No. I like the body suit on you and it looks great- very sexy. I do like the colorful background. But the stance/posing is just there and it looks like your skin tones are different hues. And expression is very blank.

No. The image is quite small so it's hard to make out the details, but I like the red hair that you have and your hazel golden eyes. The dress looks nice but your posing is not that flattering and it looks like you have no neck. Also your expression is really blank. I do kind of like the background and composition though.

No. I usually like mask images but this one not so much. I think it may look better in color and I dislike that the model's figure is so blurry, as well as the crop.

That is fine and kudos to you if that works for you but this particular thread is about whether I would work with you based on your avatar, so I don't really go into detail about your port as a whole. There are other folks here that offer that type of critique.

That being said, I actually like your new avatar. Nice color scheme, good lighting, lovely dress on you and can really see the story and emotion from you. So this time yes.

I would work with you. It's a very gritty and real image- Not really my style but you have a great look. I love your hair-- even messy it looks good! Nice features, makeup is done well and the expression is real, filled with emotion. Plus that dress looks very good on you. And love the choker. Your legs are kind of at a weird angle but that's overall pose still looks decent. Also, the color scheme and lighting matches the mood.

Nice:

Yes. Love the colors, composition and model looks great! I like the whole premise - field of sunflowers with a glowing sunsetty type theme and great big dark blue sky. Model is posed well, and lovely styling. The expression is a bit weak though.

By the way, your Members Only nude work is very good...

Also nice:

Yes. I like the black/white tones in the image and you have a nice clean look. And you're good looking. I love your outfit especially the white shirt and light jacket. Sunglasses look good on you and pose is natural. Background is interesting.

No. The image is not all that smooth and the model's posing could be better - especially placement of arm. The jeans look good on her but overall styling, including makeup and hair is not great and the expression is quite blank. Background is nice though!

Maybe:

Changed my avi to a more friendly photo, without my body on it. It's an experiment.. What do you think, does it attract more?

Thanks!

No. The colors are a little dark, I don't love the white tee, crop is not very good, and lighting/styling could be better. Expression is not great.

No. The image is too dark for my liking- Dark background and black clothing is not a good combination, as they blend in together. The model looks okay, and her hair is nice but I think the crop is too close at the top. Model's expression though is decent - There is definite connection with camera there.

Yes. I like the softness of the image and the pink color scheme (the pink feathers are a nice touch). Also the makeup looks really nice on you as does the jewelry and your hair is lovely. Your expression looks a bit weak/bored though.

No. It looks like a snapshot and while the pose of your body looks okay, your arms are awkward. The lighting is decent on you though and the pink headband in your hair is cute. But looks like you have no neck and would like to see your face more. Background is nice though- Love the water in the shot.

Yes. Nice color scheme and love the lacy white lingerie on the llama, as well as the pale blue/lilac flowers in her hair-- and hair is beautifully styled. Makeup could be better. Posing is okay but expression looks out of place- shocked, not comfortable.

Yes. You have a nice look and I like your pose. The outfit looks good on you -I just would like to see more of your torso area that your arms are blocking. Your makeup and hair looks good and I love the large pink flower in your hair. However, your expression looks quite bored.

Yes. Love the lighting, colors and location/background. I like the way your hair is curled a bit and framed around your face as well as your facial features. Top is cute but your expression and pose need work. You look not sure of yourself. Also the crop at the top and bottom- cutting off part of your head and your hands/legs like that is not good.. But that's not your fault.

Yes. Nice black and white tones and there's a certain je nais sequoi style about it that I like.. Lovely framing of hair around the model's face, great clarity in capturing the detail of the model's features, including freckles. Expression is just okay though and I don't really like the blurring toward the bottom of the image.

No. A bit tough to make out the details of the image and it's quite dark. While I like the blue purple tones, the hair is all over the place and doesn't look good with the skin color of the model. Plus the expression is really blank and can't really see the face well.

Thanks!

I would absolutely work with you - Love your look. You're very handsome - I really like the style of your blond hair, your lovely blue eyes and the blue shirt you have on. However, your expression is a bit brooding and the right side of the image is too blurred.

To answer your question on whether your new avatar attracts more, I would say no. Especially since you're looking to be a fitness model, showing off your figure is #1.

Love these:

This image is not really my style, but does show off your photographic skills pretty well so yes. Great capture of the model - the hair, makeup, shirt go well with the rest of the image and the expression is good- emotive. Nice capture of the window as well and good composition.
