| Re: Please critique Hello and glad you posted a separate image. I always ask... "What is your goal?" because people often post, ask for critique and we don't know if they were doing a glamour retouch, an artistic retouch or what? We also don't know your experience level, other than judging from the image. So, I'll assume this is a glamour retouch, and from your other post I know you have been doing this for other industries for a while. But, I don't know how long. So, I see several things off the bat that I'll mention. (a) shadows from her arm on her face; (b) uneven skin tones; (c) approaching too much saturation in skin tones, lips, eye shadow, etc. for my personal preference; (d) some asymmetry in her eyes. Hopefully, you are working through a standard workflow. If not, this could ensure you don't miss a step. An example I have posted before is: 1. make overall color corrections; 2. clean up the overall image and remove distractions; 3. make the face symmetrical; 4. reshape and rebuild the body or face; 5. perfect skin, clothing, etc.; 6. enhance eyes, lips, hair; 7. make color corrections to selective areas; 8. correct lighting, focus, sharpness; 9. review time - before final changes and sending sample. I hope this is helpful, not hurtful. Good luck in your work. |
