Creepy Model Close-Ups

The Aktionist Vulture Editorial is Strange and Somber

'The Aktionist' Vulture editorial graces the publication's #4 issue. The photo series stars Fusion model Paul Boche, who is captured by photographer Sergio Mejia's lens. Paul channels a disturbed soul in this strange and somber portrait series.

Sporting wild hair and dark under-eye makeup by hair and beauty artist Rebecca Robles, the model transforms into a creepy sight. Wardrobe stylist Susan Walsh dresses Paul in a series of graphic tees, fitted suits and dramatic headwear accessories from designer labels that include Costume National, Rochambeau and Ports 1961 among many others.

The Aktionist Vulture fashion story shows off Paul Boche's dark side. The model smirks and grimaces at the camera, channeling a wild man who seems to be disturbed.
