[Photo] Allan Amato workshop - Part 2 - Ulorin Vex

[karohemd]

I have to admit I've been a fan of Ulorin Vex for quite some time so I was excited when this opportunity came along. Her crazy orange hair is just as variable as her poses and the outfits she brought along were brilliant, too.

Here's a selection, there are a few more on flickr.

They're lovely.

On the second one I'm not sure where I'm supposed to be looking. My eye is drawn to her thumbnail. It might be because her eyes are shadowed.

Thank you!
*nods* It was meant to look a bit spooky with a high contrast between face/skin and hair.

Yeah. Ulorin is a hotty. Lovely work as well :)

I like the Spooky Ghosty one. Much as she's got a lovely figure I just don't dig the rubbery stuff. Although that last shot is nice, so it may be a colour thing.

Thanks!
I usually don't, either, but she and Nina Kate (who also designs it) wear it exceptionally well. Especially that orange/red outfit really popped.
The point of the exercise was to learn how best to do this kind of work so what the models were actually wearing wasn't that important.

Ah, fair does. I see it from a fashion perspective. Get totty, add clobber, add set, take the shot, see what it looks like.

That last outfit of Ulorin's is uniform-based. That's what worked for me. It also shows her contours well, which is working with the light :)

Ah, she's lovely. I wonder how she got her 'hawk up all matte and lovely like that.

It's one of her trade secrets, I guess. ;)
Her hair is extremely versatile, have a look around her website, crazy!

Wow - she's like a real live videogame character!
