Oh no...the hair...the horror, the horror!

Beautiful. Just wish the cat fur had a little light gold in it to match the greater part of the picture. Just my opinion. Good luck with it!

Above the cat's ear, the beads are gray and odd looking, instead of golden. The shadow on the beads would not allow them to be reflective yet desaturated...

Fixed something with the light, also added more color to the cat.

This is beautiful author! I love it, vibrant golden colors gives the exact right feel to the image, I wish you the best of luck!

Vibrant and beautiful to look at. Great job

Nice work, except she seems to have a wonky eye, with one looking up and one looking outwards...

Hey author, i hope i'm not too late.. Humans recognise if a person is female or male by the proportions between the waist, the hips & rib cage. You need to bring that out , maybe by darkening the princess and at the limit making her waist smaller so that we can clearly see her gender.
My first thought was why is he calling this old man a princess It would help to bring out some parts of her black hair, so we wouldn't see her as a granny.

cool work author...best of luck

The jagged edges along the side of the face are distracting.

A bit too filter heavy...I bet you could tweak this a bit.

Will do some tweaking, but Missy, you'd probably have jagged edges if YOU were frozen. !!!!!

High res is quite nice.. just a suggestion (IMO) try duplicating and playing with blending options.. like multiply and overlay, to see if you can add a bit of density (the painting color is awesome)... love the color conversion and good luck
