⭐️ SEASON PREMIERE ⭐️ https://www.kovaze.com/group_thread/160 #DNTM3

#DNTM3 W/ Special Guests Bim & Ralts023 (Pre-Premiere Episode) Welcome to Panel Before Dark, where special guests and I put contestants’ portfolios under the spotlight. Before we begin, a special Q&A with the very own host & CEO of DNTM- Dimitra == Q: Miss Dimitra, congratulations on another season! After the success of season two, tell us what the viewers can expect from the upcoming season? Dimitra: I’m really happy that we are now on Season 3. We won’t have any major changes to the format apart from a few small adjustments. For example, sometimes we will reward the best photo with a special reward. The episode upload times will also change a little, but it’s not a huge difference. One thing I’m sure people should expect, though, is a lot of drama haha. This cast has very strong personalities. Q: What are you looking for in a DNTM Winner? Dimitra: The answer is the same for every season. We want to see a model grow throughout the competition, deliver strong photos, and have personality. ============================ - The time has come for the reviews. (Disclaimer: We are not official judges. Please don’t take our critiques personally, our goal is to offer helpful feedback, constructive criticism, and tips that can support your growth <3) Photo Theme: Casting Photos RobbieRiot Dusa: Okay so personally I think this photo is clean and finessed. I can tell she’ll do great in the competition, but the question is if she can be consistent throughout the competition. Personally, from this photo alone, I can tell she'll be alright for awhile The outfit is nice, simple but still distinguishable from the others. The pose is dope. bim: She's got the poise and the flair to make it far in this competition ! I like how clean the lines are, I'm expecting big things ! Ralts: Robbie is one of the few that gave me something else more than just standing in front of what Dimitra asked for. I see the potential. Muribolt Dusa: Ok Muribolt for me personally, her picture needs a bit more polishing. The dress is a bit too tacky for my taste. If she’s able to clean up those tiny details, she could come out unscathed for awhile in the competition. bim: This picture is a little lackluster for me. I find the stance to be a bit basic, and her arms just look so short here. The face card IS there though, hoping she works on those angles. Ralts: Kind of messy. The leg is kind of weirdly positioned, makes the pose lazy and unintentional. The dress is not very well put together and I cannot see half of the face, I WANT TO SEE FACES. It's not giving me life. Goomybear Dusa: Goomybear has a bit more experience than the other models. He played along as a viewer, watched the previous seasons closely, gave reviews and generated photos of his own. So my expectations for him will naturally be higher than the rest. The photo is great and I love the tattoos. The outfit is interesting in a good way. My only worry for him in the future is if he'll only give us sex appeal. bim: For our first season with male models, I'm really expecting a little more. This being only my first taste, I'm worried if there will be a second course ! Remember, were trying to be the next TOP MODEL, not just flexing for an Instagram feed. Obsessed with his hair though ! Ralts: My boy Goomybear, he's the pioneer of men being in DNTM, he's been waiting for three seasons to apply and I know he wants it and has what it takes to do good but I also know he loves relying on that body and not following the exact prompts Dimitra gives, I hope now that he's a contestant he doesn't dismiss them. For this photo I love the pant, it makes him look veery tall and model-esque. I wish the too was more high fashion and less body. sexytex Dusa: I’ve said this previously before, but I loooove that she’s representing for the curvy girls. I’m eager to see what sexytex will bring to the competition. Definitely one of the front runners from the first impressions bim:I think this is a great representation of simple but fierce. Her face is giving full glam and staring at me through the camera ! Im hoping she has the versatility to give us some really stunning shots ! Ralts: Loooove a big girl, I wanted one last season so bad and we finally get it. Proportions are amazing, she looks correct. Her arms look veery short tho, they look like baby arms. Wish I could see the full shoe but it's just an entrance. Excited for her for suure. sam Dusa: I think this photo is just okay. The outfit isn’t really giving it to me, it’s a bit of a mess. He can’t expect to rely on his looks because that would just be lacklustre. He needs to give us something to stand out from the crowd for the actual photoshoot. bim: There's something about this giving very early 80s tea. This photo screams confidence to me in the pose. I will say he's giving very short king vibes and he may need to push a bit more to keep up with some of the others ! Ralts: This is giving Eurovision in not a very flattering way. I think male models are going to have a hard time going for high fashion and not look costumy like met gala shit. It's correct, nothing exciting but nothing specially wrong with it either. Safe entrance. Boys please wear shirts. Dailyicon Dusa: To me this looks more like a reality tv show contestant for big brother UK. He needs to do more model-like poses next time, don’t give us the same generic hand in pocket pose (and this goes out to all the men and women in the competition who are guilty of the same identical pose). The face card is there just simple touch ups would’ve gone a long way. He needs to be careful with distracting backgrounds taking over the photo. This game isn’t just about being a model. They are the engineer and photographers as well. bim: This is a cute picture but I'm just not getting MODEL from it. Im really hoping for big things from daily, but I'm still waiting for the icon to hit ! Ralts: I like that it has more than one color neon and they do something interesting for the background. The rest kind of messy. His eyes not looking at the camera with no expression gives dead in the face. The