NO NUDES, NO TOPLESS... Implied is OK.

Sorry to all of you gorgeous and beautiful models.. but we have to be aware of everything that could possibly happen.

However... we may do another book of "Over 40" nudes down the road if there is enough interest.

OUCH!  There goes my shot of Shea I had been working on.  Back to work on an implied.  LOL

We also cannot go by those #'s Actually look at the profiles and see that some youngsters are trying to pass.  Thats why one must check Id's. 

Seriously I was looking to make a MM picture list of models over 45 and there is NO way some of the 99 year old models can LOOK that good.  We really should have truth in age listing here.  I just got 278 models listed as 60-99. And 182 from 80-99. Yeah RIGHT!

not 40, but im not 20 either..lol....

you dont look bad for 115 years old...

however we were referring to people posting wrong ages on their profiles and being left out when someone searches for model in a certain age range. Also.. Models with the MATURITY of their age over 40 dont exaggerate their ages...

Part of maturing is accepting who you are, what age you are, and what you look like.

As it happens, this is a thread for MATURE and sexy models OVER 40.. and honest about their ages.

Thank you for participating, Johnny Olsen has you door prize for you on the way to the exit door.

These are examples of what the pages will look like.

These are not finished and published.... just examples...


Front cover:

https://www.acgellert.com/project40/pj40cover1.jpg

Title page:

https://www.acgellert.com/project40/pj40title.jpg


sample of how the image pages will look:

https://www.acgellert.com/project40/pgexample.jpg

(this is for a page that will have only one image... text information will be approximately the same even on multiple image pages.)

Below each image will be the photographer's Name, and the one or two sentences about the image.

The models Name and MM# if available will lead off the text about the image. If the model is not a member of MM, it will just be her name as specified when images were submitted.

There will also be a page with the list of contributing Photographers.. with MM# if a member.

Andrew, any idea when you are going to be ready to head the book off to the great printing press in the sky?

Also two other things. First thanks for all of the work you two have done on this. It is a great idea and I am happy to be a part of it.

Secondly, if there is anything that I can do to help (writing or whatever) feel free to ask.)

Hey Tom..

Still waiting on some images from a couple of people. There are a few that either just got their electricity back on in Ohio or just getting back to their offices and homes in south Texas after Ike. So I told them I would wait...

So I am still adding some of the images to the book format.

I will post in here as soon as I upload it to the printers, and again when it is ready to view and purchase...

I appreciate your participation along with everyone else who has submitted to this project.

It looks good so far and probably around 100 pages of images.

According to blurb.com.. that means about $30.00 plus shipping for a single copy of the book. They have a 10% discount for orders of 10 or more...

Again, it wont be much longer, and I will post when it is ready.

Andrew
