I live alone so I have no models :-) Time delay to get in pic. The things we endure for a challenge
Bumped contrast, adjust curves and HSB, resized and sharpened. I doubt this will do well but maybe a few will chuckle.

Great idea. Unfortunately your make up artist ruined the photo for you. If the tomato sauce is actually supposed to be blood it shouldn't be that smeared and it shouldn't have the light bouncing off it on his throat. A great attempt and shows geat imagination. Good luck
This isn't a very appealing image. I'm not really sure what it's suposed to be. Is that suposed to be blood? If so, it doesn't look very much like blood...kind of looks like the guy was eating spaghetti and missed his mouth. Or maybe barbeque or something. Anyway, the background elements are also a bit distracting. There is a horizontal line cutting right through his head in the background. Maybe if he were trying to pay attention to what he was doing (eating) rather than looking directly into the camera, it might help too. The 3 different leafy/floral patterns in the photo kind of clash with each other. The leaves on the plate, the leafy things on the blue couch, and the flowers on the pillow above don't blend so well.
Focus though is really good, it shows a lot of detail, even wrinkles in the peas and shirt. Lighting is also decent. Just not my cup of tea, nothing personal. ~Heather~
