First, the tattoo would limit your poses, but I can and have gotten around those if I really like a model.
Here is why you wouldn't hear from me. Everyone one of your bare stomach images have a shadow over one side of your or the other. Makes me think you are hiding something.

I probably would not contact you to do a shoot. While I do work with models who shoot nudes, when I see 44 images and probably 34 (without counting) are nudes, it makes me think you are a 1 trick pony.
Honesty, I don't understand why you need more than 20 total images in a port. I can promise I am not going to spend that much time as I skim through profiles looking for models.
Why I would not contact you - your profile says you are 110 years old. That is a double edged sword. The models I work with I need to be at least 18 (personal moral reasons). I also have to be real careful with models 30+ since the girls also do personal appearances and sign autographs in the general public.

Ouch! I'll be getting bikini pics soon. I'll bookmark this thread and come back to get you're opinion then

My projects tend more toward girl next door natural looks. That said, there are many who like the 2 basketball in a bra look, which is why I said you will probably continue to have success.
How many images do you need of a hand bra and bottom cleavage? I would shoot with you because I like your overall look. I would never do the bottom cleavage shot with you because of the obvious boob job.
One "hand bra" image is more than enough. You have 50 images with ALOT of repetition. If you have that many images, they should be variety to show the scope of your talent. Plain English: 1 or 2 images of a style is enough.
I would put you in the 50% category (60-70% had the boob job been a little more realistic).

You only have 1 swimwear picture and it is at an odd angle. Your measurements of 37, 26, 37 give me pause. Get something better in the swimwear style in your port and come back.

I will tell you that I am not an exact model - I am merely an insane girl with a camera phone.
You have a nice face structure. If you contacted me from a casting call, I would have you take some candid swimwear and send it to me before I scheduled you.

I would need to see the swimwear before I gave you a rating. I do like your look with the natural hair color. The multi color hair would not work in my projects.

Thanks!
Honestly, I personally don't like swimwear because:
1. I can't swim. At all.
2. Self pity
However,
3. I'll put a swimwear image up eventually.

I would be more intrigued by your port without the swimwear than what you have:
This image has you stretched out and at an angle that doesn't really show you:
Then you have a bikini like this, which unless you are large breasted, makes the models look flat as a pancake:
I realize you are not large breasted, but your choices make it look worse than I suspect it is. I would also suggest this image in heals as it would give more shape to your legs.
Now I do work with models with little to 0 boobs, and can work around it. I suspect though that overall your swimwear could be better than what you are showing.
I would have to meet you before I set anything up with you. You appear to be attractive, but there is absolutely NOTHING that inspires me in your port.

For several years, I have published a traditional bikini calendar and other sorts of traditional bikini related advertisements. If you would like to know based on your port alone, what your odds are of being published with me, let me know. I can also tell you what is lacking from your port that I like to see.
First, take out the part in your profile about your past bad experience. I agree it is horrible, but it would tend to make some perspective employers nervous about whether you are ready to shoot again or not. You know you had that experience and just be careful.
On your portfolio, you are cute but something doesn't click for me. I would put you in the 40% range.
I would never click on your profile based on your avatar. It doesn't really show you.
There are several images in your port where I could see your look working. I don't want to give you a percentage because you don't have a full frontal swimwear style image that I need to see. I can make girls out of shape work if I like there look, but they get a much lower percentage that someone with a bikini bod.
Show me what I need to see and I can give you an accurate rating.
