Um... no offense, but that's not exactly scary...

First off, don't hold the knife like that. Holding it like that just shows you don't know how to use it. Keep it low and loose. Remember, the key word for fighting with a knife is "smooth."

Secondly... a shower/bathtub isn't exactly a scary place to pose. Try somewhere dark... someplace with lots of shadows. An alleyway at night would be good, or even a dark room with a single, low light coming from another room. Remember, you want to be scary. To be scary, you can't be black, you have to be dark. The difference between black and dark is that black is just ugly. Blackness is gore and blood everywhere, and it isn't the least bit scary. Darkness, on the other hand, is what you don't know. It's the things in the shadows that you can't see, things you can't understand.

Thirdly, change your pose. That body stance isn't the least bit threatening, and neither is the look on your face. Ninety-nine percent of the time all a mad look does is make you look angsty. I know people who are actually dangerous, and I know that when their faces get cold and calm, you want to leave them alone. As for your pose, you need to relax. Don't brandish the knife like that. Stand up. Lean lightly against something. Hold the knife loosely, like have it dangling from your hand at your side.

Also, you should have picked a better blade... I think that's a kitchen knife of some kind, but I'm not sure... I recommend you check out Smokey Mountain Knife Works. You should be able to pick up a nice blade that just screams "FUCK OFF!" for about $20 (just remember, usually the cheaper ones may look good, but they don't have anywhere near the quality of some of the more expensive ones. You get what you pay for.). One thing: just because a knife has a big blade doesn't mean it's more lethal. Personally, I'd be more scared of the guy with the 6" gravity knife then I would be of the guy brandishing a Scottish claymore. Why? Because smaller knives are more manueverable, and you can really fuck somebody up with 6" inches of steel. I know a guy who was in the Navy SEALs, and he showed me how to properly slit a person's throat, and he explained that "the best knives for killing are about 6-8 inches long, double-edged with a serrated back, and not too thick and not too wide." Straight-razors are good, cause they just scream "psycho" in a way no other knife can, while gravity knives and butterflies speak of someone who's had actual training/experience in fighting (and maybe even killing) with a knife. But my guess is you want something that looks big and scary, as opposed to practical. If you want to combine those two for something that's both big, mean, and effective, try getting either a Smith and Wesson boot knife (they make two kinds, get the bigger one. S&W makes damn good knives.) or a Frost Cutlery Marine Combat knife. If you want something that looks just fucking psychotic, get a straight razor. Trench knives can look pretty fucking psychotic too, but only in the right hands. If you want something that's just big and mean looking, get a bowie or a machete.

And lastly... your outfit. Not scary, my dear. Goths are some of the least dangerous people I have ever met in my entire life. They're all show. I know, I've tested plenty of them. They talk a good fight, but they're always weak when they put their spikes on. I have yet to see an exception to that rule. You see, real psychos don't advertise the fact that they're different in any way. That's what so scary about them. They blend in, they look as normal as the next person. At least until they strike, anyways. If you want to look scary, don't sit there glaring at the camera clutching "a REAL KNIFE!". Instead, kick back, relax, and show us that you love your blade and it's knack for making all the bad people go away. THAT would scary.

Ehm wow... ... That was... Not all that amusing... Thanks for the tips and all... And flaunting your knowledge... But that just made you seem like a know it all.... 'cause... I do this for the art... It's ARTISTIC... I wasn't trying to be intimidating. It was abstract and not supposed to all make sense but make you wonder why the hell a chick dressed in a gothic way is sitting in a bathtub, with a knife posed in the way it is in this peticular picture... Everyone has their own opinions I suppose. I guess you think this is something to just sit and laugh at because to you it's dumb or whatever... To me... It's art.
