Not bad at all for a first try. There are some obvious problems but still much better than I could do. A little practise and you'll be a champ!

I think he has quite some good coloring skill. I´ve seen worse in military history books.
BTW what do you use for coloring?
There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

Me too! I still have my Crayola box of 50 colors I used when I was in elementary school. Guess that it´d become a memorabilia piece some years later?:confused:
Returning to the topic, I wonder if our photo artist friend Marco will paint the face too.

pretty nice job. what kind of layering did you use in photoshop, if you don't mind me asking?
never thought of trying to restore fotos like these. i have done quite a bit of graphics and stuff for private sites and such, but i am curious if you used an adjustment layer with coloring and such by using the pen tool or if you did something else.
very extensive work though.

Hello ECD3. Actually, it was a pretty boring and repetitive job! I have just selected every "area" with the lazo tool, created a layer, filled it with color and adjusted its transparency. Lastly, I did some refining with a "cloudy" pen tool, always with a huge transparency.
