Models featured on Terra.com.br/TheBoy

I’ll give Terra this: Lucas Resende at least looks a little different from the guys they typically trot out month after month. And by different I mean that November’s The Boy model is bit more muscular than usual and his facial features are much more masculine. But I am going to have to give Lucas [...]

I know - I’m also totally shocked that this month’s The Boy model from Terra is black. Shocked not for the simple fact he’s black, but over Terra actually acknowledging that people of African descent do in fact exist in Brazil. The last time they slipped and owned up to this was in mid 2007 [...]

Oh, the cruel irony. On the rare occasion that Terra gives us an unobstructed view of a model’s back side, he barely even has one. I’d like to say that Felipe Torretta more than compensates for that out front, but Terra thinks too damn much of itself to ever give us a glimpse at that. [...]

I’m going to go ahead and declare this the hottest The Boy layout Terra has ever produced. Actually, I’m not so sure I’d take it that far, but you’ll have to excuse my lapse of judgment since Edilson Nascimento is one model I’ve been lusting over for some time. In any case, he’s surely a [...]

He’s no Levy Christiano, but I’d still say that Caio De La Vega is a solid model from Terra. I’d also have to agree with Giovane from Seteventos that if Terra is going use models that fall short of their best efforts, they might as well get some amazing shots of him. This layout of [...]

Just in case anyone from Terra is wondering, I fully accept your apology for last month’s Vinícius Borges in the form of a Mr. Levy Christiano. The 22-year-old is the perfect example of the strict standards they usually uphold for their The Boy models. In so many words, he’s gorgeous. via seteventos.org

It’s a bit jarring to go from the utter sexiness that was Tiago Botega to this. Why Terra thought it would be such a good idea to feature a model with a bad acne problem is beyond me. I wouldn’t have found Vinícius Borges all that attractive anyway, but the skin problems certainly don’t help. [...]

It’s a good month to be a fan of Terra’s The Boy feature. Not only do they turn out a solid model in Tiago Botega, but they also revamped their entire website. As part of the revamp, both the standard and members-only photos have higher resolutions. And as always, those members-only photos are leaked to [...]

Is it just me or did Jonas Sulzbach have his nose done? It’s hard to tell since he appears to be fairly ethnically diverse (Brazilian/German/Japanese) and the nose could just the product of that mixing. I’m not trying to take anything away from the 22-year-old, but it’s the first thing I noticed. Just to [...]

I really like Terra’s model for March. 27-year-old Otávio Rauter is about as perfect as they come - as long as you don’t count the fact that his favorite movie is Patch Adams. It’s also nice to see a model for The Boy with a little color to him even if it’s only a tan. [...]

I’ve traditionally been hard on Terra Network’s The Boy for lacking diversity in the physical build and ethnic backgrounds of their models. Yet if they’re going to remain unresponsive to such criticisms, let their models at least resemble Thiago Rufinelli. I wouldn’t go as far as to call Thiago hot, but he sure is damn [...]

If Tiago Alves is any indicator of the type of model Terra is going to feature in 2008, you can let me off the bus right now.
