Shot using a black backdrop and edited simply with dramatic smoothing. Hoped to acheive an erotic/artistic image of what is deemed to be a rather seedy occupation.

Seem very artifical, some people love that, but unfortunately I don't, and I'm the one voting right now. Giving you a 5, hope you do less neatimage next time, cause this could have been something else! :) Good luck
Too much softening (NeatImage?). All the detail in the hair has been lost, and the skin has begun to take on a plastic appearance. Other than that, the composition and lighting are very good.
nice idea, but way, way, way too much neat image (or whatever tool you used for noise reduction). the loss of texture really takes away from the image. hope you have fun reshooting it ;-)
Beautiful shot. The only thing that bothers me a bit is the tattoo is not clearly visible and looks odd at the angle shown. However, the entire photograph is gorgeous.
Ouch, too much NeatImage/NoiseNinja! The model's hair has completely lost it's texture. This makes her skin look nice, so your best bet would have been to manually mask out her hair before applying the filter. Also, I think that catching her looking into the camera would have produced a more powerful image.
the neat image has really destroyed this...her hair looks like plastic and it's more akin to digital art than photography...having said that, the composition is good...
I am not a fan of the white eyeliner as it looks like her eye is actually half open and wierd
Sorry to be so negative, but this had great potential 6
Best: Looks like the 21st century's version of "Goldfinger"...love the hair...
Worst: The title is a bit redundant isn't it...pole should be vertical...
