Default Clones - how to improve?

Hi there!

This is a very special picture since I have had this idea for a while already. I finally did it! But I am not really satisfied with it.

First I can't decide if it's too dark or not... I have this impression when I look at the 3rd person with the lighter.

And I might do it again to add more "pep"! it's too fixed and serious to my mind, a little bit boring then :-) Maybe if there were more empty space...

Thank you for watching and for your support. I am looking forward to reading your opinion about (if you ever have one) ;-)

Default just for fun

i was in a playful mood...hope you don't mind this is just for fun. if you were going for a more dramatic effect i think that you should play with the lighting to make it more dramatic possibly and then try again. the example i touched up with pp is a dramatic example(kinda looks like a fiction mystery story book cover to me lol ).

your original is really dark and flat lighting. if you were wanting to just brighten it all up in pp and make the background more white that's another way you could go with it to show off the cloning job you did.
