WIP - need some CC please

(cross posting from NS)
Decided to start going through some of my unfinished work and try to complete some. This one is my attempt to do something other than fantasy =) Everything was rendered with standard flat light and I worked at the volumetric lighting effect and shadows postwork. I'm pleased with how it came out in the background but not sure if it is quite right on her skin, specifically her thigh? Also this is a relatively complicated border for me, trying to expand my style so please let me know if it works (or doesn't) and what could be tweaked.

The working title on this was "the bounty hunter" but it doesn't seem to fit, she's got more of a first response team / hunting a killer feel to her IMO so any ideas for a title would be appreciated.

Looking to flesh out my gallery some, so I'd like to tweak this one good.. so hit me hard!

04-25 Version 2 : Combined TAC and NS feedback and softened her hair, fixed two right hand fingers that were bent odd, added glints and highlights / shadows to the guns and glints to her outfit, added a strong highlight to the glasses, tried to soften shadow on her right thigh, also added a "heads up" style grid to her glasses... how does that all look?

Used the title Pretty Poison my hubby suggested... I'm not really liking it but nothing comes to mind *sigh*

Version 2 click me!

The curved fingers on her right hand (holding the gun in the air, the middle and ring fingers) have a strange... indent? in them.

Does she have a tattoo on her belly? It looks like there's supposed to be something there, but I can't tell. (Note: slightly colorblind, and it looks kind of like a smudge; someone else might not have the same "is there or isn't there" reaction)

i see the fingers yep.. and yeah the skin mat I chose has a tattoo on her belly, it was a cute flower that ended up not showing so much in the finished position *sigh* I liked the whole bad ass chick with guns who had a cutsie tattoo..

I really don't see anything to be hyper critical about. The lighting looks good, the shading on her skin looks kind of dirty but I like that effect. The guns look flat though, maybe there should be more of a glint on the guns and soften up the edges since it looks like she's partially in the shadows right? With a hard light? Her guns needs more highlighting and maybe more of a glint on her glasses.

I like the shagginess of her hair, it looks stringy but soft and supple doesn't look appropriate to killing people so it looks great =D Hella nice job, Temp! Glad to see you posering it more, I so enjoy seeing your pieces.

Wow, Temp! I really am loving the skin on her... I want to actually touch her. Its so smooth.

The only thing that is still bugging me on the new one, is her foot thats over the background looks almost embedded into it. Like it bevels around her shoe... which I guess could be prefrence... So, I will just go crawl back into my poser haven and shush. :)

Oooh, I like the added highlights. The right gun looks great, the left gun - the white looks kind of blobbish. If that makes sense. I'd ease up the opasity...opacity...whatever of the highlights on the left handed gun. =D
