Dodge and burn are done, but we have several color options in this image that will come into play in this phase. We will need to take care of that color cast on the leg from the pool water. Mixed with the work we just did on the hand in dodge and burn, we have a few unique challenges to address. It is important to see how Nino uses frequency separation in multiple layers to keep problem areas completely separated from each other.
Nino uses liquify for corrections and stylistic choices, and done with anatomy/physique kept in mind.
In this secondary correction, we have a very large fix to address. This one is less fine-tuning and more addressing a large color problem. Doing color work of this degree will require repainting of the colors.
Nino uses sharpening and noise here to adjust the overall texture of the image to bring the image into a unified state. A high pass sharpening and noise action balanced with each other achieves this.
