When doing faces, always look at the angle of facial features and lighting. I would do a horizontal flip so it matches better. Other than that, it's a good match.
Another trick I use to match up features is to create a temporary layer and add guideline dots to the the facial features of the original. That way when you are using the transform tool on the new face, you can get things lined up better. Especially if you need to distort it a bit.
This also makes it easier if you want to incorporate some of the original features into your new face. For example, you could erase some of Richt's face to reveal the freckles or the cheeks more. Just do a bit at a time with the eraser tool at a low opacity. Do more or less as needed to get the look you want.
Of course, you can also add those features in by copying them from the original face to a new layer above the new face and blending them in the same way.
Different ways to skin a cat. Let me know if you need additional explanation on anything and I will provide it. Good luck.

Fantastic Tips Rattlehead. I wish I had read them before embarking. I ended up watching a tutroial and learning to use a clipping mask which was pretty cool. Not sure I understand the concept but it works like a charm.
I wish i had used horizontal flip. It would have been perfect for this project.
