I shot these two images on location ...
lighting was mixed strobe and ambient
white balance was taken from a white target
These just dont look right to me ... or am I being over critical

Look fine to me! Maybe a bit flat and not very saturated, but straight out of the camera they look good.

besides the busy bg, and the one image with the blown out white square, the images look ok.

They look o.k., but if you think something might be wrong, to me it looks like
white balance may have been fine tuned toward orange by maybe +2 or +4. I do see
a slight orange hue... maybe just me! |

I think it's the mixed lighting. The wall has a yellow tint from the light fixture above the person. The white balance for the man is ok, as your custom white balance for him must have been set from the fill flash.

| Hard as it might be, it would have been nice to separate the gentleman from the background by use of lighting. As it is, the subject is a bit diluted by what's going on around him. |

The strobe on him looks correctly WB'd to me. The slight orange cast on the background is the ambient light. If you don't want the ambient light, then speed the shutter up. But from your description, it seems you exposed purposely for ambient, in which case I don't see the problem. These pictures look fine. Make sure your monitor is calibrated before you start changing the images....
