Darker pics usually don't score well on here, but I think this just may be an exception! Congrats on a killer image! :)

Eerie and filled with fun but depriving the viewer a hint of any features. Outside of this the paint job stands out and hat and background add more to the mystery. This image is certain to invite that bell curve. I am bumping to 6 because an image that entertains is always welcome in a challenge. Bumping to 6

The skin on your neck is so awesome. The rest of the shot is a little too busy for me.

i don't know anything about portraiture, so i'm using your image as a guinnea pig as to what i think i would or wouldn't do in this situation, as well as what i notice and get out of your image.

my first reaction is that this is just way to busy to work as a portrait. but, then again, how else would you convey what you are after? the necklace, though, should go, being that you had to crop part of it anyway.

Without the eyes, this falters badly. The composition is eye-catching as are the colors - even the busy background design works. It is just too macabre without the eyes. Sorry.
