A little too much noise in the face. The original was not that bad. Whenever you do a restoration you should strive to improve every aspect.
And also I've found out that it's all about the face being right, regardless of how nice you restore the rest of the pic.

It looks better but I am always careful especially in the eyes area to never lose any detail and forego any softening there.

Thanks, there was very little detail in the eyes to begin with.

Much better overall. A nice job in removing the color cast.
