Update, May 19 2010
Since I was planning on doing this review update this week anyway, I think it's only fitting to choose Eve's birthday, isn't it? 27 and as gorgeous as she's ever been since she started modeling at the tender age of 18. In fact she's never looked better than the last couple of years in my opinion.
Eight months after launch (three months prior to my original review), Eve Angel's official site has grown substantially, with the number of solo and lesbian videos and photosets (solo scenes still taking priority) up from an already, for a solo girl site, respectable 75 to currently 144 of each.
Meaning there's quite a lot of content to enjoy here. The only other place you'll find that much Eve Angel content in one place is the 21Sextury Network, which currently has pretty much exactly the same number of videos and photosets (from 2004-2010).
If you want Eve's best lesbian videos I have to say that Eve Angel Official isn't the place to look (an issue I also originally brought up in the cons below with a specific example). There are certainly some very decent ones to see here - all in 720p HD - but nothing that comes close to her performances in the many Viv Thomas movies she has done over the last 6-7 years, or her best 21Sextury scenes.
I love most of the solo videos at Eve Angel Official though, and I'm even more fond of the photosets.
So overall my feelings about this site remains that Eve fans shouldn't think twice about joining, while passing web surfers having their interest peeked by her beauty, might be better off starting with particularly her Viv Thomas work, if they want to see Eve at her girl on girl best.
Original Review
Pros
+ The gorgeous Hungarian Eve Angel has been one of my favourite solo and lesbian models for years, and thanks to DDF Productions, the company behind 1 By Day, Hands on Hardcore, DDF Busty and several other large sites, Eve now has a new official site.
+ The current number of videos and photosets at Eve Angel Official amounts to 75+, which is quite respectable for a site that's been online for less than three months.
Some of the initial content was recycled from her earlier appearances at some of the other DDF sites (that includes two hardcore b/g scenes from back before she switched to doing lesbian and solo content only, around seven years ago), but everything added since is brand new.
As you would expect if you're familiar with Eve's previous work, the site mixes solo masturbation and lesbian scenes, with Eve featured in every one so far (not always a given on solo model sites, some tend to throw in some sets without the main model). You can mostly expect the same fairly heavy glamour porn style that's also typical for the other DDF sites, and while I personally think they overdo it a bit on occasion (see the cons below), the style generally suits Eve and her usually almost or equally beautiful girlfriends very well.
+ And speaking of girlfriends, so far at Eve Angel Official, Eve has had the pleasure of entertaining herself with, among others, Monika Sweet (aka Jo, just about the only girl I currently rank higher than Eve on my list of favourite girl/girl models), Peaches, Eufrat, Sandra Shine, Mia Stone, newcomers Brandy Smile and Aleksa, plus several other babes.
There have also been unexpected appearances by American glamour babes Aria Giovanni and Jelena Jensen (probably stopping by as they were shooting for DDF Busty where they've both appeared, Aria quite a few times), although as neither of those two ladies really do anything beyond softcore glamour work, their videos and photosets with Eve here are just softcore posing with no actual sex. I certainly still appreciate seeing them together with Eve though.
+ 720p HD video (alongside several lower quality options) as on the other DDF sites. And Eve most certainly deserves to be admired in high-def. The photo content looks great as well at ~1330x2000 pixels, and photosets can of course be downloaded in zip files.
+ So far three content updates a week, which is a pretty decent pace for a solo girl site. The last few weeks the third weekly update has been a backstage photoset though, but of course that's not necessarily a bad thing at all for Eve fans.
You can also find a few extra candid photos on Eve's diary on the site, but in general you shouldn't go in expecting this to be one of those "personal" model sites with active message boards, a ton of candid content and all that. Eve Angel Official is just another opportunity to see Eve do what she does best, looking unbelievably hot having sex with her girlfriends and herself.
Cons
- The site can be a bit buggy (error prone) at times, with new content update pages sometimes remaining blank or links to the latest update redirecting to the previous one for the first day or so after a new update was supposedly added (the fact that it takes that long to fix is a bit troublesome though, as it sort of indicates that they aren't keeping a very good eye on things even though it's been a recurring problem), and there was even a day a few weeks ago where the entire content archive had gone missing for several hours.
These issues were mostly present the first 4-6 weeks after the site launched though (I joined around a week after launch), and they generally seem to have mostly, but not entirely subsided. In any case they are at worst temporary annoyances and certainly shouldn't keep you from joining the site if you like what you see.
Since it still happens on occasion it's enough to make me subtract a point from what I would otherwise have given in the navigation and design score though.
- As mentioned above, I personally feel the glamour style employed in some sets is a bit over the top.
That Eve and Jo video I mentioned above should have been the best thing ever for a huge fan of both girls like me (particularly as it was a 40 minutes two-parter where Jo spent the better part of the last ten minutes with a vibrator buried in her ass), but the gold outfits, high heels on the bed, heavy jewelery and almost as heavy makeup sort of gave it a 1990s vibe that I frankly found a bit distracting and slightly off putting (although certainly not to the extent that the scene didn't go straight into my permanent Eve and Jo collections, but overall it came nowhere near to being as great as the several scenes the two ladies have done together in a two very recent DVDs from Viv Thomas).
Fortunately the resident DDF Production stylists, or whatever those people are called, generally do a better (ie. slightly more discrete) job in most scenes at Eve Angel Official.
