Those pictures totally helped me out!
Yes INBF, they go into WNBF at world level if I am on par with the one you mean.....www.exercisegroup.com or
http://www.inbf.net? That would be the best choice although again, they do give a chunk of your score on facial beauty so in this case you make sure to get some really good MAC make up and make sure you can do a hell of a 'magazine look' job on and you are set. I mean you do want to do this with any show but these guys DO have a magazine so that plays into things, they want people who will be printable so the winners have to have a good look as well as nice and tight lean physique.
I think you are facially beautiful so you don't have an issue, it just sucks that we have to be subject to that with all the work we put toward our body!
OKay AAAANYWAY, going into the contest knowing all this puts you ahead of the game and gives you the ability to fully prepare in all aspects including good old politics.
So with that, choose colors which make you look pretty, make sure your posing is not too jagged or edgy but do get very lean and work on clean rear end - not to say you don't already have, but they do pay attention to the female a bit extra, so also choose a suit which positively accentuates your upper chest area, so if you need filling you get that, if you need underwire you get that, if you are busty you definatley go for the regulation style suit.
Pay attention to hair, go feminine but do pull back from face, they want to see face!
Keep heals together in posing, they will briefly go over what they want for you when walking on stage, the day of show - incudes direction and which X to hit when etc.
Never rush, always smile big and always be very confident, so much so that you stand out and they really see you, make eye contact to all the judges when smiling, even wink to the audience and camera men if the moment calls for it, stand tall.
Practice this now, go to a show as soon as you can, maybe the one you want to enter, then enter the year after, this way you can see exactly who enters and how they choose among those entrants. This helps with learning.
PLan your training toward the show, diet too, look at your weaknesses and really address them.
Balance and symmetry is your goal for physique.
Also know, friends and family can waiver in support during the ride.....if not then you are truely blessed but if so, don't be too shocked and keep focused anyway. This will affect your social life quite a bit.
And bodyfat can range between 4-9 percent. Some shows have 10% but normally its lower.
You have great shape and tone but would want to work on conditioning of joints and connective tissue so it can keep up with the muscle strength and growth then you wuold work on muscle gain for a spell of 4 months or so then start to work into leaning slowly about 4-6 months out.
