UK Modelling
Diesel Models works alongside over 150 model agencies throughout the UK and Ireland scouting and assessing new faces to join their agencies. They specialise in assessing a models potential, establishing what area of work they are best suited to, and then helping them approach the right agency for their needs.
We primarily help models from 4 yrs to 24 yrs of age, with no height or size restrictions as we cover every aspect of modelling from Catwalk to Commercial Modelling.
Our links to model agencies cover all areas of the UK including Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. The list is constantly updated depending on the agencies requirements.
Types of modelling covered include UK fashion, catwalk, commercial, catalogue, editorial, body, beauty, plus size, kids, teens, promotional.
Anybody trying to break into the modelling industry will get much sought after inside advice and guidance on how best to go about getting paid work, find an agency, avoid the pitfalls, and establish if modelling is suited to them.
Services we offer include assessment days, modelling workshops, portfolio building, an online forum, online portfolio hosting and website creation, a monthly model magazine, a model shop, and general modelling information and advice.
By registering on their site, users can access a number of areas of advice and are contacted by a New Faces Consultant to discuss which of their services could be of use. No upfront fee is charged.
Diesel Models has a tried and tested 5 Step Process to assist models in breaking into the industry, and depending where a model is on that process, Diesel will assist with the next step and provide assistance. Other modelling agencies include UK Models and Form Models. Find out more about UK Models.
The use of Diesel Models services are FREE of charge and there are no commitments or contracts that the model needs to agree to. Diesel Models is not a model agency as it does not find models work.
All models under the age of 22 must have the full permission of a parent, and be accompanied by a parent on a first visit. This is for the safety of the model, their wellbeing, and to help guide the new model.

Page 3 Idol Glamour Modelling Competition - 2011 Now Open
The Sun's Page 3 run the annual Page 3 Idol competition to find the next Page 3 girl. Many of our local models such as Kelly have been in the competition in previous years.
Unfortunately there are some models with appalling photos in the competition this year and means that a potential model may miss out purely because no-one can see what they look like. So it is well worth investing some money in some clear professional shots to boost your chances in the competition.
There is still time to apply to please get in touch if you would like to book a shoot.

Candi Models London Review - Feedback from One Mother of a Potential Model
Complaints about Candi Models London - Mint Brown Studios Review - Feedback from One Mother of a Potential Model
This is some feedback/review from a mother about her experiences with Candi Models at Mint Brown studios and follows the pattern of other modelling portfolio companies like form models that give the hard sell to get people to buy portfolios for modelling that they do not need as Candi Models are not a model agency.
If you need to call Candi Models the phone number for Candi Models is 02072677786 and the telephone number for Mint Brown Studios is 02072679887 if you need to call with a complaint about Candi Models.
Took my 15 year old daughter for a shoot at Candi Models. A little surprised when we walked in, as it looked just like a hair salon and there were a lot of people waiting to be photographed. It was like a conveyor belt. We were 1.1/4 hrs late getting in to be photographed, which isn't good when you live 200 miles away and have a specific train to catch on a Sunday evening! Had to ask them if they could speed things up so we didn't miss our train.
Admittedly the photos were quite good (tho the photographer was a rather odd character!). When we went in to look at the photos the girl was as nice as pie at first, saying my daughter was a "natural" model etc etc. Then the price list came out! When I said they were too expensive, she started getting aggressive, indicating that I was a bad mother and was holding my daughter's modelling career back, and why did we even bother coming as it cost a lot of money to hire the studio and the photographers! I asked if we could buy individual photos and she said no, because that isn't a portfolio.
She then stormed out, coming back in a few minutes later saying her Manager had said we could buy 6 photos for £250. By this time, time was getting on, we had an hour to get from Mint Brown to Kings Cross (not knowing the area I wasn't sure where we were exactly!)and I was starting to panic a little as didn't want to miss our train. I was going to commit to the £250, but this girl's attitude really stank, and in a snap second decision, decided not to buy any. She then slammed a form down in front of me asking me to fill it in so they could refund the £50 fee I had originally paid.
To be honest I nearly said if they were that hard up they could keep the money. I didn't expect to get this money back anyway (and will be pleasantly surprised if this materialises!). I felt very under pressure to buy the photos, and did not like being talked to in that manner; a stranger telling me what was best for my daughter. I do actually regret not buying the photos now, as there were some really nice ones. However, if you don't buy, they delete them all as soon as you have gone so you don't even have the option to buy any later. For real female modelling jobs and a uk based child modelling agency check out Kube Studios.
All I will say is treat this with a pinch of salt - if you've got the money and really want a portfolio then try Candi Models. However, they are not a modelling agency and can't get you modelling jobs!

Facebook Down - Facebook Error DNS failure
It looks like the Facebook website is down again. The error being given varies from
Service Unavailable - DNS failure / DNS error, The server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later to Zero size error amongst others but other websites do not appear affected. The same problem apparently occurred yesterday.
It is very unusual for a multi-country website such as Facebook to ever be down completely and unreachable for DNS. Is this a Facebook server error or some DDoS attack?
