2018 ODO "Blush Rule" Reminder

Just as a reminder, following is this year's "Blush Rule" copied from the 2018 ODO brochure. The rule has NOT changed from last year. If you have ANY question at all as to whether your entry is acceptable, or not, you still have time to email the head judge at hmgroth@gmail.com for a clarification. Please do NOT wait until the day of the show!

A. Blush Rule
The ODO is a “family friendly” show and contest. Accordingly,
the head judge, in private consultation with the modeler, will
request removal from the hall of any entry deemed inappropriate
or offensive to generally acknowledged standards of taste and
acceptability. For example, but not limited to, any model-subject
that depicts scenes of bondage, sexual intent, or pogrom displays
of human suffering is impermissible. Also, any figure model naked
from the waist-down or any female figure model with exposed nipples are not permitted. This includes nose art. The ODO head judge's decision is final. Hence, if in doubt about the eligibility of your model, please do not hesitate in sending an image of your model-
subject to the head judge listed above under “Contacts” for a ruling in advance of the show. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
