Hard to critique this so I will only nit bit. I would maybe tone done the highlights on the round object mid right, maybe a chair back? Good subject, good expression and great capture.

He does exist! It's Santa!

I'm ill equipped to offer much helpful critique on this type of work but one thing that I notice is his left (our right) eye is solid black. Maybe a little lift to show a tiny bit of detail?

Other than that, I think this looks looks great. I like the solid crisp punch in your processing.

Thanks,

The above is a film emulation.

Went back to the NEF and processed about 98% in ACR, couple of CC tweaks, but think the eyes get better -and, required much less time

Agree with Ben, the edit looks better and the vignette helps reduce the BG distractions nicely. It might be a little heavy for some peoples taste but I like it.

Might have lost a little too much contrast but this might be a result of the film look you are working on.

I'm incredibly young (and good looking) so my knowledge of film is near zero. My first film camera was a Kodak Handle so...
I did graduate to a Canon Sureshot in the late 70's but even then, all I knew about film was how to put it in the camera.
