Pros:
Very appealing user interface
Only genuinely beautiful/sexy models featured
Different resolutions of pictures and videos available for download
Wide variety of performances, stretches the limits of erotic art, but never go beyond it(Ample use of props, dildos, peeing performances, etc.)
Backstage video to go with almost every gallery in recent times
A public forum for members to voice their opinions/demands/criticisms, which are personally replied to, and even acted upon wherever possible
The models are among the most gorgeous on the web
Cons:
Not enough outdoor shoots
Too Europe-centric, especially Czech-centric. Not enough blacks, American and Asian models
Magazine videos/pictures cannot be downloaded, are available only for viewing
Too heavy a site for a slow-speed internet connection
Bottom Line:
I'm not sure where to start, as I have so much to praise about this site. I'll start from the home page. Very well designed, a slideshow of huge pictures greet the user, with options lower down the page to navigate to the galleries, cams, free photos/trailer, and the members' section.
The cams are a farce as in almost every other Erotica site, redirecting you to an adult chat site(chatgf in this case), where you are required to purchase an additional premium membership to get access to premium features such as Private Chat, etc. I'll leave it there.
Jumping to the members' section, the member is greeted with the cover of the latest gallery/video, below which are the most recent issues of the magazine(a section covered later in this review). There's an elegant navigation bar to the left throughout the site which allows a user to navigate to Galleries(includes Videos), Cams, Magazine and About Us(not sure how the latter fits in here though). There is, similarly, another elegant navigation area, which could be termed as a mini-sitemap, at the bottom of every page on the site. These take the user to almost anywhere in the site, ranging from the galleries to the legal section.
Moving on to the galleries, the content itself is mind-blowing: The quality of pictures and videos is exemplary, that of backstage videos leaves a bit to be desired(But hey! They're only 'backstage' videos!). There's a wide spectrum of acts that the models perform for the viewer, ensuring that the galleries never get too monotonous, while at the same time resisting the temptation of going hardcore, a temptation that I have unfortunately seen some other sites in the same niche venture into, and a temptation that I hope Watch4Beauty never succumbs to. Here's how W4B describes itself: "W4B, is an exclusive, on-line erotic art magazine, for gentlemen of taste."
The peeing performances on this site, for instance, are testimony to W4B's ability to get sexier and sexier without diving into the dirty world of hardcore porn, and deserve a special mention in here. I was never a fan of watching girls urinate, but was surprised to see how sensual and sexy the peeing performances on this site have been made to look. I'm sure you would enjoy them too, irrespective of your current attitude towards peeing performances. There's now no shame in admitting how much a love these peeing performances, as much the other performances.
Members can view the pictures as a slideshow, download pictures in 3 different resolutions, backstage video in 1 (decent)resolution, and videos in 5 different resolutions/formats.
Proceeding to the magazine section, this is a mixed bag, and not all issues are adults-only. The magazine issues cover W4B models' backstage activities, luxury vacations, cartoons by the in-house cartoonist Dan, porn stars, and even porn/erotica sites that are direct rivals of Watch4Beauty. One drawback of this section is undoubtedly the inability of a member to download the pictures/video in a magazine issue.
There are a few other freebies like E-Cards, wallpapers, posters, etc. Not that they need to provide all this with the wonderful job they're doing with the part of the site that matters.
All in all, it's not just ONE of the best erotic art sites out there currently, it is THE best erotic art site out there currently. And I say this from the experience of having been a member in at least 6 other 'popular' erotic art sites in recent times. An absolute 5* site!
Just decided to give this site a try and i'm disappointed to see that the subscription price is not $14.95 as shown on Best Porn. Instead it is $29.95. Very disappointed.

Pros:
Excellent selection of beautiful models
Exclusive content
A few of the most popular European models
Nicely done, tasteful site
Navigation is good
Available file size is up to 5600k
Most videos are in 720p.
Cons:
Single biggest gripe is username/password management
Only one set added every other day or so.
Videos are mostly ho-hum.
