Thank you all very much, Mike I am not sure I am a sure-in into heaven yet. I must admit many #$@$%% were loudly said during this challenge.
I thought for fun, and to see if Karin falls over, I would post the original reference, then a composite showing the model (a joke we did for her husband) and the shot I used for the body.
I think two things, well three (they know who they are) helped me with this; one - actually visiting the sisters and looking at their skin tones, two- the portrait Juan Martinez did that won the competition in Canada last year, I would go back to it for the blending and skin tones (I used Marvin's palette). I felt like Juan's had a "Doris Day" through the cheese cloth quality that I felt would work well for this.
