 I have chosen Hermes as my deity. Hermes was known as the messenger of the Gods and was often called upon to travel quickly between realms. He is often portrayed with winged shoes to indicate his speed. Hermes is also known as the god of athleticism and sport. In most art depictions, Hermes is shown naked. I have chosen Tyson for this modern interpretation. His winged shoes are in this case are his running shoes. The sleek curvature of his body exudes power and speed and a natural athleticism. I know it is a risk from a fashion aspect as he is only wearing shoes. But damn if I don't want those shoes now. |

Not that I'd usually complain about naked men, but where's the fashion content. Granted, there is some visible in the shoes and watch, I'd like to see more. Your face seems a little tense. Your explanation and linking it to the god is impeccable. Perhaps the best of this round. I also think perhaps the selective black and white is taking away a bit from the picture, and in future, I'd suggest not do profiles with Tyson. It doesn't seem to be his best angle.

I am completely fine with nude shots as long as they are tasteful nudes, and this is a tasteful nude. When it comes to the fashion content on a nude shot, I tend to go with the overall styling of everything in the shot and how good and healthy the model's skin looks. I do this so that tasteful nudes aren't discouraged, since otherwise, they'll only be able to get a max of 15 points and in a modeling game, having the option to go an artistic route like this should not be discouraged. I agree with Janice that you probably have the best description this round. However, I disagree with her about disliking Tyson's profile. I think he has a better straight-forward look, but your profile still looks good to me. I'm having a hard time finding fault here.

Wow this is actually quite stunning. You look statue like, your story and purpose has been frozen in time. A very well thought out description I can see complete sense in the connection between you and your chosen god, a contemporary portrayal of Hermes as well with the inclusion of symbolic accessories. Your body looks wonderfully sculptured, I could actually see this photo becoming an advertisement for the accessories you are wearing.
