My wife is writing a book and asked for me to help her with the cover for it, I've done what I can and wanted to know if anyone could tweak what we have already accomplished?
Here is what we have so far:



She is wanting the bullet to look more like it is apart of the picture, not just cropped and added in, and also if you look at the skin around the bullet it has lost it's texture. ANY help at all would be wonderful.

Let me know what you guys can do for me, Thanks :)

Why dont you just attach a bullet to the necklace and retake the photo. Instead of going in over your head of doing a manip?

Why is the bullet reflecting off his skin? That's not how shadows work.

Why did the skin need masking?

Show the original, might give more to work with.

For one this isn't my wife, and secondly I didn't ask for criticism, all I asked for was for someone to fulfill my request. kthxbai.
