Hollywood Boulevard transforms even the strongest personality and for this exclusive shoot for Models.com by Jason Eric Hardwick cinematic beauty takes a twisted turn. This dark comedy has Rhiannon McConnell playing the wide-eyed, screen siren interested only in adorning the mundane. Beautified beyond even the glitz of Tinsel Town, elaborate, tortuously applied jewels by makeup artist Kanako Takase and Krisana Sotelo take the classic archetype from day to night where vanity turns to a manic obsession. In this case, the stand-out model is literally masked in different shades of gemstones. Shingo Shibata further fashions Rhiannon for the role with big hair fit for expensive tastes and showy glamour. See the full metamorphosis in this gem-bent beauty story.
