Man Candy Day: Alexey Veter, Anton Antipov & Jarek Pietka

This week my Man Candy day is devoted to the men from the cold... people always talk about how sexy it's a latin man, but there is who likes also the ice blue eyes and the pale skin of the men for the East Europe. And so I picked up three very different men but with the same origins: Alexey is from Moscow (Russia), and I bet that many of my friends already know his catlike moves, if not his name; Anton actually lives in New York but his origins are from Belarus; and Jared is a promising new face of the fashion industry from Poland.



















Bendable Russian model Alexey Veter hails from Moscow. He's 25-years-old, hot and knows how to take care of himself - he's big into boxing, Russian-style.

“I like swimming, vodka, Moscow, dance, finance, Polina Griffits, Egypt, ocean, Putin, music, Sweet November, red caviar, yoga, water, Deepest Blue, smiles, John Faulz, Alsou, Russia, crazy ideas, sea, Christina Aguiler, etc. I like photography as an art. All my photos depict inner-me, my ideas, my feelings... I would be glad to work as a model, a creator.... I will be glad to talk with you about everything what you want :)”



















Anton Antipov was born on May 6th, 1983 in Bobruisk, Belarus. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to New York. While attending college and working at A|X, he was approached with several modelling offers. After submitting his photographs to several agencies, he signed with BOSS models.

Anton has done runway work, and has appeared in a published ad campaign for the Italian jewelery company, Pomellato. He also starred in a coffee table book by famed photographer Kal Yee, and has been featured on the websites Allamericanguys and Sixpacknow.



















Jarek Pietka is 19 years old model from Warsaw, Poland. This 6'1" (185cm) looker with green eyes is represented by KS Management. Now, he walks the runways for big names as Calvin Klein, Frankie Morello, Dsquared and Gucci.

Jared Pietka appeared on Issue #1.09 of Toni Perez and Victor Soria’s online magazine Vanity Teen. After his appearance in Contributing Editor, he looks better than ever, thanks to Zuzanna Krajewska and Bartek Wieczorek.

I think Belarus wins this hands down.

Plus, people that like Putin? Just confirms that pretty doesn't equal clever.

Yes, Anton is for sure the most handsome of all of them. I like Alexey catlike poses, and I think Jarek will grow up well, but he is till a bit too young. Elisa

Yeah, but the poses are really the photographer's... so there's the art, really, the model just makes it happen.

And it would have been a closer race if Alexey hadn't commented on politics.

Jarek... no, not into craddle-robbing. :)

Anton Antipov è decisamente il migliore dei tre! :-P
Già tossivo di mio per l'influenza...che cavolo è estate!...ed appena ho visto quel faccino...UAAAA...un bel respiro ed è passata la catastrofe! *LoL*

ciao

You are right, a good photographer is essential for the shot. Sometime the model highten the result, but it's not often that a beautiful face (or body) is enough. On the contrary, a good shot can make beautiful even what beautiful is not. Elisa

Potremmo metterlo in bottiglia come rimedio per tutti i mali ;-) Elisa

Alexey Veter is one hell of a sexy guy.
I love that first image ♥

I saw it the first time on the male submission art site.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2009-07-13 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, also I saw it there and browsed the net to find the name of the model. Elisa

*sigh*
You've made my morning :). I have a fond weakness for Eastern European models.

Now you've made me blush *lol*.

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2009-07-13 09:16 am (UTC)(link)
Ahah, so you are one of them (people who like the men from the cold)! I know that they hide in the shadow somewhere ;-) Elisa

[identity profile] yachay.livejournal.com 2009-07-13 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
They're not my type when it comes to looks (God, I feel embarrassed to admit I actually do pay attention to looks in some level.), but thank you for the Alexey-pics! I've always had a thing for russian men ;)
And it's nice to finally get to know the name for this guy, I remember seeing that cat-picture before in some of your previous posts.

The net is strange, sometime a picture is more famous than the subject. I'm always glad when I'm able to give a name and a little background to a face. Elisa

You are welcome Katrina. Also I like the chiseled features, and alwyas had a penchant for pearly skin. Elisa

Yummy. That's all I have to say.

[identity profile] daisiemae-1.livejournal.com 2009-07-14 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Whew! Thanks for the eye candy Elisa! :) I am particularly fond the way he looks in those short shorts! *fans self*

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2009-07-14 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
It's enough ;-) Elisa

[identity profile] elisa-rolle.livejournal.com 2009-07-14 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, Jarek with the denim short is rather cute. Elisa