Bottom Line:
I've been a member here a couple of times and keep forgetting to write a review. It is up there on the list of erotic/softcore photo sites, but just a tad below the frontrunners. Why? That's the hard part to explain.
Probably because the site only updates a few times a week and the collection is not yet maga-large. They've got about 350 models and maybe 1200 sets compared to, for example, Met Art's 2,000+ models and 12,500+ sets.
No hardcore sex. Just solo and girl girl scenes. BUT, there is a reasonable amount of in-your-face viewing, insertion, etc. and the girls in the girl-girl scenes seem pretty much into each other. Those attributes differentiate this site from FemJoy or MetArt,
There is a broad range of action in the photo sets. Same are nude girl in the woods, some are nude in public and some are girl getting off using her hands or toys. There are also a few peeing scenes if you are into that. There are far more toys in this site than in, say, Met Art. Maybe twenty percent of the sets have a toy involved, but it depends on the model and the toys seem to be included more as a prop than a utensil to be used for a specific purpose. In fact, there are a lot of sets where fruit and other things are included primarily for aesthetics.
The model's interaction with the camera is generally good. Each set has a mix of images with eye contact but this, too, depends on the model. A few of the videos are somewhat interactive but most are not. Many of the videos are just working the photo shoots. The amount of fun in the videos and shoots seems to depend on the model. The energy or playfulness in the sets tends toward reserved...again a function of the softcore genre..and the model.
The mix of indoor and outdoor scenes is good. The girls are mostly petite young Europeans, but there are a few Americans, a few latin americans and several full figured girls in the mix.
All images come batched in 2 zip file sizes and one PDF file compilation (really odd...), videos are a few minutes long and generally in 720p. You can get individual images in 5000x4000 or larger, but these are not in zip files.
Now there is one other interesting thing on this site that I would never have even looked at if it were not for the comments of another reviewer. It's the magazine. It serves a similar function as the tease blog on other sites, but the range of topics is a little broader and more entertaining. What happens, for example, when you give a camera to a model and put her in front of a big mirror? From what I can see, she learns it is harder than it appears to be a good photographer. But sadly, much of the beautiful photography in the magazine section is zipped or catalogued and is not yet available in the photo-sets section. One of the magazine writer's recent obsessions named Emily is not on the rest of the site at all. So it is a teaser blog after all, I guess.
The single most annoying thing about this site is the password management policy. You cannot pick your own username or password so you get a random, impossible to remember username and password that can't be changed. And then on top of that, the site implements protocols that prevent your browser from remembering the username/password. Be SURE to create a PDF of the confirmation page (or a link to ccbill, the biller) if you ever want to get into the site again once you sign up. I understand they don't want passwords to be shared, but the guy who came up with this strategy should be flogged...and not in a good way.
Other annoyances:
-Navigation within a photo set, i.e. going to the next or previous image, is only available if you select the smallest view size.
-All of the images in a set are numbered 001, 002, 003, etc. That might not be a huge problem if you download everything in zip format, but if you want to keep only yor favorate images of a model, be prepared to rename everyting or keep multiple folders. Not cool.
-Although many of the images are available at something like 5760x4800 (that's like 7 feet by 5 feet at 72dpi), many of these larger images either aren't very crisp or clear or they have artifacts in them. I'm not sure why that is because a few other sites that have very large images don't have this problem. Maybe it is the algorithm used to compress or resize the images from the very large raw format they are probably shot in....I don't know. What I do know is that the large images can be dissapointing and they should work on fixing this.
Bottom Line: The site is definitely worth an annual visit. There is a lot to sift through, but once you do sift through it, there may not be enough updates to keep you for more than a month or two. I plan on coming back once a year or so.
Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
Pros:
- Lots of beautiful models
- High res, high quality photos
- Contemporary, modern feel to the site
- Contemporary themes - decor, clothing etc - to the sets
- Interesting magazine section
- Good TBP price
- Frequent updates - apprx 4/week
Cons:
- Would prefer a bit more age/ethnicity variation
- No zips of highest res photos
- Most videos aren't exciting
- Most videos have music track with no live sound
- Regional pricing
- Dictates username and password; times out quickly
- Search is very basic, just the set name; no filtering etc
Bottom Line:
W4B has been on my list for a while - I've always liked their cover shots, being a bit glam/arty/sexy - and the TBP price made it too hard to resist - it has a regional pricing discrepancy, but at 50% off I figured it was churlish to avoid it on principle.
