Here is one of the toughest images I have had to retouch. What are your thoughts? Aug 20 12 10:34 am Link tough? its not tough at all...I like your approach and execution Aug 20 12 11:10 am Link Tough is a relative term, obviously. Only thing that I can see as stand out awry, is the texture on the cheek. Although it is there in the original, it would probably be best eradicated. Aug 21 12 02:30 am Link Well done on trying to retain skin texture. There are two things that I've noticed - there's a patch on her cheek that needs to be healed. Also, the highlight on the side of her nose makes it look a bit unnatural. Overall, I like it! Aug 21 12 12:16 pm Link top lip looks weird. Kinda bumpy in color. i'd smooth the colortransition there Aug 23 12 07:26 am Link Looks to me like you should take the retouching back some. The eye & highlights look artificial, nice job though. Aug 27 12 11:49 am Link Only mine 2 cents You have lost face volume under left eye and nasolabial folds area Sep 01 12 07:47 am Link Eye looks the same size to me. Maybe with the color pop it appears to look a tad smaller especially with the erasing of the undereye circles and mascara. The texture isn't even thru out the image. The side of the nose bridge looks awkward. I don't think a highlight looks good there. Should of just gotten rid of the finger too. I don't feel like it has significance in the image.
