while I think the PP is interesting and techincally done well, I don't think it is entirely flattering to the model. It is very stark and constrasty which cuts against the models youthful/playful qualities.

Sort of agree. I love this grunge-tweak you have going for the image but it would absolutley kill if she were not smiling.....maybe mouth slightly open, no smile, finger pulling on bottom lip. In respect to the process itself, very nice work!
Hey Thanks everyone!! Always helps to see outside the box once in a while, by getting some opinions! This was just a practice photo mostly, no thought was really put into the scenario, just wanted to practice some finishing techniques!
Just my two cents, but you could have done almost all of that with your lighting and I bet it would have looked better to boot. I think we have a tendency to rely on post-production these days and I'm just not convinced most images wouldn't simply be better starting with a great capture. I also think your skin smoothing is a bit overdone. But... like I said, just my two cents.

Would be nice to see the Before image as well to compare.
