If you doubt yourself...

'If you doubt yourself... then go ahead and wear something else'...

)...It's strange, apparently getting the jackpot also turns every model into the same guy... Not that I'm complaining though, the guys over at Aussiebum seem to have quite a superb selection of models to choose from ... You can check out more Aussiebum hotness over at their official youtube page... oh, and also special thanks to Rob from WayoutWest.TV for giving me a head's up as usual ...

Daniel Erthal

Now here's a blast from the past that I really haven't thought about for quite some time...

But seeing as I was still in a mood for Brazilian beauty, I figured how could I possibly forget the gorgeous one himself from Rio... 26 year-old actor/model Daniel Erthal.

Perfection ...

These shots were taken way back in 2006 (it might have been even earlier, seeing as it's been quite a while)... But this amazing photo session with photographer Fernando Torquatto appeared first appeared on Paparazzo and basically floored me at the time.

Gorgeous Daniel debuted in his acting career doing a short stint back in 2004 on a Brazilian telenovela (soap opera) titled Da Cor del Pacado... He subsequently went on to do a couple more series' from 2006 onward, but (from what I gather from his IMDb profile) he hasn't really acted much since 2008 ...

Fortunately his time in modeling did manage to leave us a trail of beautiful gems.

Ah the Brazilian landscape, truly a feast for the eyes indeed...

Portrait of Brazilian Beauty

The nation of Brazil is part of an exclusive club. As one of the few nations on earth with the equator crossing directly through, it tends to boast exceedingly warm temperatures pretty much all year round...

So to me, it's no surprise really that the inhabitants of this tropical nation might turn out as equally hot as their country's geographic location and climate...

Actually fine... maybe it doesn't really make sense why Brazilians like Cadi Cunha here are just naturally hot, but I gave it a shot anyway ...

You may remember this beautiful São Paulo native from a previous post I made a couple months back. He's since allowed me to post a couple more shots of him, and I thought these were fantastic.

Just Beautiful... I can't say for certain whether Cadi has ever done any serious modeling, but it's more than apparent he'd be a natural . Cadi currently has a page open on Flickr where you can check out a lot more of his shots... and of course his photography (featuring the gorgeous Brazilian landscape and some of his close friends).

Adorable Attribute +9

I'm a total softy at heart so of course I find these shots I to be beyond ultra-cute...

If I didn't know better, I'd mistake these two for a couple ... Oh, and telling just from the arm, the guy reclining is insanely built (quite hot)...

Too adorable... For words...

These two last guys are on a fishing trip I believe... There's a couple more to the set with the rest of their buddies, but of course, these ones are my favorites ...

Breath-taking British Beauty

Initially I wanted to describe this guy as handsome, but yeah... wow ...

May I reiterate... wow...Granted I've seen a lot of gorgeous faces in my day (well in the past year at least )... but this guy's portrait shot is simply awe-inspiring...

Introducing 22 year-old British beauty from Dorset, England, professional model Dan J.... Dan has been working in the modeling industry for a couple years now, and as you can tell from some of these shots, he's obviously had the pleasure of working with some of the UK's best... (Mark Leighton, Nick Andrews and Gary Holmes seem to come tom mind ...)

And from the looks of things, the face seems to come with a complement bonus...

The total package indeed... Classy, hot, and sexy (oh and British)... Could you really ask for more ?

Funfoto Perfection...

In a word.... red-hot...

Ok, so maybe technically that's two, but let's just call it one for arguments sake. Funfotoguy has really outdone himself with this capture. Just four perfect, perfect shots of a guy who could easily pass for a model/actor. Amazing indeed...

And yes... I believe my ever-rotating set of wallpapers may have to welcome a new addition ...

Baja Beauty

Yet another beauty from just south of the border... south of the California border to be exact.

Introducing 19-year old model/artist/actor Sergio J. hailing from Baja, California... Sergio is currently building up his portfolio, and shot not too long ago with powerhouse Mexican photographer Moises Tapia.

Although when this shoot took place the sky was somewhat overcast, as far as I can tell the temperature was indeed quite warm and humid (to say the least)...
