I dig this for its raw qualities, the press on nails, the makeup that stops. It looks like a still from a movie.

i really dont think the hat was neccessary, this would be a great photo without it. i also would have had the apint on all of the skin(neck and ear at least, maybe not the hand) good choice for nail color.

The lighting is fairly good, but doesn't fit with the story. For me, something is off with the hand positioning. Have the "claws" draw blood so they serve a purpose, or in a different position to support the tears. Right now those fingers aren't doing anything worthy of tears. Creative composition tho - good use of a position to suggest a diagonal line which adds more interest than a face-on shot.

My only comment is to have taken advantage of advanced editing and fixxed the fingernail that looks like it coming off.

strong image - I wonder if the shape of the face gets a little lost with the hat and the material ?

perhaps a bit of a stretch for a mask, but quite a dramatic shot
