Hi Danny
Here is what I did to the Dude.
I desaturated, then bumped up the neutral tones with cyan.
Dodged and burn some contours of the face. |

Well done Cathy and Keiser, whose crop I esp. like.
I, too, went for a contrasty look with this BW conversion (mostly a combination of the L and B channels).
