Today we're taking a look at a site called Male Model, a site featuring erotic art photos of dutch male models. This site is available in both english and dutch and once the brief flash intro finishes, you will find the menu on the left side of the page. Be sure and check out the Glamour Series section - these are galleries for non-members, and while there's no nudity, there's plenty of shirtless men and pics of guys in underwear. Each model in these Glamour Series pics can also be seen nude in the member area, so I think this is a great preview. This site is dedicated to photos of males, so if you're looking for videos, you've come to the wrong place but if you're looking for photos, read on! Now let's log in and take a look inside!
Navigation in the member area of Male Model is simple and, for the most part, easy to use. Links are on the left side of the page and on the right you'll find a few words about the site plus thumbs linked to the latest updates. When you click the links on the left side of the page, content will appear on the right. Although there are no dates on the updates, the tour says the site is updated every week.
When I first started browsing the member area of Male Model, I had a moment of confusion. I clicked the link that said "Art Series" and was taken to a page with 30 thumbs. Assuming each thumb leads to a gallery, I clicked a thumb and was startled when a single photo appeared in a popup. Not to worry, though - there are 160 galleries of pics to be found inside Male Model, most of which are found by clicking the NUDE SERIES and EXTENDED SERIES links.
The 73 galleries in NUDE SERIES all include guys with no clothes on, but these aren't porn or adult nudes for the most part - they are erotica, although with at least one hard cock photo in each set. Expect to see a lot of light and shadow play on nude or mostly nude male bodies. Most of the guys here are average normal guys, some thing and some muscular but most in the middle somewhere.
Keep in mind that these are dutch guys, and most don't appear to be professional models. What this means is that most of these guys don't shave their body hair - a big plus for some of us - and that a lot of the cocks here are uncut, although the photographer doesn't really make an issue of this. Something else that stood out for me here is that most of the NUDE SERIES galleries include pics of the models in briefs or jock straps, so for those of you with a taste for men in underwear, this site has a good collection.
Now let's talk specs. The galleries here are on the small side - in fact, each has only 16 pics. The photos are also on the small side, shown at around 334x500 at average to good quality. Each photo pops up in a new window and the thing that annoyed me a little is that you cannot download the pics. Right clicking is blocked on this site. Considering the smallish size of the pics, I can't see that it would hurt to allow members to download their favorites. A lot of sites allow members to download entire pic sets in a single zip set for their convenience, and I would have liked to see that feature here.
The EXTENDED SERIES galleries seem to be pic sets of the same models to be found in the NUDE SERIES galleries, but for the most part either with clothes on or stripping. There are some nudes in some of the galleries but for the most part, these pics aren't fully nude.
There are 3 Duo Series galleries, and the first of these - Kyryll & Djean - was my favorite gallery. Although there were only ten pics, these pics were carefully chosen, wonderfully posed and truly erotic and artistic. They were also well-lit and reminded me of cut and muscular fauns playing in the snow.
The bonus content inside Male Model is not what one generally finds inside a subscription website - members to Male Model get access to 20 pop song ringtones and 7 cell phone wallpapers.
What I really would like to see on this site in the future would be photographer comments on each of the photo shoots and also bios of the photographers and a little of their history. How long have they been photographers? How do they choose their models? What equipment do they use? These are questions I've seen answered on other nude art sites and I always find the answers fascinating as well as perhaps inspiring to other up and coming photographers.
If you love erotic male nudes, Male Model will probably appeal to you. The photos here are sort of coffee table art book style, with a couple harder nude pics in each gallery. There are all sorts of guys here, most with unshaven bodies, and although the pics are on the small side, the color saturation and quality is pretty good. Unfortunately the photos are not downloadable and there are no videos. There are currently 160 photo sets and the site says it updates weekly. The only bonus content here are cell phone ring tones and a few cell phone wallpapers. Still, if you prefer erotica to hardcore porn, Male Model is definitely a site not to miss!