The first thing you notice is that the site design is very clean, modern, contemporary; like some of the more arty sites around etc Joymii etc; it makes you feel a little less sordid about browsing online porn and, although admittedly I passed that hurdle some time ago, it's still nice to use an attractive site.
There are the usual listings available; namely:
* Models - approx 300
* Photos - approx 1000
* Casting - about 100 more photo sets, but very plain with no scene
* Videos - approx 200
Given that the site is a reasonable size, it's a shame there's no other browsing modes; it would be good to search sets by theme, or models by age, figure, etc... but it's just about manageable.
The models are all very attractive, and natural - there are few, if any, fake boobs here. It is, however, almost exclusively an East European site, with the large majority of models being Czech - but it is what it is so although I'd like to see a bit more variation, it's not really a complaint as such. Each model has some basic stats, links to their galleries, and some of the more popular ones have bios. There are lots of popular and well-known models there, including Ariel, Tess, Caprice, Melisa - but plenty more new to me.
Each picture set consist of about 70 pictures, and are available in 1K, 2K and 5K. As others have noted, there are no zips available for the max 5K size - however, I don't see why they bother with the restriction since it is extremely trivial - 2 or 3 clicks - to fetch the full 5K set with a manager like DownThemAll. Some of he pictures don't actually warrant that resolution; but many do and are generally very sharp.
The material itself is a bit more glam, a bit more raunchy, than you'd see the same models doing at eg Met Art; partly in the level of explicitness with plenty of close up shots and some sex toys; and partly just in the attitude of the model. This is what tempted me to join; and although I still feel the same, I think they very much choose the best shots for the cover - I was expecting a bit more glam-fetishy, like some of the milder material at Juliland, but some of the sets are are a bit too drawn out (I'm actually a big fan of the 25-pic sets at Juliland; there's no filler). And I'll echo tangub's suggestion that all the clothes usually come off a bit too soon; would be good to have a bit more teasing. But these are still fun, sexy sets, with a bit more character than some other art-nude sites - featuring lingerie, and some unusual indoor and outdoor locations (some very public!) Most of the newer sets have an accompanying BTS videos, which are interesting.
Videos I found less inspiring; including general pouting, and some more explicit with masturbation - but they tend to be short, 5-6 minutes, and mostly have a soundtrack all the way through, with no actual sound; there is some clever, arty editing in some of them, but although I like that sort of thing, it's a bit style-over-substance - there's a reason we are watching this stuff, after all, and I found I kept fairly few compared to the photos.
The other part of the site is an aspiring-to-playboy-type magazine area; consisting of articles in categories such as other porn stars/sites, erotic art & photography, and luxury life such as cars, boats and the like. I actually think this is quite a nice feature; it lends to the classiness of the site ('I only get it for the articles, really') and I found some good links and material there. Some may dismiss it as filler, but I think it's good to see a site adding a little extra value.
Overall this is a good, solid site, and although not quite as different/unique as I'd hoped, and left me a little cold, it's still hard to fault - especially for $15 (or a bit more). If you like this kind of site, and if what you see on the tour (pictures-wise, at least) appeals to you, it's recommended.
This is a decent site of Ashley Bulgari made by the owners of Watch4Beauty and the galleries and videos are exclusive, so these aren't on any other site or W4B.
Pros:
-5000px on the long side
-HD 1280x720
-25 sets with all sets having videos and images (1342 pics)
-CCBill payment
-fast download speed (highest I had was 500 kb/sec)
-WMV or MP4
-choose between small, med or large
-zips (sml, med & lg)
Cons:
-not much features
-some pictures are somewhat grainy
-small sets
-not much sets or videos
-too pricey for the amount here, but still an okay price for the qulaity
other:
-watermark on the bottom right (medium size)
-last update was on May 9, 2012
-short bio, link to official twitter/facebook
Bottom line, I think this is a great solo site with great quality images and HD videos. You also have the ability to choose from either 1200, 2000 or 5000 pixel images (long side) and either WMV or MP4 with them being in 1280x720.
