You definitely are a very pretty girl, however pouting does not suit your face.
Considering your height, you have little to no chance of runway work. You could try Television and commercial modelling, maybe leading into limited photographic work.
If you want to know whether or not you will make it in the modelling world go to a couple of agencies and just ask. If they tell you that you need training and they say they will pay for it, it means you are in, because they feel they will make money back on their investment. If they tell you to pay for their courses, then they are just taking you for a ride, and don't really think you will go far.
Either way be prepared to be told the truth. And if you aren't what they are looking for, you will have to accept it.
Please don't let unscrupulous people take advantage of you.
And don't ever do nude or bikini work until you have already built up a reputation with other work and have full professional portfolio.
Also realise that you may not succeed, so be on the look out for other things that you would enjoy...being a model is not the only thing you can do.

You can try to get an agency, however if you are only 4'11" then runway and fashion modeling are almost definitely out of the question. Most models are between 5'9" and 6' tall. You may be able to do print ads for catalogs, but you would need an agency to represent you before you do anything else.

You are pretty, but at 4'11" you would not be able to be a fashion model, but you could do adverts for things like make up, hair .. etc. Look out for auditions and you live in the right place already
Good luck!

You're pretty short and too young. Wait a few years, you might grow taller. Most agencies in my home place of Dublin insist a model is at least 5'7.

Having a Dream
When you look at the web site Girly has suggested, barbizon, you may see that they have your type!
Your size may go as a child model, yet, best take a parent with you. As far as I know there are model schools, which charge tuition, and agencies. The agencies may or may not have a customer who needs your type right away. It is best to get a portfolio with professional looking photographs (about 8x11) of yourself. It is a tough business since so many want to be a model.
Yet, you may fulfill your dream.
As to growing tall: It has been my observation that young people who do not go to bed by nine, do not grow much. The young person (teenagers) grow mainly before midnight/ around midnight. They also may need 9 hours of sleep a night. I have watched boys growing after their mom had quit their night job and came home earlier so that she could get them to bed. This may sound ridiculous to some, yet, it is certainly worth a try to go to bed sooner. Also fresh food plays a role, preferably organic.
Here some more web sites for child modeling from the Internet. I have not tried any nor do I know anything about them. Your parents may want to help you get more information.

The pedophiles here can look at your pictures all day, and it won't change an important fact: what you look like at 13 is no indication of what you will look like when you are an adult. You're going to have to wait and see. Take good care of yourself, be healthy, and see what happens when you are older.

i'm so sorry to be the only to inform you this given that i understand how a lot it need to suck to listen to, however except you're five'7 or taller, the possibilities of you fitting a V.S mannequin are very narrow. they simply don't seem to be seeing the cosmetic in us shorter ladies but however someday they'll. hold ballet regardless that and keep away from junk meals. you will have to reduce it out to your lifestyles totally. and lighten your bread and soda consumption. and there you pass appropriate frame. additionally drink lots water and endeavor day-to-day to stick toned.

You need to be taller. 4'11" is a bit to short.
The modeling world is looking for tall girls to flaunt their clothing and I don't think that they really care for your age.
