Review by Duke

Intro

Solo model Ariel is also known as Piper Fawn or Faith Lightspeed as she has performed and had sites under those different names. As for this site she refers to it as the "Real Life of a Real Nude" and it's been around since early 2008. Generally solo girl sites come in three varieties: amateurs, pornstars, and models. Ariel's fits mostly into the third category as she has glamour style picture galleries and videos of her in all sorts of indoor and outdoor settings. There are amateur elements to the site as well with content sections dedicated to backstage material and real-life activities. The guest tour layout is exactly the same as the member's area so visitors can get a feel for what she and her content style is all about from the tour previews.

The Pros

Beautiful Redhead European Model, Solo Glamour Collection.

Ariel's red hair and European background are her defining characteristics. She is gorgeous and she seems to really enjoy performing in these solo glamour style shoots. The shoots in the nude art section have nice artistic flair with a mix of settings including different indoor and outdoor shoot locations. The majority of content items are photo galleries with videos interspersed throughout the archive. After looking through the collection for a while I have to say her hair really stands out and the site is well suited for surfers who are into redheads.

High-Res Photos & Videos, Nice Viewing/Download Options.

High resolution content isn't something that's normally associated with solo model sites but for Ariel the content quality and formatting are a real positive. The pictures are ultra high-res with images topping out at about 5600x3700. Multiple pictures sizes are offered with online viewing and zip files both available for each size. Newer movies have HD WMV and QT along with more standard quality choices. In-browser Flash streaming is also available.

Real-Life & Backstage Content Sections, Fan Forum Interaction.

The personality features on the site include Backstage and My Real Life content sections which contain mostly photos and some videos. There is also a Fans Forum where Ariel does a pretty good job of posting replies to feedback from users. Even though in the weeks leading up to this review there has been lagging activity her responses have been very active and steady as I looked back through the logs.

Other Good Stuff:

Professional site design with consistent updates to all the different content sections. All content items are clearly date-stamped showing when they were added to the site.
Gallery zip files and downloadable movie files have clear file size and spec information posted. Picture galleries have PDF downloads available in addition to zips.

The Cons

No Dedicated Videos Section to Browse, Not Many Videos Overall.

The one main issue I had with the navigation and site layout is that there isn't a dedicated section for viewing just the video shoots. Instead they are spread out through the various content sections and it takes time to locate them. As an informational note surfers should be aware that most videos are short at less than 5 minutes so picture content is the main focus of things for Ariel with videos as secondary material.

Fairly Slow Download Speed, Limited Download Manger Use.

The download speed is fairly slow on Ariel's site. For standard browser downloads on my 20MB connection I got around 300KB/sec. Those who use download managers will want to note that using IDM I got only 1 channel capability with no pause/resume feature. The speed impacts the galleries as well since the high-res zip files can be sizable.

Minor Negatives:

Navigation could be enhanced. Browsing the different sections is limited to page after page browsing and the keyword search is hit-and-miss.
Older videos have more average quality and specs without the high-definition level available.
The videos contain background music which some surfers may not enjoy.

Bottom Line

Ariel is a beautiful European redhead with high-res glamour content along with behind-the-scenes stuff too.

Ariel's site is one that overlaps into several different niches so it has appeal that goes beyond just the solo model angle. Fans of redheads, high-resolution content, and glamour/softcore shoots could find what Ariel has available appealing.
