Looks good Saphire, I think I would have done the area under her ear (right).first thing I noticed, overall though.......nice job!

If you were the photographer for the last pic - just a suggestion - Move the girl forward at least 5 feet from the backdrop. Reason being it casts an ambient light and it will make the background more out of focus. This will make it easier to mask out in photoshop as well. One thing that stands out to me in the last one is you didn't mask out the background inbetween her hair and her neck on the left side of the picture.. I really can't tell for sure if the hair and some of the skin looking oversharpened is in fact oversharpened or if it's a compression issue. I like the colors and the pose itself works nicely.. For the first manipulation the color is just about perfect.. The only thing that throws this off really is the softness on his ear / neck and a couple of distracting chest hairs right outside the collar of the shirt. Very nice though.

Saphire, this work is beautiful! the second image of the girl is really neat, just like a romantic era painting. The Jack Nicholson is great tool It really looks like he's wearing the outfit.

On Jack's pic, what struck me as a little off is his ear. It could use a little warping to look like it's getting squished a bit by the hat. And also, since the original photo has the ear out of focus you may want to photoshop in an ear from another source.