Having just read the latest review of W4B at The Best Porn I'm a little confused about one thing. They say under the pros and I quote "Images come in three sizes, and all have zips". When I was there 6 months ago zips were only available in the small and medium sizes and there was a thread in the forum about the issue where the site owners stated the largest zips had been removed due to piracy. Does this mean the large zips have now been reinstated or is this just an oversight by TBP? Can any recent members clarify this issue?
Was a member approx. 3 months prior to this review.
Pros:
- High quality content (videos and pictures)
- Glamour-style photography and videos with nice settings
- Lovely, skinny girl
- Lots of different download options - different video/picture resolutions, different video formats, ZIPs etc
Cons:
- Not much content
- No longer updates
- Some of the videos are a bit over-edited, but might just be down to personal taste
Bottom Line:
Definitely not a bad website, but certainly a 'join once, download what you like, then never join again' website due to no longer updating - I do love the glamour-photography style, you know, a nude girl in a beautiful lagoon. That kind of simplicity and natural beauty really appeals to me.
Content-wise it all seems very good quality. Nice videos and great photography, lots of different formats and all easy to download and keep.
Overall, factoring the amount of content and lack of updates, it's quite poor value, but quality-wise it's pretty good.
I tried to sign up this AM and only the $29.95 option is presently listed for a 1 month recurring option. That stinks because this looked like a pretty good deal. Oh well.
This is an awesome site with great picture quality and the best bonus sites ever. The only thing wrong with this site, is that you can't download a zip of the largest resolution. They also keep updating, which the model I love on there has six more sets since I left, I guess I'll have to sign up again.
Now, I'm a fan of Verunka (Veronika Fasterova) and I have to say this site almost gives you more than any site that includes her on their site. First of all, she's a soft core model which she only does solo only with may be a few sets with another girl, which this site has two sets with her and different girl in both sets. You can pick different pictures size and the highest is, 4000x2667. The photos don't give you much of a close ups, but does show of course nudity and her with clothes on. There are a few sets were the focus of the pictures aren't that clear as some are. They don't have any daily updates on the site, but overall this is worth the $15.

Cons:
Regional pricing supplement
**NO ZIPS FOR THE HIGHEST RESOLUTION PHOTOS**
May be too softcore and arty for some although not a con for me.
Most videos quite short at around 3-4 minutes
A few of the oldest videos don’t have the hd option
Lacking any real model bios, only basic info provided like year of birth, height, measurements and country.
The entire model directory displays on 1 page so could take time to load if your connection is not the fastest.
No search or sort tools apart from the basic “photos, videos and models” categories
Too many photo sets/videos start out with the model nude or wearing very little.
A little too much photo shopping at times
A few non exclusive photo sets I recognised from other sites.
Bottom Line:
This site features a fine collection of 244 models in professional style glamour/nude art style photo and video content. W4B is based in Prague and as such you’ll find around 95% of the models come from the Czech Republic and other Eastern European countries. I found many of my favourites here including the likes of Ariel. Lola, Nella, Monika Vesela and Marketa Belonoha. Ashley Bulgari also has a fine collection here with 28 photo sets and 4 videos Of the few non euro babes here a cute Latina named Ruth Medina from Venezuela caught my eye as did a gorgeous black model named Jessica although sadly she only had 2 photo sets totalling less than 100 photos.
