Title: Grandpa as a Baby looking for Coloring
Post by: AdkinsGen on Tuesday 10 November 09 20:34 GMT (UK)
I have been looking through some of these restorations and they are just amazing!  I had to find one of my own so I could ask for some coloring.

This is a picture of my grandfather as a baby.  I think it would be so much fun to have it colored and give it to my mom as a surprise.

Anybody who wants to have a go at the picture, I would really appreciate it!

I hope I posted it right; it took me awhile to figure it out.  :-\ Yes!  :D

Thanks Terry!  I should have mentioned it before, but Grandpa had green/hazel eyes.  If its a pain to change, blue is just fine! 

I really love them, you all are great!

Another for your collection.  Are the trees in the background eucalypts by any chance?

Thanks Morrie , it’s wonderful and you made a pretty sky too!

I don’t know anything about the trees. The picture was taken in Pennsylvania so I don’t think they are Eucalypts.  They would probably freeze their buds off there.   ;D

Thanks again wendy!  It was so nice of you to change the eyes for me.
