Every picture tells a story

Just working with the light box, my Springfield XD 9mm, some jewels and props, which picture tells a more complete story?

1.

I think the second one tells more of a story, though both are great shots. Only comment I have is I wish the blood was thinner and not so much a jelly look a like.

Hey, I was making it up a I went along... What is a good blood substitute?

A bloody nose, lol im kidding of course, how about some of that fake blood you can get from a halloween store, especially around this time of year

If I may add my thoughts on these. They are meant soley as supportive comments and not negative in anyway.

The story looks to me as if you robbed a craft store and spilled red jello.

Try to use only those clear "diamonds" and substitute dark red dyed water thickened with sugar for blood.Maybe throw in a little bit of cash? A fancy watch?

And why is blood coming from the casing?

Actually all the jewels are real... I hear Karo syrup with red food dye works but I didn't have any available.
