I would love to know your thoughts on this. What do you think? Cool effect, or just TOO much?

I think the effect is great ! The photo looks nice but the face is a little too bright for me.
Great idea !

I really kinda like just the way it. I wouldnt want the face to be warmed up as he is supposed to be a bit blue and cold. The only thing I might try is to brighten up the eyes a bit
Did you use brushes for this?

Thumbs up

I like your picture but yes, maybe the face is a little too bright. Would love to see it a bit darker.
