Re: Fucking with what works? WTF?

Dude, I've been one of your closet fans here, and I've defended your posts, your right to market in moderation. I still believe in that, so please hear me out. Because I've gotta say something ... and please take this as constructive criticism ...

You -- or Karina, whomever is responsible for this style change -- fucked with something that worked, and worked well. ;)

I know a lot of us loved Karina for her dark, raven, natural look. This is about as unnatural as she could ever look -- no, you went beyond what I ever could have imagined was the worst look possible for her. I'm being very harsh, just flat-out critical, and I admit this is 100% opinion. You may have market studies that say otherwise, but I'll feel the same.

Understand I have never criticized how you have presented other women. I can understand the glamour and airbrushing and other things. It's classy, cheesecake and other things. Even I enjoy it, even when I prefer more of the natural looks a bit more. But this is really taken it too far in my view.

Karina Hart was already classy in her looks, very '60s/'70s style pin-up, voluptuous. You didn't need to go here, change all that worked, or at least not so radically -- play with a little style if you want, but not nearly this much. You, or she, fucked with what worked. Please, please consider reverting her to her older styles, or at least something along those lines.

I may be in the minority, but everyone who I've talked to, everyone who feels she's a top 10 or even top 5 model -- of all-time -- in their books, agrees this is not the right move for her look. I could be wrong, or talking to the people who don't matter, but I don't see it.

I mean, does Score have a trademark or copyright on her being a dark raven brunette? That's the only reason I can think of for making this change. Because her prior look is what made her Voluptuous Model of the Year. Just pointing out the obvious, I don't see this as a good move at all.

As such,I'd just leave this as an "experiment." Publish the few sets of her with it and move back to what works. That's my advice. It's my opinion and should only be treated as such. Others may differ.

P.S. The only reason I can see for staying with this is if it makes Karina herself feel more beautiful. I can understand that and respect that, and I will say no more if that is the case.

Gotta agree with Prof. I like my Karina the way she was.
 
I believe she is going to stick with just plain glamour modeling. She was not terribly thrilled with doing the more explicit stuff she did in the past and has indicated that she is moving away from that now.

As for the name change, her original name is legally owned as a trademark by her former company, and therefore she is not allowed to pose using that name and nor can anyone working with her now use it, so she came up with a new name.

And it's pronounced "Loo-VAY" as in rhymes with "duvet" (and "Kay" as well) so I think that's actually really catchy.

Are you guys planning on giving her, her own personal site? Cos I see the page up and just wanted to clarify.

I know, I have no say in this what so ever, but I wish you guys wouldn't photoshop away all the imperfections [blemishes & freckles and moles] from her skin. I kinda miss that natural look.
