Your write up really helps understand this shot and is well thought out. Your facial expression and lack of background ruins the effect though.

KatieBellaTrix - 36
Another example of how a write up can help with understanding thought. Facial expression in this is great, though not my cup of tea with style choice. It all goes well with idea in write up though which has helped your points.

violetriddle - 40
Now this is something I like. The in-your-face wrath works well though background takes off some feeling with this. Facial expression and hair style thought out well.

Herbaceoustraitorous - 45
Now this is one I like. Background suitable for magazine purposes and works well with the whole feel of the photo. In this case, pose works well and wrath can be felt coming off of the model in many ways. Footwear perhaps not 100% right but works well.

skyla0305 - 37
Another background error here which is unfortunate as I do like the way your model portrays this category. It is a slight mix with perhaps lust, though, but a nice try.

Elana - 35
Great style choice in costume here, though is let down slightly by facial expression. A bit too cute an expression for this category. Background, although plain, works quite well in this instance.

Ziggy - 22
Yes, black does work well in this category, though unfortunately not much else does. The clothes would have worked well if proper background, expression and pose had been chosen.

Belldandy - 23
This is really the same comments as I gave Ziggy's model. Slightly better expression, but unfortunately not much else gives the right feeling for this category.

SlytherinPride7 - 22
Where is the background? Those horns give a humourous effect. Expression works, though style is not my choice.

Ellemanae - 50
Now here I see a bit of Tomb Raider! I like this one very much and it is possibly the best in this category so far. Pose and expression is great, and although I dont usually like anything obscuring the face of the model as this can tell a lot, in this case, the dark shades work really well. Background and props finish this shot off greatly. Well done.

kathrineee_anne - 47
Now a lot of the time pets cause a humourous effect but nothing else, yet in this case the dog does this but also adds to the effect. This is another one which I like. Pose is perhaps not right which is a shame as the facial expression is bang on. Clothes are a good choice, though hair style perhaps needs work.

Rigby Dumbledore - 40
Background again is a complete let down as your model has worked well here. Although not my cup of tea with style, it works well, and expression and hairstyle finishes it off nicely. Pose is becoming very usual for this model, though, and pehas needs more thought.

streams of silver - 38
It is such a shame that this is the third photoshot like this I have seen in this round, though you have spruced the expression up well for this category. Again, background takes away a lot of goodness your model portrays.

Gemma_Cullen-Malfoy - 49
Another great shot here and minimal background actually works well here, which is unusual for me to say. I love the whole shot of this photo from costume to expression and pose. It all works really well, although expression could have been slightly better.

I've seen St. Trinian's so I can understand the angry schoolgirl idea! The pose seems to suggest an odd dance rather than agression, and the background is too plain.

KatieBellaTrix: 32
This looks more like an old lady outfit than one that fits a wrathful model! The facial expression is great, however, and your write-up helped me understand the backdrop choice.

violetriddle: 39
This definitely seems to represent wrath, but it's a little too "costumey" for my tastes. Plus, can you say OTT? I'd prefer a little subtlety - you're hitting us over the head with the theme here.

Herbaceoustraitorous: 40
The colours - or lack of them, and your facial expression are great for this category. I can't understand this obsession with baker boy hats though - I very much dislike them.

skyla0305: 35
I like the outfit - a simple, sleek LBD, can't go wrong. However, how is it supposed to represent wrath? You look slightly pouty, sure, but a write-up may have helped here.

Elana: 39
As with Violet, this represents the category well, but it lacks subtlety. It's trying to hard. Your background should be a little less plain.

Ziggy: 30
I don't really see how a sports top and miniskirt are meant to represent wrath. Your write-up helps a little with the understanding of this, but the whole outfit doesn't really work for me. The background is too plain.

Belldandy: 30
She doesn't look very angry. Her clothes are black, but what is wrathful about that? I do like the change of hairstyle - fiery red always indicates a hidden temper!

SlytherinPride7: 35
She looks stylish, and her pose screams agression. Her facial expression doesn't really represent the category, but the cheeky devils horns are a nice touch. The background is too plain.

Ellemanae: 45
Very nice! Everything about this outfit - from the colour, the pose, the choice of fabrics and hairstyle just shout anger. The backdrop fits the theme perfectly - good job!

kathrineee_anne: 43
Lovely! The outfit and pose definitely represent wrath, but the dashes of red stop it from being completely block coloured. Even your dog looks angry!

Rigby Dumbledore: 33
She looks angry enough, but more 'lady of the night' than wrathful model. The background needs something - as it is, it's too plain.

streams of silver: 35
She looks like an evil henchwoman for sure! I'm not sure the golden dog helps her wrathful case, however. Facial expression is perfect, but the backdrop is a little too plain.

Gemma_Cullen-Malfoy: 42
Hmm, very gothic. I like. She certainly looks mean, and the red eyes definitely help with this. Good choice of background in terms of colour, but it's still a little plain.

My Own Wrath (aka my own Marking)

polly - 5
Oh dear does your model have some medical condition? Seriously I fear for her life. Not even my toes feel the slightest wrath here. Points for... for showing up.

KatieBellaTrix - 10
Now you bring me a model with eye problems? It looks like she's squint-eyed. I just want to slap her. Points for... for the blushed cheeks.

violetriddle - 35
Facial! Where's the facial!!???? You're ruining the awesome costume with that face of look-Im-dumb-I-harm no one!

Herbaceoustraitorous - 20
Hmm... hmmm this one is intriguing I can see leftovers of wrath here... hmm... hmmm... I'll give you some cookie points.

skyla0305 - 15
Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Seriously! Such a gorgeous wonderful dress wasted in a wrong category! I can't give that dress any lower than 15 though I should!

Elana - 36
Okay. This is annoying me. You people need to teach some facial expressions to your models. They're ruinning your creations! The dress is perfect for wrath so you get a free pass now. Oh points for 'giving us the finger'. Take wrath in that.

Ziggy - 11
What is your model smiling at??? The only good thing about it is the black cuz the rest I won't comment.

Belldany - 12
A wrath wannabe... Thank the hair color for such a high mark or you'd be wishing you hadn't done this category.

SlytherinPRide7 - 17
I think I'll have to slap people to remind them their faces can actually move. Points for the little horns.

Ellemanae - 40
Oh dear. Somehow I wouldn't want to cross this woman's path at night. Great job here. The glasses I think are genius as eyes too many times give away a person good soul.Well done.

kathrineee_anne - 40
Great facial! You should teach something to the other models. The dog is nice touch too. The black fits and you get away with those clothes. Nicely done.

Rigby Dumbledore - 10
Hmm I think wrath was taken on the model and resulted in purpple eyes... I'll stop here...

streams of silver - 36
Somehow this is how I picture a classy, sophisticated in the verge of releasing her wrath woman. Though wrath isn't completely showing up yet.I took points for that ugly breed of dog.

Gemma-Cullen_Malfoy - 37
Quite an outfit to release wrath. Well picked. Smart choice but far from brilliant.