hand in the face looks uncomfortable. It seems like it's this person's first day in a photoshoot. The outfit is very basic. Remember when I said put shirts on? I might go back on my word cause this is a very boring outfit. Camell22 Dusa: I like his look, but other than that nothing else stands out. An acceptable photo with nothing to say. He needs find his brand next photoshoot or else he will fade in the background real quick. bim: I really enjoy this model. I the hair and skin tone are just so complimentary. But I fear being beautiful is not gonna be enough. Im craving MORE Ralts: Literally two string of neon lights. Hopefully in the full pic Dimitra has there's more cause... The pose leaning is fun. How he looks at the camera is nice. I don't remember liking this when I first saw the cast reveal but now I do kinda like it a big more. The outfit needs some high fashion not just a suit but it's a nice suit at least. bosslady Dusa: I love her look, she’s stunning! She needs to be careful with her facial expression and avoid looking too sleepy or she could come across boring. I do wish we could have seen more of her body, angles are everything! bim: now THIS is a great introduction to the world. Face Hair Body Tea. This is someone who knows how to make everything come together in just a chef's kiss. Im keeping a CLOSE eye on her ! Ralts: Oh! Why don't I remember seeing this photo in the reveal? It's kinda good. It's has the flowiness that Dimitra loves, the facial expression is like you hate me and I kinda love it, her skin is glossy and glowing. Kinda love, but careful with too much fabric, a lot is lost cause of it. Tayvie Dusa: I appreciate him going for more of a pedestrian model. However, since the others are using extremely handsome and gorgeous AI models, he needs to lean into stronger poses and the outfits need to be A1 to combat against the supermodels and stand out. bim: This one hurts to see. I just do not really like anything about this one. The pose is super unnatural and the whole thing feels a tad sloppy. I think they have a huge potential to be an underdog story if they can give more editorial and less tinder pic. Ralts: I can't wait for what makeover you get. This is BB28 cast photo down. There's no fashion, no intention in the pose, showing off some basic sneakers. Just a jolly guy. I'm going to need a lot more to stan. Lewis Dusa: I’ve said this before - he needs to be careful and avoid looking like a drag race contestant rather than a model in a modelling competition. He can still be a drag queen who models, lean-into high fashion, camp or editorial, but find the balance. I love a gag contestant as the next person and I’m sure he’ll find his rhythm in the competition once he gets his footing. Dusa: okay a quirky queen ! I love to see it. The pose is a tad stiff, and the face feels super disconnected from the camera. All the potential is there, I think the skills just need to be fine tuned and they'll be a huge threat Ralts: Momma this is a mess lol sorry but I hate it. The neon lights are so childish. The pose doesn't fit the aesthetic that the background is giving, it's feeling disconnected. The sort of tennis dress is a complete mess, it doesn't match the alien/futuristic vibe you're going with the eyes. And I saw somewhere someone say this is more drag race than supermodel and 100%. Maybe you were going for some camp reference that I'm not getting but I think I don't want to get it. Hare Dusa: There were a lot of girls from season 1 and 2 who just relied on being pretty. So far this season hasn’t been an exception. Yes, your model looks delicious, but I do not see a model. This looks more like a love island contestant. Find the balance between your sex appeal and modelling. Props for being the hottest male contestant this season though ! bim: This picture is pretty nice, a bit simple. He definitely looks like he could be in a catalog for some gym equipment. I wonder if he can pull off a more high fashion environment Ralts: He can eat my cookies any day of the week. But apart from that, it's a little bit of the same we've seen from guys. Hands in pocket, no shirt, etc etc copy paste and repeat. The angle could've been better so we can see your eyes having some expression. Tisha Dusa: This should not have worked as well as it should have. I’m shockingly impressed. The strongest pose for the girls by a long shot. I can tell Tisha's going to be tough competition for the other contestants, but I’m worried that being a skeleton will make her look the same every episode and could hinder her from having fresh new looks. Although, if she’s as strong as she is in that photo, that might not end up being a problem for her bim: OHHHHH I saw the leaks before the cast and I've been WAITING for this one. I think this is an amazing picture honestly. The stance is just filled with power and she looks RICH. Although a gimmick could be tough to get past, I think she has HUGE potential to prove all the doubters wrong. Ralts: When I got the snaked peek there was a skeleton model who else could it be? The pose is stunning and the face expression has some intensity. I would have liked a more elevated dress but apart from that it's a nice start. I think that being a skeleton is going to give you a lot of uniqueness, use that to your advantage like Sprite did, I'm expecting originality from something this unique. Torimarie Dusa: I think the pose and the outfit are both plain. I can see the Versace reference, but the fabric looks too much like paper? We do not want to see her make the same mistake next week. She needs to find a way to stand out without relying on your blue skin. bim: This one is cute, outfit aside. Hand placements can make or break a photo like this, and I think she knows how her body moves ! Will being blue give her an edge or will it hinder her in more commercial campaigns. Ralts: Now this is what I'm most excited about. How tf is Tori going to make this work? I'd love to know. Can't wait for her makeover to be blue hair as well. The hair texture with skin texture doesn't really go well together, she need to find a way to balance it out cause