So i've recently gotten into trying out more than just skin fixes for models and i've been trying to get a little creative with my retouching. I came across a grungey/ contrasty look awhile ago and i quite liked it so this is my attempt. I would just like some honest opinions as to how it's coming, and what you would suggest i do to change/fix/update it.
Also, note on the pic, it's a little small so you might want to click it to get a better idea of the detail.

I like the idea, but I think you might have gone too far.  She has a naturally tan skin tone, but you brought up the majority of her skin to a should-be-redhead-pale.  Maybe not go quite so light?  And more skin texture would be good, too.

DELETE THREAD

Wow, am I a thread killer now?  Seems like many of the threads I've replied to recently have gone dead... but this is the only one that the OP as requested to DELETE!
