The area where the 'hair meets the baldness' (I dont know the correct word ..SORRY 
) is very sharp, try the blurr tool or low pressure smudge tool there. (left side is more visibe... I mean his right side) And the top edge of the head is flat(not tooo flat, have a close look 
) , use the clone stamp tool or patch tool to add some texture there.. A little bit will do.. otherwise it's a good blending and good skin colors... and good proportion...

Great blending, but the difference in noise between the face and the clothes and hand is disconcerting.
Needs more matching texture on the face, but good color match.
agree with cmyk46 , then you will have a good one.
All in all pretty decent work . Perhaps tone down the brightness of her face a little.
Good call, Chappy. She does seem to have a bit of facial shine going on...The texture is a harder fix. I added a bit of film grain and canvas texture, but recreating 15th Century cracks is harder than it would seem...
Nice improvement author
, may I suggest trying a little Filter>Noise>Add Noise. Play with the settings; amount, Gaussian/monochromatic and such. Maybe it will help. That is on the layer with her face on it of course. 
Beautiful work author...also one of the top 3 IMO...GL
Thank you all for the kind words. This was a fun contest!
