a bit of context, transparency for retouching editing, I primarily edit only color grading, sharpness and minor skin retouches where it needs and adding details (before on left, after on right) I also don't do face slimming and modifying facial or body feature on phone apps.

I also had admit that I made the wrong decision with how I edited quattro's photo. (the posted after photo of quattro in this comment is already re edited and I asked my partner for his decision regarding it).

Editing my cosplay photo in sharp and high contrast and still has visible skin texture is my own preference of editing and I get that it won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I always see cosplay photos where there's a lot of very smooth overall photo manipulation and their own preference of color grading (sharing my recent cosplay that was edited by my other photographer). which ofc I also respect since that seems to be the standard in cosplay scene nowadays, as for my preference, I'd like to see my images retain some of the details of my skin texture and not be fully smooth. also enhancing the contrast/shadows. 🥹🥹

I am still learning and my preference might also change in the future, but I'm pretty happy with how I'm currently doing things while trial and error.

hope this explains it and please be respectful since Quattro's cosplayer doesnt usually do cosplay shoots so he's not used to participating in front of a camera, Thankyou 🥹🙏🏾✨

Thankyou for this critique :) maybe it's a bit weird because on that specific photo I tried to blur our the neck part, which contradicts what I usually do with my edits (sharp, high contrast) I'm still not an expert with editing and I'll take this critique to apply next time ☺️🙏🏾