even tho it's not realistic it still needs to look cohesive. The pose is fine, nothing out of this world, if the shoulders would be straighter to camera it would be more of a serve. Honey Dusa: I love this photo of her. The outfit is probably my favourite out of all the girls. The fashion sense is there, the pose is there, a bit more polishing with the proportions and she’ll be the one to look out for. bim: Oh this picture is gorgeous. Most girls went way too basic with their fashion, and she proved not only to have the looks but she knows how to show them off. She has a unique edge that I think could really stand out amongst the crowd ! Ralts: Love love love. But girls, be careful with almost showing the coochie area cause it goes from modern to hooker real quick. If it wasnt for that gorgeous hat and the drapeing it would look very cheap. Give more facial expression. Everybody should go look at Jane's pic for that and Fiji's for posing, I think they are very clear examples in those categories. Poof Dusa: Another middle of the pack photo for me. Doesn’t say much about him. I like his look though, but again everyone looks good. i have no idea what to expect from him because the pose and the outfit don’t say much of him as a model. We’ve seen a lot of abs today and I’m hoping we see less of that next episode. bim: His face is really a stand out, but everything else is a bit of a bore to me. I need MORE I WANT MORE. But maybe wanting more poof is a good thing. . . Ralts: Guys. I swear you guys can put your hands somewhere else apart from your pockets. Let's make men pants with no pockets pleeeease. Another boring photo. Nothing wrong but nothing interesting at all. Glitter Dusa: I think she went a bit off the rails with the theme. I appreciate that she went for something different, but she turned a simple shoot into a completely different theme. Glitter needs to be careful because the judges deduct a ton of points for a simple mistake like that. I can see that posing will be her strong suit. The creativity is bursting out of her and I’m excited to see what she brings in the coming episodes. bim: this is definitely an amateur model, but not necessarily in a bad way. She really needs to learn how to extend her lines and really give her some LENGTH and I think it will go a long way. Her face definitely has a bit of a robotic feel, I wanna see some light in those eyes ! Ralts: And the hooker arrived. The grip is amazing, just one hand and she's not moving. I love the pose and intention, it creates a very interesting line. Your back leg should be in an even higher angle so the bent leg doesn't break the line since it's in front. Love the originality, love a hooker but remember it's a model game, let's keep it somehow classy. Thiii Dusa: I love that she’s interacting with her hair, simple but effective. That automatically helps her shine just a bit more from the other contestants. The outfit is her downfall, way too boring. And I wish she went for a stronger pose, because it’s a bit lacking in energy. I could see Thiii being a dark horse in the competition if she improves more. bim: Oh this photo is a serve ! I think it shows a lot of personality while still giving some fashion. Im going to MISS her signature pink when makeovers come. I have really high hopes for this girl I'm hoping my bias isn't showing omg Ralts: The posing is messy. I get the idea that you were going for but just grabbing a piece of hair is not a big statement and makes the photo messy. The eyes need to be wide open to give something if you're going for intense. You're body, hair and face are all telling different stories. Seong Dusa: Seong has a ton of experience with designing and that clearly shows with the blue neon light hugging and highlighting him head toe. And because of that detail, the photo pops out for me the most out of anyone else’s. The pose is a little weak for my taste coming from him. The arms are the problem, as well as the face being too plain. However, the outfit is couture darling! I love the skirt pant situation going on! I know seong will be just fine for a handful of weeks to come, but I also know he can do better than this. He’s the one to watch out for bim: honestly probably one of the strongest male models based off their initial photos ! Seong has the fashion sense to really makes some big moves in this competition. I think his really subtle choices here make a huge impact. AND not a hand in a pocket in site ! Ralts: Definitely not least. When I said Hare was the hottest let me correct myself cause mom I'm in love with a criminal. This is a very strong strat. The outfit EATS. My favorite male outfit fore sure and probably of all of them, the headpiece is 10/10. If you're going to be shirtless with is how you It boys, give it intention, balance it with a high fashion element on top (me) and bottom. The arm position could've been a bit better so it looks more intentional where it is positioned but apart from that no notes. One of the best. Excited to see what's to cum. Sorry, come * ------------------------------------------------- >> Final comments from our special guests << Ralts: After seeing this cast I'm kind of... Meh. This is definitely giving season 3 for sure. Season 1 being a mess cause nobody knows exactly what they're doing. Season 2 come strong knowing all the tricks and then Season 3 comes to lower the bar a little bit. I think the diversity is off the roof at least, there's a ton of different types of models. From entrance I'm seeing a bright future in Robbie and Seong for sure and a lot in potential in different profiles like Trisha and SexyTex. Also Goomy but I just hope that he isn't burnt out for playing along 2 seasons and now having to play officially one. bim: I think based off first impressions, I'm really excited to see Seong, Honey, and Robbie ! I think they might have the conviction and the ability to push through the competition and make the finale ! Im really hoping the girls with the gimmicks are able showcase their skills, while keeping their uniqueness ! It's a really strong cast, but I want way more from the male models ! Bim's ranking 1.
