getting better, but I could have swore you did one with a background before, I like the leather pant idea, but you may want to clean the edges more one thing to try is when you go to erase, set the eraser to a 45% transparancey, experiment with the pen/vector tools, they will help out on making the clothing and get you even lines, well they work for me....also looking at previous work you have done, I am guessing the pants everyone likes is part of the origianl image you added the shirt to.
