Jim Hawkins	It is a very skillful blending of elements Claudia.  The way you are able to light the eyes in Painter is wonderful.  The added streaks in the model's hair gives a spot texturing that adds depth.  Love it !!!
Elli Kraizberg	Perfect . It is my opinion that you should use lower opacity to blen the feathers a bit better. Rich portrait with a wonderful choice of harmonic colors (which is always your strength.
Ian Ledgard	This is a fine image, well thought out in the first place and executed with great skill. The result is very convincing and had you not explained how you had achieved it I for one would not have realised that this was a composite. Very well done.
Nancy Parker	.
Frank Crommelin	Beautiful image great warm tones. I think a head band would tie the headdress to the model, and maybe toning down the lower garment to help focus on the face that is the main subject the face.
Andrés Canepa	Great job!!, color equilibrium are perfect, you improve the skin tones PERFECT, the hair improvement are great, the gray hair in a young and healthy face make strong the portrait, Bravo!!, an acceptance of course. Difficult make a contribution to improve it. In personal I would attenuate a little the high light in the neck, and in the eyes I decrease a little the saturation or light in the eye’s iris. Congrats!!!.