The 1025 photo sets are basically split into 2 categories, “Erotic photos” and “castings”. I found the casting shoots a little dull as they were mostly just a studio shoot with a plain white backdrop. However the Erotic photo sets had a good mix of indoor and outdoor locations as well as a few daring outdoor public shoots. The photo shoot of Becca on the Charles Bridge in Prague certainly seemed to attract a lot of attention from the passing tourists. At times I found myself wishing the models would start out the shoots wearing a little more clothing to make it more interesting and sexy and sometimes they go a little too overboard with the photo shopped special effects for my taste. Many of the photo sets come with a corresponding backstage video which can be streamed or downloaded. The biggest con for photo collectors might be the lack of a zip download for the highest resolution pictures. It’s not a big deal for me as I prefer the mid size option to save on hd space. The site admin replied to a comment in the forum stating the high res zips were removed due to piracy so they must have been available in the past as TBP review of March 2010 stated that zips are offered in all sizes.
I’m mainly here for the photo collection so I’m not sure if the videos here would totally satisfy video fans. In addition to the backstage videos there’s a collection of 161 what they call “Sensual Videos”. The videos are usually quite short at 3 to 4 minutes and quite tame really usually involving the model just posing and showing off her body. There are some that contain some masturbation and toy use but I would say those are in the small minority. All the videos I’ve watched so far (around 60) contain music so you rarely get to hear the model make any sounds. With the 1280x720 vids playing at 5000k and the 1024x576 playing at 3-4000k I found the difference in quality between the high and low options barely noticeable so ended up downloading the smaller files.
Extra features on the site include magazine articles, wallpapers, e-cards, jokes and you also get access to some free live public cam shows which kept me amused from time to time. Overall probably a site more suited to photo than video fans with a stunning collection of top name models but personally I slightly prefer the more natural look of the photos at MPL Studios and Digital Desire so as a result find myself scoring W4B a point or two lower than those sites at 86.

Pros:
Payments processed by CCBill
Included as a free bonus site when signing up via Watch 4 Beauty along with 3 other solo sites which make up the Erotic Dreams 4 You package.
Discount links for other company sites within member’s area.
Photo’s offered in 3 sizes, small 1200px, medium 2000px and large 4992px (some 4368px)
Slideshow and zip download in each size plus a pdf file in the medium size.
Videos have 2 download options 1280x720 and 720x576 in both wmv and mov plus an ipod version.
File sizes listed for all download options
Cons:
Regional pricing
Smallish site with only 46 photo sets (2804 photos) and 8 videos average run time about 3 minutes each.
As a standalone site not really worth the $14.95 price tag for such a limited amount of content
A few photo sets duplicated from W4B
No updates
No model interaction
Bottom Line:
This is a site featuring stunning Czech babe Veronika Fasterova (a.k.a. Verunka, Vikki) in an archived collection of photos and videos mostly dating from 2007. The number of photo sets has actually increased by 1 since the last TBP site facts update of March 2010 and it looks like a photo set was added in November 2010 according to the date/file name on the zip but apart from that there’s been no other activity in 3-4 years here. 43 of the photo sets feature Veronika in softcore solo posing and in 3 of the sets you will see her posing with another model including a light bondage theme shoot with Lola. The videos are pretty much just films of the photo shoots. Overall high quality content of a beautiful model but it won’t take very long to see everything here so difficult to recommend joining as a standalone site but a nice little free bonus site if you have a membership at W4B.

Pros:
Billing is by CCBill
Comes as part of the Erotic Dreams 4 You package of sites which is included as free bonus sites with a subscription to Watch 4 Beauty
Discount provided to other company sites.
Photos offered in 3 sizes, 1200, 2000 and 4992px with slideshow and zip options for each plus a pdf option in the 2000 size.
Videos offered in 2 sizes in both wmv and mov format plus an ipod version
Cons:
Regional pricing
Small amount of content
Not updated since 2007
As a stand alone site poor value for money at $14.95 for content which will take less than an hour to go through.
Bottom Line:
This is a website featuring Czech model Nikky Case also known as Irena (Sweet Irena) and is the smallest of the 4 “Dreams” sites which I got free with my W4B membership. There’s only 28 photo sets (1644 photos) and 3 videos each around 3 minutes long here so it really won’t take long to view everything. One of the 3 videos is not even a proper video as it just features a slideshow of photos accompanied by music. Most of the photos date from late 2006 to early 2007 with most of it being fairly tame softcore posing and there’s a couple of lesbian galleries with one of them featuring the well known model Nella. As with the other Dreams sites there’s no model interaction as its just an archive collection and the only other extras are a few wallpapers and e-cards. Quite honestly if you’re a fan of this model she has much more and better content at Teen Dreams IMO.
