

These are the first new sets of Mandy since July of 2007. Previous sets were photographed at 12 megapixels or lower with our old lighting. These new sets were shot at 21MP with a variety of new lighting techniques to produce even higher quality images. More sets will be added to the Poses page as we finish editing them.

New Model Ginger




New Model Ginger

Ginger was photographed with a variety of light sources. We used low, medium, and high contrast from a variety of directions. The high contrast light was a spot light overhead to the right. Medium contrast light came from a wider spotlight at shoulder height to the right. Low contrast light came from a softbox about 60 degrees to the left and slightly elevated. You'll notice how the shadows and the catch light in the eyes tell the story of the light source. Poses page.

Luana Asian Model




New Model Luana adds Asian (Cambodian) ethnicity.

Luana is a local model who adds some welcome diversity to the Art Models project. We photographed all her poses in a high contrast light which produces rich shadows. A little bit of floor-level fill light was added to keep the figure as evenly lit as possible as we rotated Luana through a full 360-degree rotation. Many of the lower poses have several overhead views. Be sure to click the "Show All Angles" link above the Zoom Viewer to see all the included views. Her work can be found in the Pose Tool.

Exceptions are 208, 210, 310 and 407, which show close-up details or partial rotations. We hope it will be a useful reference if you need a figure in the process of putting on clothing.
