Oh, this is bad. Since I had received the PM for this a few days ago, (including the other parts to it) I went to scroll down to read Part 2. Lo and behold, I realize there is no Part 2 yet!  :P

With a new day, it is now light enough outside to take the swimsuit pictures! Kenshin is especially thrilled.


Vikram: If you don't mind, I need you to stand over there for the pictures.
Kenshin: *sigh* If I must, might as well get this over with.



At last, the swimsuit shots everyone's been waiting for! I know, I know, I posed them all perfectly to fit their characters.











Yeah, that's not going to work.
Kenshin: And here I thought the Fairy had magical powers.



And now, the individual shots.

Dominic is trying to become one with the environment:





Much better Dominic shot:



Everette stands all broody in the library.



But that was too boring, so I made him do more characteristic, dramatic, symbolic things.





And then just pose with the camera, because those other shots don't show his face.



Vikram: Could you look less . . . stiff?
Talus: No.
Vikram: Could you try?
Talus: I am doing everything you are asking me. What more do you want?
Vikram: Hold on, I have an idea.



Vikram: Ah, much better! You look much better! Your eyes are much more noticeable, too.
Talus: Oh, well, is that just not fantastic . . .



Leopold dominates his natural domain: the kitchen.





Nathaniel's shot was perfect the first time. And really obvious, so it took almost no creativity whatsoever. Still superbly fun.



Kenshin is doing his best to pose like a tough guy.
Kenshin: You wanna mess with me? You wanna mess with ME!?(beat) Not very convincing, is it?



This one is much better.



Dimitri (one of my best shots, I think)
Dimitri: The piano is great, but the guitar is really more my instrument--
Vikram: You tell me how you plan to sit on a guitar for the picture, and we'll do that.
Dimitri: You know what, never mind. This is great.




What's up next? Why, it's the Second Date Card! Tune in to see who's going on the next date!

*cute bachelor overloads*  I can't even imagine the amount of work that goes into this, Rosa... it blows my mind, but let me just say: it's fantastic!  Kudos to you and to all the sponsors.  Are you using a mod to get them to pose?  Or is that something you can do in game?

Eeeeee!  Those shots with them in the tuxes is just... perfect!  Not only do the tuxes match, but their poses and postures just speaks to each bachelor's personality!  Brava!

Thank you, thank you :D I'm glad you noticed. It was not easy. Took a lot of time, too.

Oh, this is bad. Since I had received the PM for this a few days ago, (including the other parts to it) I went to scroll down to read Part 2. Lo and behold, I realize there is no Part 2 yet!  :P

Hahaha well there is now. Enjoy.

That mascot sure can pick a winner when she sees one...

Hahaha of course.

It's a mod. And yes, it took soooo much time. I'm glad the effort was worth it. Because I had to use moveobjects on to move them into position, and it takes at least five minutes to switch to or from Live Mode from Build/Buy Mode. One sad side effect of having such a large, gorgeous, detailed house.

Very nice. And Nathaniel always manages to stand out. Kenshin is cute when he tries to be tough.

I love that part of the telescope comes through Kenshin's arm. I don't know why that amuses me, but it does.
I'm not pedantic! I just believe in precision of language.

I'm not sure if Kenshin loves it, though. That looks like it would hurt! I know he loves his telescope, but isn't he taking it a little too far?  :P

He does. It was so fun and so hard picking poses for him. Everyone else basically fit one pose or two but Nathaniel wanted to keep switching! And I have to say, that tough pose does not fit Kenshin at all, but the lines Audren added made it cute.

I love that part of the telescope comes through Kenshin's arm. I don't know why that amuses me, but it does.

Augh, I didn't catch that! Darn telescope. It was hard lining him up with it to look natural.

I'm not sure if Kenshin loves it, though. That looks like it would hurt! I know he loves his telescope, but isn't he taking it a little too far?  :P

Indeed, my sincerest apologies.

Wow Rosa, incredible job on this one! The bachelors are all so ADORABLE!!!

Thank you. They are, aren't they? Gosh, but did it take forever! I know I keep harping on that, sorry, it just took a really really long time, like you wouldn't believe. Believe it or not, I actually spent several hours on this over a couple of days. No joke.

I've been sick all week, but I think this is what I needed to make me feel better. ;D

Nice job setting up the photos too.

Rosa, this is just awesome!  Thanks so much for all you and the sponsors do for this project.  I've used that mod and I can appreciate just how much time it's taken for this "little fun thing."  And how long it takes to co-ordinate 8 people from around the world. 

So, to all of you, again, thank you.

Well, if you're trying to look tough, having a piece of astronomy equipment going through your wrist without flinching is a pretty effective way of doing it.

Hmm. Good point. Maybe Kenshin's going at this from the wrong angle. With the magic of MoveObjects on, he can become very tough!  :P

I'm sorry you've been sick, but very glad to hear this helped you feel better! That just warms my heart. And thank you, I thought they turned out well!

On behalf of my sponsors and myself, thank you and you're welcome. It is a tremendous amount of work to be sure, but for me the appreciation from readers makes it all worthwhile.

Indeed! And here he spent all that time learning martial arts.
