While this may be a fantastic piece of marketing, your placement could be really off. HN is going through a transition at the moment, where people are seeing sexism in everything where a female is present, this is just going to be viewed as "objectifying" the female role.
There is also the issue with traction - if you do gain significant traction this could really come back to bite you in the ass, you could have a great product, etc, but you would risk alienating some of your potential clients if you get labeled as a "sexist" company, an all too easy tag to throw around these days.
That aside, I checked out your website and this seems to be the only thing you've done - I couldn't find a single production, so there are no past products, nothing shipped, not even some nice diagrams or examples.
I genuinely wish good luck to you and I hope you get some funding, but when all you have is an attractive woman (and admittedly, that's what brought me here) I think you will find it hard to convince an investor.
EDIT: I went back and had another look, and there are some examples in the Categories sidebar.