Just a quick follow up to my review as my month here is coming to an end. Only 1 new update so far in September and that was a video so as a photo fan very disappointing that i've only seen 1 new photo set in the entire month of my membership. Maybe they should consider removing the false claim of "Pretty 4 Ever updates 5 days a week" from their home page.

Cons:
Regional pricing
Smallish site with only 33 photo sets (1727 photos) and 8 videos
Expensive as a standalone site at $14.95 for the amount of content, better to join W4B and get it for free.
No updates for several years.
Bottom Line:
This is a site featuring Czech babe Vendula Bednarova who goes under the name Ambra here and also at the sister site Watch 4 Beauty but you might also have seen her listed as Vanessa Cooper at some other sites such as Twistys and Pier999. The content on the site is not date stamped but the zips and video file names use dates that would indicate most of the content dates from 2007 to early 2008 when Vendula was 24 years old. It doesn’t take very long to see everything on offer here. The videos are only 2-3 minutes long and are mostly just extracts from the photo shoots but the quality is good with 7 out of the 8 videos having a 1280x720 option with 5000kbps bitrate.
A good number of the photo shoots feature Vendula in outdoor locations such as white sand beaches surrounded by palm trees or by a waterfall. Everything here is pretty softcore with nothing more explicit than nude posing. I also found 6 photo galleries and 1 of the videos here duplicated in W4B so not everything is exclusive to this site. Apart from a few wallpapers and e-cards there’s no real extras or model interaction that gives the site any of the personality that you might look for on a solo site so basically it’s just a small archive of photos and videos that’s not been updated in years and which took me about an hour to go through
Well, I'll hardily high-five this site (unseen) for one thing, and that being one with a rare non-reocurring feature. In my book that speaks volumes. If only major sites would offer that option without gouging us for an extra fee, then they'd get more of my attention.

Cons:
Small site with only 23 photo galleries (2185 photos) and 6 videos at 3 to 4 minutes in length.
Poor value as a standalone site at $14.95
Regional pricing
Not updating
Bottom Line:
This is a softcore solo model site featuring Czech babe Monika Vesela who became an instant favourite of mine from the first days I got the internet back in 2002 when I saw some of her earliest content as a fresh faced teen on sites like atk and teenflood. This is one of 4 solo sites in the Erotic Dreams 4 You package which comes free when you sign up at Watch 4 Beauty.
Most of the content here was added around November to December 2007 with no updates since then and it only takes an hour or two to view the small amount of content but what they do have is excellent quality with hi res photos up to 5000px and 1280x720 videos that play at 5000kbps bitrate. It’s all very tame content with nothing more explicit than nude posing. I would imagine that most of the content here is exclusive although I did notice 4 of the photo sets and 2 videos were duplicated on W4B. Apart from a few wallpapers and e-cards there are no real extras or model interaction to give the site any personality. My score is based on the site’s limited value as a standalone site.

Pros:

Discount offered to other company sites.
Exclusive content, 563 photo galleries and 131 videos.
Photos can be browsed online in 3 sizes, 1200px, 2000px and up to 4368px

Choice of 7 download options for videos usually a high and low res option in wmv, mov and avi plus an ipod option.
Site is still updating (see also cons)
File sizes given for zip and video downloads
Content date stamped
Cons:
Regional pricing
Maybe too softcore for some
Updates have been sporadic for some time. The site tour claims to update 5 times a week but in reality rarely achieves 5 in a month.
Photo set cover not included in zip
Some noticeable photo shopping
Camera work in videos seems a bit amateurish at times.
