white balance is at 5200K, deending on skin colour sam tans turn out a bit yellow, but all in all fluro light is nice

That's quite an interesting lighting setup you have there Wendell.

I've never seen catchlight in the eyes like that, unreal.

Sublime Wendell, sublime...

You have done it again Mr Teodoro Absolutely gorgeous portraits achieved with style! The shape of the catchlights in the eyes really adds another dimension to the feel of the images.
cheers

The first and third are haunting with those V eyes. They look aliens and they successfully catch our attention, which to me means they are excellent. The second has me confused because what is prominent is the bag being so sharp, so I guess it works for promoting that particular brand or bag design. The forth one follows the same line and I see it advertising the sunglasses. However, I would suggest you get rid off the distracting lady on the background; unless there is a compelling reason to have her there. And that's all from this armchair critic, who despite the comments above thinks they are all stylish and very good pictures.

I really like this effect, clever use of something which is readily available - well done Sir.

Very interesting Wendell. I also like the shape of the two tubes as a catch light.
Maybe try a few different tube set ups for this.
I like the light quality.

Very nice work Wendell!

Any chance you could explain the light rig some more Wendell, I've come back to look at these several times over

hi
thankyou for the feedback
it's much appreciated

i'm really sorry but i can't explain this rig till my US patent on the invention goes through
i've been working on it for months

once the product is manufactured and sold i can tell you all about it

but for those who cant wait you just need to study the image there are more than enough clues as to the arrangement of the lights

if you need more clues you can study these examples

Great results. Seems to be a big V of light in the reflections. Itnteresting concept Wendell

Wow.. what can i say exept truely amazing..

None of these models are any good, Wendell.
Models are supposed to look like they're stoned or disinterested.
What's this smiling caper?!?!

Your first pic of Sam is truly captivating. This will be her prime portfolio picture. No wonder it got you POTW.
