Hi Everyone,
I don't have much of a clue about how to do this, which is why I'm here in this course. Nevertheless, I took a stab at it.

Jayslu,
And a fair stab so far...
Many of the problems with this image will be addressed in the class...
So far we have...
Skin tone,neutrals,the lips,the background lighting,low pixel counts due to small image size..I'm sure there are more but I want you all to identify them as well. As we go, I am going to try to build a "proposed work flow" for us to try to fix all of the issues identified so far.
The Low pixel count might be an issue we cannot get past but the rest should be "fixable".
So far who do you all think has done the best job of making the image look good?? and further...Why?

I'm having difficulties with disply - I'm using Curvemeister 3 with photoshopCS4 the CM controls show OK but the image display area shows the programs/desktop[ behind - suspect open GL issues.

Removed some blue by pulling down the middle of the cyan curve in wgCYMK.Don't know if change will transmit.

Greg,
Did you mask the eyes or just adjust the Cyan curve?
The skin looks better but seems to have lost that "outrage" look you had before..