Bottom Line:
This is another one of those nude art sites featuring a collection of 131 mostly Russian 18 to 22 year old models in exclusive photo and video content. The earliest content on the site dates from May 2007 and in the early days the site grew quite rapidly with updates 5 days a week but in the last couple of years the growth has really slowed down. In the last year since August 2010 I counted a meagre 39 photo sets and 8 videos added and there’s no pattern to the updates now so no telling when something new can be expected so I certainly won’t be hanging around longer than the month to find out.
The quality of the content for the most part is pretty decent with nice high res photos up to 4300 pixels and HD videos usually somewhere around 1280x720 or 1440x1080 in the various formats. It’s all very softcore here and you won’t see anything more explicit than girls simply posing nude even in the 2 girl shoots, no masturbation or toy play. The videos are a mixed bag, some just a recording of the photo shoot while in others you might get a bit of a striptease and some nude posing accompanied by music or sometimes you just have to listen to them being directed what to do in Russian. They certainly lack the erotic feel you get in the videos at MPL Studios.
The site is easy enough to navigate. You have the usual options to browse either photos, videos or models but other than that no real search or sort options. The models all display on 1 page, you click on a model and get all her photo sets and videos, what more do you really need on a site this size. At just over 33,000 photos it certainly can’t compete with the likes of Met and Femjoy for volume and I was done with the site in less than a week but overall I did quite enjoy the collection of cute Russian models and good quality photos.
Here is a lesson:
We keep looking for good sites - but sometimes we forget our past joins - and by mistake I joined Watch4beauty again - stupid me...(my own fault, by all means)
Reason: The site is selling it self well, too well - a WOW-preview and foremost GREAT models - but the site has turned more weird than ever... remember those pretty strange "hard colors" at Pier999 - Watch4beauty is getting worse - much worse..
And as a vids fan it's down right BAD.....we've had discussions about some site a bit to much art - for vids this site is now worse than some art exhibition with some snobs commenting lines and colors...and how much this looks like Picasso.......jeez.
This is not even softcore - If I'd want material like this, I could go to an art museum....sad with the potential/models...

Bottom Line:
This is the solo site of the cute Czech Redhead Ariel who has previously had sites under the names of Piper Fawn and Faith Lightspeed but it was at sites like Teendreams, Teenrotica and Twistys where she grabbed my attention and has become one of my favourite models in recent years so when I noticed the price of this site had been reduced by 10 bucks I couldn’t resist signing up especially with the added incentive of gaining discounts to the company’s other sites. The earliest content on the site dates from September 2007 when Ariel would have been 23 and with regular updates over the years has built up into a fair sized collection for a solo site although weighted heavily in favour of photos which suits me fine. Currently there are 415 photo sets and 41 videos and this seems unlikely to grow as there have been no new updates since April 11 of this year.
The navigation is fairly basic with the content just being split up into 4 categories, nude art, back stage, real life and friends galleries. You just have to go through each category in date order, 8 updates per page, and continually click next to go to the next 8 updates and so on, there’s no way to search for only photos or videos. The main focus of interest for me was the nude art section which is where you will find her professional photo shoots. You’ll find a good variety of locations ranging from studio shoots to stunning outdoor settings. There were probably too many boring plain nude shoots and not enough of clothing and lingerie for my liking but overall I quite enjoyed the high quality pictures. The content is also very tame and doesn’t go beyond nude posing, in fact there were very few shoots that I would consider sexually arousing, you certainly won’t come across any masturbation or toy use here. To be honest I’ve found the content I’ve collected of Ariel from almost every other site where I’ve seen her hotter and more exciting than anything I saw here. If you like to delve into the day to day life of the model then there’s plenty of that kind of stuff here too in the real life category where you can follow Ariel on vacation or on nights out partying as well as a load of behind the scenes back stage features all of which don’t really interest me.
I don’t see any signs that Ariel is still involved with the site, no interaction like a diary, blog or cam shows and there has been no activity in the forum since December 2010 so in summary all you have here is an archived collection of photos and videos no longer being updated. Probably worth a month at the current price if you’re a fan of the model and don’t mind the extreme softcore nature of the content.
