this is a crappy pic, but it gives you an idea of what the Ukrainian bodyart festival is like. Just imagine full nudity (with every Russian babe a 20 something model type) and a DSLR, 4000 pixel pic...
I noticed that even the babes doing the painting in the pics above are model types. So I'm thinking these are, like at the World Bodypainting festival in Austria, not just ordinary babes, but truly ARE models. Its a little hard to tell, as just about every Russian babe looks like a model to me

But its interesting, though, that the overall quality of the paint jobs is not professional quality like you'd expect if models were hired as canvases. Not surprising, I guess, if the babes themselves do much of the painting..?
