Tonight's episode of 'The Model Scouts' sees the final six contestants travel to Sydney to launch their careers at the Rosemount Australian Fashion Week.

The girls focus on castings for the fashion event, each of them hoping to get picked for the shows. A few of the contestants commented on their competition from the Australian models.

Ellen Flanagan said: "I think all the other Australian models look naturally toned, they obviously exercise and watch what they eat, but they are really casual about it. Some of them are really nice and some of them are what you expect in a moody model."

Aishling O'Connell also talked about how the Irish models were received at the castings: "Standing outside castings- just looking at all the other models. They all look you up and down and really examine your face. Every girl sees each other as competition. They are completely different to us, they are beautiful, gorgeous girls, long hair and tanned."

As well as attending castings for the fashion show, one of the girls is asked to attend a casting with top fashion magazine Marie-Claire Australia who think she would be a perfect fit for a fashion spread they are planning.

The episode also sees the girls pose for a beautiful beach photoshoot with top Australian fashion photographer Terence Chin.

Take a look at the photos here.

Watch 'The Model Scouts' tonight at 9pm on RTÉ Two.
