Much closer to what I’m seeing here
as far as layers of contrast I’ve hit them all -all of the 5layers of simultaneous contrast -1) I have light vs dark areas
2) cool warm temp balance ,3) complimentary colors ,4)texture vs smooth 5) gloss vs Matt areas. Plus weathering along with staining, blood, acne, warts etc. the smoother skin contrasts nicely against the darker and more textured sections of like the dirty and stained shirts along with the oxidized steel simulation . And there’s bits of linear freehand.like the chevrons which will also be factor that will Tie them together .
