6 - Difficult to tell with the b&w about the eyes and lighting, but looks like the lighting does look too harsh - blown areas on the chin/chest/etc - but could be intentional. Like the composition, but.. although this is quite unique in b&w, do wonder about color. Just a little too brigh in the eyes in my opinion.
i like the idea of this image - going B/W was the way to show the great textures - but the contrast is too strong and the mouth and chin are completely blown out.
I am not really fond of the effect used here ... It looks like it is right on the border of line art but not all the way there for some reson the whisker on the right side bothers me
