She'll need all the king's horses and all the king's men to put her back together again.
It reminds me of that one scene in the old The Silver Chair (Narnia) movie when Jill and Eustace are at school hiding.
Honestly, this one is terrifying (Probably because I have Apotemnophobia..)
Well, if she's a superhero she needs a name. Who has ideas?

When they say humans are made of mostly water I doubt they imagine this.
Poppies grow on disturbed ground. This makes sense.
Load More Replies...too much like the infected from the Last of Us. If you dont know what that is don't try finding out. It's not a good idea.
Love this one, everything right, the composition, the look and the make up. Very nice
Clarification: this is not sarcasm, I actually do enjoy it. I've never put a lit candle on me though, that would hurt.
Load More Replies...I love sticking my hand into candles on a candle warmer (ya know, like the hot plate you put it on and it heats it up cause it ain’t got a wick?)
That is so cool! At first I thought she had a twin, I am dumb sometimes.
Pretty sure the heart isn't anywhere near the shoulder...

Load More Replies...She is incredibly talented! I want to see more of her work. Her imagination is amazing!!!
I absolutely LOVE seeing young peoples' art! Such wonderful fresh perspectives! And SO creative!
She is very creative, only she is just getting some details wrong. Tiny things, but they are important. Sometimes the clothing, and the make up. She needs to be a bit bolder with the colours. These a very daring photos they jump out and that's the reason behind them. So go all the way use you're clothing and makeup to be part of it to make it whole. That's why #28 is exactly right everything fits and flows over in eachother. Beautiful!!
