looking through the .psd, I really like the subtlety to the colours to the original picture, it would've been nice to have seen them be enhanced by saturation and then added various textures on top of that as necessary, rather than adding textures and then saturating that. It sounds subtle but I think it would've made a big difference
Also, I'm concerned by how much shadow detail is lost during 'layer 2' if you'd set that to multiply (or maybe used a curve layer that doesn't effect the absolute black point instead? there are lots of other options, really) it would've had less of an extreme effect on the shadows and then there would be more texture and detail to keep our interest in the final result :)
I hope this was helpful and I've given you a tag :D
