Cool looking Dude..Not sure if your intent was to oversharpen his hair oversmooth his skin but it falls short with me. THe concept and lighting setup are good ..processing I prob would have chosen a different direction

Looks somewhat unreal to me, like a character out of Avatar rather than a real person, like the lighting and the composition

I like the lighting and the eye has nice detail so I know your focus is on. You've probably already heard this quite a bit, but I think you sort of shot yourself in the foot with the processing on this one. His skin is overly smooth and when I look at it that is all I see, not the nice lighting you have got going here. Especially for a man, this photo requires more grit more edge, his expression says it all, but smoothing it out takes that all away. Processed differently I could see it in the top 10, as is I gave it a 5 sorry :(

Very nicely lit and composed!! The processing is awesome too, except for the eye which looks overdone (and a wee bit creepy).

EDIT..not sure if there's a calibration difference between our monitors, or this was intentional, but the models hair is blue?

Should go down well with the ladies. Intense image and dimensional tonal key light.
