Thousands of years old art form.

The comments left before me demonstrate how insecure Americans are about the human body. The puritanical christians of the US are on par with the extremists of the middle east.

Most places in the world are very accustomed to life models and nude art. I've read about christians going to Europe for vacation and suffering the vapours when confronted with nude sculptures. (works of art, many hundreds of years old)

It's the truest form of art folks. It's not obsessing over women's bodies because men pose nude as well. Adults of ALL ages are nude models, even (shocker ha) senior citizens.

They are bodies; we all have one and there is nothing wrong with the nude body. Famous, priceless art hangs in museums - of "nekkid folks".

I have been in art classes where I was sketching both men and women, and my brother has used nude models for his paintings as well. It is not sexual, it is the artistic study of the human form.

On the flip side, to paint the actual body has been a form of art for thousands of years in numerous cultures. So America, pull your heads out of your brain washing bibles, and grow up. It's a fun show, the artists are talented and it was very interesting to watch..

No thanks

Although these artists are talented i think they are obsessed with naked woman. Body art is just all about sex and staring at a woman's nudity. Not real art..

Basically A Promo Commercial for another show
nephalinesyenite23 December 2013
An awful-cobbled together special, that is really just a promo for SyFy's new body painting show Naked Vegas.

-There is an overview of the two body painting challenges from Season 1 and 2 of Face Off. Really? This needed repeating?

-4 body painters (including Face Off Season 2 contestant NIX) paint 2 models "live" on the Face Off set. While their skills are evident, I found it pretty lacklustre.

  • The only interesting/exciting part of the special was the brief photos and footage of body painting work at runway shows, magazine covers, Conventions, etc. and a mention of who are the top body painters in the field, as well as a bit of history. All of this together only takes up about 1/4 of the time!


For viewers, if you want to get enjoyment out of this special, turn it into a drinking game. Every time Mackenzie or anyone else says "Naked Vegas", take a drink! Seriously, it's ridiculous how many times the name of the series is mentioned.
