i think the one in #8 is the best. the shine is much more noticeable to me in #9 & #10. In #8, there's just a little but i hardly notice. in #8, i love the shadows on the face on the right...think you nailed that one. shadows on the face on the left, however, might could use a little lightening up. yeah...#8 is the best if you ask me!!!! i also like the toning better on that one too!!!! keep it up!!! can't wait to see more studio work from you!
