Lynn,

What a beautiful job you have done. I can only think of few things that might help. 1. I think her skin shows through more on her sleeve, but this is a minor pic. 2. You have done a good job on the shadows, but on her bust you might shade a little in the center. Add a layer and color with a light blue/gray like what you see on her veil on your left. I would also be tempted to lighten the veil on your right. Keep this version separate in case you like it the best. The bride's face looks really good and nice job filling in for the damaged areas.

Is this better? Hard a little hard time with the bust shadow but did a very subtle triangle.. also lightened the veil on my right and brought out the skin on the sleeve..
