Newbie Kind of style... say how u feel about them ;)

So, here's something, that i try to achive with use of various postprocesing methods. The oryginal picture was shot few days ago, with a little bit of light control (as much as one on-shoe strob and one blend could do), of course i forgot to shot a clear background with 100% focus, so i colud get good looking focused background in postproces (nevermind, next time i will remember)...

so here is the result... before and after...
What do You think 'bout them?

Cyberek, welcome to RetouchPRO! Cute, boy. I assume he's yours. Fun graphic. A little on the green side for my taste, but the effect is striking.

I too am picking up quite a bit of green in the boy himself, but I love the immediacy and excitement of it. It's a very arresting style which I can see being very commercially successful.

I think it's specifically the green in the skin tones that looks a bit off.. here are a couple versions with the just the skin corrected a bit. One I did the hair, one I didn't.

Not perfect really, but illustrates the point well enough
