The manikin looks like it has a much higher resolution compared to the background which is much more grungy looking. Maybe try adding some texture over the manikin and making it more purple to fit in the scene. Maybe put it more to the left because the left part of the picture is kind of empty.

I checked the stock i used, and gbot photos has near to the same resolution.
But it's true the manikin looks more detailed than the grass. Looks like the
manikin shot, was done from near the subject, but the grass shot seems a
cropped wide angle one. That difference between focal length of the two
pics, makes the amount of detail of manikin higher than the grass.
I'm not sure if put more texture over the manikin could fix this. Maybe could help
to make it more grungy but, that means add more texture when the problem
is that the manikin has more texture than the grass.
I think the fix is more about reduce slighty the texture in the manikin. Or maybe a
subtle blur with a mask. If i remember well, aside diference of detail i remember blurred
all the image and masked the manikin...
About the color, i think the problem is too much yellow on the manikin. I desatured the image
before do the last adjustments, but masked a bit the manikin, what was yellow and overexposed.
If i put the manikin to the left that could broken the composition, i think the problem is just the left side
needs another element on it. I feel this manip is incomplete.
Thanks for your support

Yeah, unfortunately world is like a big bussines machine, and we are like the gears what makes this machine work, for the benefit of a few ones. In the other hand, we can make fun of this, or maybe just buy some gasoline and burn'em all haha.
I hope my english could be understandable hehe. Thanks a lot for the fav!

You got to make the most of your gear-like existence. Even if that means trying to altogether leave the machine, if possible.

Totally true, but there is some facts about human being needs hehe. That makes leave out the machine at 100%, really complicated.
I think "one-against-the-world" can't work, is all about reteive things as empathy, be united as human being we are and face the machine
