Hi Kate, its looking good. The lady's skin looks very smooth compared to the original. I'd try to get a bit of definition back to her skin.
The tablecloth is missing the pattern now? I'd leave it in so it matches the last one from this group.
Apart from that its ready to go home.

Yes her face was difficult. I will try to work on that.
What is up with that table cloth! I tried my best to keep it as original to the photograph as I could and THATs not seemingly correct....lol
thank you for looking at it for me. :)

I had a look at the previous photo Kate and the blue does appear to be some sort of pattern in the tablecloth.

Ah yes it does. I was more talking about the white pattern lines. due to it being scrunched they dont seem to make any sense.
I looks to me like they just shoved the dinner back so he could hold the baby..

Yep thats looking better Kate. Now for the dreaded tablecloth pattern. :wow:

Do you want me to make the pattern straight or do you want me to follow the actual pattern of what was in the photo.
As what I see in the photo is that they messed it all up and that is why the plastic clothe looks odd.
I can just make it look decent, but I do feel that isnt how it was.
Let me know :)

I think it would look fine just following whats in the photo, wrinkles and all.
