I'm uploading the .psd, but it's 70MB. It won't be really helpful since I apply all the effects directly on the pic

GDL, i like what you did there, with that cc she looks tanned, and contrast is better, however looks like you just added whole blac layerand made i soft light , nah it's cool. simple bu i alright,tbh iexpected more fromyou mate

bLADE, i really love it, it's like you did one just for me lal,you know purple,but yeh, i mustsay she looks tanned there aswell, whichmakes picture better.

my vote goes to bLADE, light source did th trick with cc.

I don't have much to comment here. But let's see:

blade's glowish tone didn't fit the yellow layer AT ALL. Also, making and outer glow in the stock made it horrible looking. When doing a color correction to a picture, never, never get to use any bleeding options that affect the stock's "drawing".

GDL seemed more cautious I'd say. Made some background color adjustment as a primary target for the challenge and minor fixes in the stock. You could've used some different tones to enhance it, but not mixing more than one in this case. Not much to comment here.


Vote goes to GDL

You know what, I don't have much to say about this one. XTO pretty much covered it all up. Both are good, but that outer glow in Blade's work is a bit of a letdown. GDL, on the other hand, did better. That gradient fits perfectly to the stock. Nice job on the contrast and color correction, too.

GDL has my vote.
