Ok this is driving me nuts now. It's about time I posted my idea of an edit. These are large pics. Click on them to see full size.

After:
Notice the skin texture is still there!!! Particularly on Bambi's face you can still see every pour. She still has peach fuzz on her back. Unlike all other pics in this thread it does not look like a painting.
Let me be the first to say this edit is still not perfect. I blew it on Peaches' shoulder with the blown highlight.
BTW this is a 15 minute edit.
