Thanks. Yeah... the face is a bit brighter than the rest of the body. I think it's because her chest and neck are somewhat in shadow. I will work on the other shot today and post.
Very nice toot... thanks for sharing...
I'm a Kidnapper... I take terrible pictures of people, then hold them for ransom.
Bryce... I actually liked #1... maybe just a smidge less yellow in the face...but i think it works... in this view the legs & arms are great... the chest & face jut went past center a bit... (i think)... More importantly... what do your customers think?
As you know I do some weird stuff... but as long as I get to keep using my Square & the money goes to my account I will keep doing weird, wild stuff;)
So I say to you.. More Please... love it...
I concur Doug. The first effort was overdone. Gal isn't a customer, she's a bartender at my local "wet goods emporium". I did this for my own learning experience and of course the fun.
This is my latest effort. Still playing around with the unsharp mask in the Alex Tute, I think I may have overdid it a bit, but still, it's better than my previous attempts. One thing I've added to mine that I didn't see in the "tute" is a grain texture. This is just a personal preference thing with me.

Love that last one....that is money.
The last thing.....when all done.....take your clone tool >soft brush> darken or lighten as needed> opacity 10.
And go to the face and blend the lines of any areas that look splotchy just enough to blend the lines of light and or dark areas, be very careful and use a subtle touch, less is definitely more.
Once the face is cleaned up that last one is perfect.....can't wait to see more of these from you.
And you did such a good job with the model, see how engaged she is and just oozing personality.

Thanks a lot zoom!
That tip with the clone tool worked wonders, thanks.
OK, this will be my last one until I do another shoot and apply some of the lighting changes I think will improve the process. Many thanks to AC (Alex) for the processing tute!
On this one I played with the sharpening process using smart sharpen and then unsharp mask. The steps were easier for me.

Thanks man! I'm pretty happy with that one myself. Alex's tute was invaluable.
Thanks bunches M.

I fixed the color balance and think it looks much better now....
Extra sets of eyes are PRICELESS!
