Natalie Gulbis, rapidly becoming the 'Anna Kournikova' of American ladies' golf (i.e. gorgeous but not very good) in the Sports Illustrated magazine's swimsuit issue.......... except it's not a swimsuit - it's body paint...........

No way is that body paint. Look at the shadows. Not really all that pretty either, Deano. Seen better hanging around the Monarch Hotel last night.

I vote for paint, the shadows are also painted on. Check out google images, body paint. Esp. Willie Nelsons beard. Too funny.

Now i'm no expert in the fields of photography or modelling....but the whole image appears fabricated to me - there is nothing natural about her or the body shape or face ?

call me old fashioned...but i prefer images a la Fiesta Reades Wives quality....

Millhouse

I do not find her attractive in any way whatsoever. Look at her left hand, I've seen more petite welders.

I have studied that picture until my eyes hurt, she has no nipples???

Boomhauer

Thats what struck me too, which is what made me skeptical of it being body paint but the string part of the bikini does not look like fabric either.

Patsy Stoned

here you go boys...how it was done and nipples in view.... Sports illustrated obviously photoshopped the nipples out ....Say thank you Patsy :-DD

Would you say no?

Just Google her, and click on 'Images'............. you'll see.......

Thank you Patsy.............. (couldn't see any nipples though)....... you can faintly see them in picture 3 of my original link:

I refer my honourable friend to the answer I gave a moment ago............

Definitely paint.......... (cf: Patsy).

This is my favourite pic:

What a shite pic, they might as well have drawn the thing it's so photoshopped

Millhouse

Let's put it another way, I wouldn't try my luck with her at 10pm - she is a 2am-er. Seriously, I don't find her attractive at all.
