OK It is striking for a front cover, I have been looking at it in PS and have to say a red filter mono (which neutralises the lips tonaly) and gives it an almost IR glow to the skin tones works a treat... it can also be very effectively combined with an overlay layer to lift the colour version too.
Any Good? To answer that question properly, we would need more detail about the purpose of the picture. For example what is the magazine/paper? what is the story? Does editorial need to be fitted in? To your question 'Any good?' I would have to ask back , Any good for what?

I tried two mods ( I only read afterwards you wanted colour ) and lightened the skin tones and increased the contrast. This I did using levels, curves and blending modes. You may or may not like them or think them relevant to your purpose.
V2 has more impact imo.
Excellent portrait by the way.
Alan.
like them both, but i think #2 as it just feels a bit more edgy
Dave
Brilliant portrait, I think my preference is for V2 but its a close run thing.
Hugh
Super quality portrait, Diana...has to be V1 for me.

Hya, wow you have been busy!
Thanks so much for the mods, really kind of you to take the time and for the comments too of course
The text looks super-cool !
Thanks Dave..
and Hey Alan that mono is beautiful, I’ll use those directions then for a future mono
some great ideas, to be going on with until I get the time to do a fresh one for the front page
really appreciated
Diana
Quote: Thanks, did you just crop the bottom Scara?
I like the 2nd one Nick, right you know I dont do Pshop that well, did you copy it and make it mono then overlay it?
thanks

Just the triangle in the top, too much to drink, sorry.
