Surely many of you are super eager to find out who wins the awards of our exclusive sponsors Anne Stokes, Joseph Vargo (Nox Arcana & Monolith Graphics) & Vampfangs. There were changes in the last round of the competition, which were necessary and we urgently introduced a new regulation for fair selection of winners in the competition. The recent top 10 models were:
1. No. 27. Felicity Hawthorn-Chapman, UK
2. No. 22. Debbie Todd, UK
3. No. 59. NoxPrincessa, USA
4. No. 44. Lilith Vampyre, UK
5. No. 67. Sara Zimmermann, Germany

8. No. 48. Magdalena von Helfenstein, Czech Republic
9. No. 53. Michelle Ulber, USA
10. No. 29. Gatto Nero Katzenkunst, Germany
Three participants were selected within about a week by our three judges by criteria for overall aesthetic, make-up, fashion, style, setting, mood, photography, and how well the model reflects the gothic/vampiric spirit.
And now it’s time to share the final results with you:
