Ian Daviau Wins!

But not really... just hold your horses now! Ian did manage to get the most rankings in the contest, a testament to his legions of fans. And in the process he earns a nice $100 bill.  However, the real deal is just about to begin.  This thing is far from over! Ian and the rest of the gang still have another hurdle ahead.

We're just about a week away from selecting the winner of the $3000+ (cash/prizes) Masculine contest and choosing who'll get to go to Jamaica in April.  Now, we want you the viewers to get involved in helping us select the top 10 models.  They're way too many contestants now, so we have to narrow it down.  Would you help us please?

Luis Rafael and Michael Anthony Downs will be going to Jamaica with the winner of the $3000+ Masculine Mag Model Search Contest.  The two world-renowned artists will team up to photograph the lucky winner and two other pre-selected models in what's being described as a "production in paradise".  

It will be tropical sun, white sands and gorgeous hunks frolicking in one of the most exotic Caribbean islands.  The crew will  be staying in a lush villa surrounded by nature and pristine blue seas, and the expectations are high to create some of the most amazing male model images in recent memory.

The Masculine Mag model search/contest is currently underway, and on March 27th the winner will be announced.  The cash prize alone is $1,500 USD.  Roughly 40 contestants will compete for the final slot of this production.
