Bingo! My son Isaac's cheek, actually.

I had considerable difficulty and really limited working time to try and get a metallic gold look; being able to use the advanced editing rules would have been a big help here, especially in being able to keep the fingers naturally-colored.

Creative idea for this challenge, but without the title I don't think anyone would get it. Seems to have a greenish tone to the picture and it's difficult to tell what the picture is of.
