Can I make some constructive remarks about your studio lighting. The lighting on the face appears very flat and even, at least it does on my browser, the original may be better. I can't see any detail in the hair and for my taste I would prefer a stop less on the back ground lighting. Perhaps a soft box to the right of the models face about two feet off the ground, set 1-2 stops above the left hand light on her face (yes I am assuming you lit the model with two soft boxes from what I can tell from the shaddows on the face, plus a light on the background). I think your Goth model series is fascinating and the nice thing about repetition like this is that we can all see lots of progress in each session you post. Also lighting is a very personal thing, but for your Goth subjects soft flattering lighting seems somewhat counter to the models style. I would love to see you shoot some Goths in the studio with a single hard flash and see what you can do with that. sometimes challanging lighting brings out the best!!
