Do you think a small soft blur brush around the sharp edge of the head might be helpful in the realism? When something is masked without a soft feather, you get a really sharp edge that looks a bit "Cut" out. But that could me, great thinking all round... GOOD LUCK
Thanks Drivenslush, the outline does seem a little sharp. I corrected selecting, contracting selection 2 px, feather 1 px, inverse then delete, seems a little less sharp.
Can definitely see the improvement!!! and a very gret thinking chop
