Stunning 18 is one of the satellite web sites in eh Met Art network established, I think, for the photographer Antonio Clemens.
This is the third or fourth time I've joined this site and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed since the last time I joined. Apparently, Antonio Clemens is no longer shooting for Met Art and, since this was essentially his site, they are scrambling to keep things going. The last time one of his sets was published was in September but it appears that his sets since April or May were from the files. Thierry Murell has stepped in, but things have changed....alot!
The number of releases has dropped to one a week, which is pretty awful considering the release schedule was 4 times a week just a year ago. And the sets that are being released are...inconsistent with the prior theme of the site and not up to the prior quality of this site or of the Met Art network. Some sets look like they were borrowed from ALSscan and some others seem like odd videos. Here's another example and this one is DAMN WEIRD! 5 sets in August, 7 sets in July, 8 sets in June and 8 sets in May. These were the last sets by Antonio Clemens and ALL OF THESE 28 SETS EXCEPT 1 were of the SAME MODEL! Now, the model is Irene and she is beautiful, but some of these "sets" were partials and the next release would be the rest. Like I said, this is just weird, especially for a site in the Met Art network. You would think they would have the collective resources to keep this site up and get it looking right again after 6 months.
Now, aside from this relatively recent weirdness, there is a lot of great 18-22 YO material here from before about May of 2018 all the way back to January of 2013. About 60-70% of the models are young, pretty and many of these models are girls you will not see elsewhere. You can tell they are new and, although there may be a few open-legged shots, you can also see that many have not yet found their confidence. All of those prior sets between 2013 and earlier this year were shot by Antonio Clemens. They are consistent and generally very good. Focus, lighting, sets, exposure, poses, etc. are all excellent.
The other 30-40% of the models in these sets are maybe a little older and much, much more experienced and open. For example, Anjelica, the pretty young porn star, has 8 videos and 3 photo sets from 2013-2015. She's not shy at all. Melena A, the little cat-tattooed gymnast turned flexy nude model is here with 17 fairly early sets, mostly photo sets. Her first set is called "Juicy Pussy". It is an accurate title but it easily could have been applied to any of her sets. There are others here, too, like 21 sets from the glam-style model Danica Jewels, here called Delilah G., and 24 videos from the wonderful naked ballarina Annett A. You get my point. The pre-2018 stuff on this site is a wonderful blend of young, light, fresh, delicate, sometimes a little shy beauties and OMG sexy porn stars and experienced, confident models that usually know how to give you what you are looking for.
This is another of the Met-Art sites that almost has the same navigation as Met-Art, but not quite. There is no option to open anything in another window. As a result, you have to either do this manually, or back up a lot. It really needs to be the same for all of these sites.
Although pricing is separate for each of the Met Art sites, they do have a nifty single sign-on feature that allows you to access any of the MA sites that you are a member of via a little pull-down menu on the main Met Art site. Once you log in using this option, the sight keeps track of you and allows access to any othe site you have subscribed too. Nice feature.
There is one other issue you should be aware of. If you are already a member of one of the Met Art sites, the single sign-on sometimes limits your "new subscriber" options to a higher rate than the one you asked for. If this happens, use a different email or contact support.
OK, almost out of room. Bottom line: In spite of the recent failings, there is a TON of great material here. If you haven't visited this site yet, there is a holiday special of only $9.95. For that price, joining is a no brainer. I will keep an eye on this site and update the score and recommendation accordingly when the site theme and new material quality stabilizes. For now it is recommended with some reservations regarding new material. |
