Solve Sundsbo has done a good job. This is perhaps the best Victoria Beckham ed I've seen.

Thank you for the preview.

Solve did an amazing job with her,but i was wondering is there a chance you could scan the rest of Victoria's article and pictures?It is hands down best edit of her, and i have seen scans on some other fan blog of hers, but they are not as great as yours, so if you have time to scan the rest of it, it would be wonderful. kisses Lah

Wow, the two pictures by Meisel are interesting. And the title is cute, "The Devil of Retouch" ^_^

Many thanks for your comments, they are very appreciated!

At present I scan and post full sets at the earliest when the next issue is out. So I'll post Victoria's full set in a month, text pages were already posted.

Let me also point to the English summary of this issue. Unfortunately it's only an excerpt of the articles, and the English titles don't always go with the Russian ones, just look at the article on retouching. Literal translation is "Devil of Retouch", in the English summary listed as "The Human Retouch". And the literal translation for Victoria's ed. is "Victorian era" which makes more sense as a pun.
