Samhain – CopyCat Round 4

We all have our favorite holiday, for me it’s always been Samhain (pronounced Sao-wen).
In Celtic tradition, Samhain begins the evening of October 31 and ends with the end of November 1. In many cultures, children dress up as ghosties and goblins to trick the fae folk into thinking they are not a human child but instead a fae. They then go around to houses and in turn, pretending to be a fae asking for a treat or threatening tricks and mischief on their homes.

Sounding familiar? That’s because Samhain is the old name for…

Halloween

This week I gave the models a list of classic Halloween movies to choose from to create their copy cat image.

The allowable movies included:

Hocus Pocus
Halloweentown
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Friday the 13th
IT
Leprechaun
Child’s Play
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Halloween Nightmare Before Christmas

Here are this week’s photos and poll! Vote your favorite Spooky model!

Ardyn – Friday the 13th
Chibi – I Put a Spell on You
Damien – Oh, there’s an empty place in my bones, that calls out for something unknown
Malkovich – My Family’s always been in Meat
Yurimi – Earlier last week
Netizyn – Sarah Sanderson, Hocus Pocs

As always, Voting ends Tuesday at 12am! We will see who knew their lines best, and can walk away with best supporting image!

And as always, Love from here,
Ona.

Round 3 CopyCat Winner!

Well wouldn’t you know it! Another round has completed!

This past week we told Alejandro to not call our names, it was a Bad Romance and we all know it. We wandered through the American Horror woods after finishing the halftime show and taking in all the Applause. It was a busy week being Gaga!

Honestly, I did not know how the judges were going to choose this week! They were all so good! Which is why I leave the judging to them and spend a full day getting ready for my favorite holiday, Samhain.

But we still needed to have a winner this week! Someone to hold the round trophy and call themselves a Gaga Imposter!

Our Winner this week is…

DAMIEN MONTCLAIR!

Damien, the judges thought your shot was Simple yet stark and contrasting and commanding!
It deserved all of the applause!

I think I really wish I would have went to her concert when it was in town…

Come back next week for a new theme, and new photos to vote for!

As always, Love from here. – Ona

CopyCat Cycle Week 2 Results

When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen’s lost her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head

Sorry these results are late my homies… had an error on a submission of the judge’s vote (not their fault obviously) and then I had to do work for money to pay bills so I can have electricity to type up these posts!!!

So this past week, I asked our models to copycat Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. All characters, series, movies, etc. was fair game. We had several Alices, a white rabbit, and a caterpillar. But one unique character took the proverbial biscuits and tea and that was…

Malkovich!

Come back again next week to see what the Paparazzi are up to!

Alice

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small.

That’s me at the bottom of the stairs yelling at the Cheshire Cat…

We had such an amazing week last week with our Lord of the Rings Images that I thought I would send the models down a Simpler path. The problem is, however, how to recreate an image from Alice in Wonderland when there are actually 19 known film adaptations of the Lewis Carrol Novel. That’s only the film adaptations. There are multiple video games and definitely a few songs from the 70s that discussed the, ahem, “Magic Foods”.

Story time, my irl name is Alison (OH MY GOD ITS NOT ONA?!??) and as a little girl I honestly thought it was Alison Wonderland instead of Alice in Wonderland. I was deathly afraid of the jabberwocky….

Let’s stop talking about me and move onto our model’s and their photos!!! Here are your images for this week “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland”.

It’s Only a Dream – Elessia
WHO R U? – Ardyn
And if You go Chasing Rabbits – Damien
Woman yelling at cat Knave.meme – Malkovich
Cheshire Cat – Netizyn
Down the Rabbit Hole – Yurimi
We’re All Mad Here – Chibi


Voting will be up until 12:01 EST next Tuesday 10/18. Winner will be announced at 8am! So vote for your favorite while you can!

CopyCat Round 1 Winner!

Well I could not have asked for a better week 1! Our models did not disappoint me or the judges for that matter, with their amazing copycat shots! I cant deny that when I first pitched this idea to Kat and Kai, I thought for certain they would turn it down. Then I thought the models would hate me and be so frustrated recreating images instead of taking their own. Then I thought people would not join the cycle. But here we are with these gorgeous images, literally all of them are really good at being really good at taking amazing shots! I love them all forever!!!!

And while all of this is all well and good….

We do have a winner to announce…

So without further adieu… Our week one winner is!!!!

Ardyn – Strider

“a strange-looking weather-beaten man, sitting in the shadows near the wall… He had a tall tankard in front of him, and was smoking a long-stemmed pipe curiously carved. His legs were stretched out before him,showing high boots of supple leather that fitted him well, but had seen much wear and were now caked with mud. A travel-stained cloak of heavy dark-green was drawn close about him, and in spite of the heat of the room he wore a hood that overshadowed his face”.

A strong image for a strong first week of submissions!
What does week two hold?
Come back on Saturday for the next round and new images to vote for!
