Between November 2000 (see archives) and November 2008 step by step the world grew hungry for a political change in America. Last night it arrived. Bob Dylan (1964) was right: The Times They Are a-Changin’. Many of us have been awake all night to follow the historic election of 44th president of the United States on the TV screens. McCain proved to be a good loser, Barack Obama proved to be a farseeing winner. After so many years Americans can be proud again. Congratulations!

While we’re still waiting for our model profile script to get ready, we want to offer you some new fine art nude pictures. The girl is Hana Perlikova from Czech Republic. Here are her photos.

Today we are proudly presenting a new model. She’s called Isa Belle. We discovered her last summer in a supermarket where she worked at the checkout. Born and raised up in Angola she moved to Germany only a couple of years ago. In the beginning she had to work 12 hours and more a day, just to earn her living because she was paid very poorly. During the day she lent a hand in a shop, from evening until midnight she jobbed at McDonald’s. Looking at her photos we think that she should consider working as model. Any objections?

Here’s Isa Belle’s first album. Feel free to leave a comment.

We’re delighted to present you the first new model after our “Come Back” a couple of days ago. The girl’s name is Barbora “BB” (yes, with an “o” instead of an “a"). She comes from Slovakia and we’ve seen her at a fair in late August 2007 where we asked her if she liked to pose for us. Well, right the next day we met and shot new material for Pics & Models. Hope you’ll like her. We do

If you like her, you may want to visit her Album 01. Don’t forget your comments. If they turn out to be positive, we shoot more photos for you of her.

Well, obviously we’ve been a little too optimistic and too forwardly 6 months ago. After having pronounced our coming back we got into technical troubles, which - due to lack of time - we could get rid off only now. Therefore we want to inform you about our “Re-Come Back” a little less ostentatiously.

Besides that, the information we gave you last September is still valid: our website is now a dynamic one, which means that you have more options to participate in our project and that it’s easier for us to handle it.

Just like in the very beginning of the existance of this website almost 8 years ago, we start with two main pillars:

(1) Our Blog (which we called “chronicle” before)
(2) Pics of Models we’ve been working with (and still do)

A little later we also intend to install a forum, where different groups can share different interests. And finally, as soon as the software is ready, we want to bring you back our very popular “iModels” section, where Models may create their own setcards and photographers can do extensive searches.

We like to welcome you now and hope that you feel well surfing around these pages. Grab yourself a cup of coffee, tea (or whatever you like) and stay as long as you want.

Within the last year some may have lost their hope, that Pics & Models will ever come back. Although it lasted longer than we thought, we can finally present you a renewed version of Pics & Models.

For now we have
1) a blog (this one - formerly known as “chronicle") and
2) the popular gallery of our models.
Both of course multilingual, as we still try to be as international as possible.

Those of you who miss the iModels section and the setcards will still have to wait a little longer. We plan to have it online as well by the end of November 2007.

Send your tips, wishes and advices to webmaster[at]pics-and-models.com.

We are a bit sad because this is the last update of Pics-and-Models in the way we have run this website since summer 2000. It has grown very strongly and got so extensive at this time, though, that it is inconvenient for you to surf around and too large for us to handle it anymore with manual work. We have therefore decided to spend this summer giving Pics-and-Models a completely new structure and outfit and managing it database supported in future. We can not estimate how long it will last to release the new web site online, but we have the ball and look forward to see you again soon!

We have to apologize to you: once again there are problems with our PC system. It’s under repair at present. So we have to postpone our update :-(

The day before yesterday we’ve received an eMail from our friend Dwayne from Body-in-Mind. He writes: “On January 3, 2006, 17-year-old Nazanin was sentenced to death for murder by a court in Iran after she reportedly admitted fatally stabbing one of three men who attempted to rape her and her 16-year-old niece in a park in March 2005.” You can help saving the life of this Iranian girl from hanging. Click here.

There are further informations on the website of Amnesty International or e.g. on the website of Persian singer Shahrzad Sepanlou, where you also read about another young woman, Delara Darabi, also recently sentenced to hanging in northern Iran.

But we don’t want to forget that we have a couple of new iModels for you: Jamie, Julia Knauber, Jasminchen, Derya Gürbüz, Lena Janzen und Beata Krupowicz.

For all fans of Elena Nikulina waiting time comes to its end finally. We give you 20 new photos. These pictures also have been shot last October in Prague.a
