MODELLING is a tough industry and the next generation of wannabe catwalk strutters got a taste of it at Booval yesterday.

The pack of 12 Tamblyn Young Model Discovery entrants was cut back to just four finalists yesterday ready to strut their stuff at Brisbane Sebel in October.

Raven-haired Raceview beauty Jaclyn Fellows said she was thrilled to make it through.

“Nothing like this is easy you just have to give it your best shot,” Jaclyn said.

“You have to be in the right frame of mind but I was lucky enough to have a great bunch of friends supporting me.”

The 19-year-old said she hoped modelling would take her far - ideally to Milan for a shoot with Vogue's legendary photographer Steven Meisel.

“That would be an absolute dream come true,” she said.

“But I am open to anything.”

But Jaclyn faces some stiff competition from three other sassy young things including Townsville girl Bria Corporal who travelled almost 1400km just to take her shot.

“I have wanted to be a model since I was little,” 15-year-old Bria said.

“When you are out there all eyes are on you - it's such a confidence builder.”

Tamblyn Models CEO Pam Tamblyn said the senior models standard was extremely high.

“We have four gorgeous girls,” she said.
