I see what you were trying to show here, and even though I spend more time with artificial humans and animations, this real, living human in this real, living environment doesn't give me the feel of this woman being a deadly person.

Why? You might ask? Because this very scene has been played over and over and over so many times. You don't understand? Well, apparently, a tattoo and a gun must mean you're violent. Wow, real shocker. And oh look, we're going for the innocent act by making her put on makeup and look pretty and alluring. Way to play it original. And the two balloons hiding from camera are just...a big no no.

I'm not here to discourage you, though. This photography is good, the lighting right, and I'm positive you would get much more views if you took pictures of unique things. If you wanted to re-make this and go for a dangerous woman, then try to make her look like it's secret. And no, don't do the whole, 'Oh I'm in a skimpy dress and I have a gun hidden around my thigh' with a wink to the camera. Go over what's deadly in life, don't take from T.V. What is your greatest fear? Is it darkness? Well then, have a normal-looking woman stad near a mirror, wherein the reflection seems off... the best way to demonstrate danger is by fear, as common sense suggests. Use personal experiences from now on, it'll make photography much funner.
