Description "Elizabeth Short"
This was for a Tafe assignment where we were to produce 6 B/W images to tell a story.
(These are the images I took on my digital camera)

My theme was the unsolved "Black Dahlia" murder, where a 22 yr old woman was found brutally murdered. Her body had been cut in half, with her face cut from ear to ear in a mocking smile.

This is my "morgue" shot after she was murdered.
Makeup was done by myself.

Model: Carlee ( [link] )

Amazing job!

My prosthetics didn't work out so hot when I tried this out

But you did an excellent job with the makeup, the shot, and the model.
All of it comes together for an absolutely stunning shot.
Braviseme'!

Thanks. If you look at images of the real black dahlia, in the morgue shot, she is actually looking straight at the camera
