Hmm wonder what it would look like with some colour???
« on: Saturday 26 November 05 21:23 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone i was wondering of any of you artists out there might be able to add a bit of colour to this pic. its one of my favs of the family. Ive seen some really good edits and thought someone would like to give this one a try.

Its one of my great great grandad and one of my grandads uncles [the child]. im doing some research at the moment on the pic. He was in the 5th Green Howards during ww1. Seems he was a bit of a character and has a poem  mentioning him in Mark Marsays book "Baptism Of Fire". He went on to look after my grandad in his seventies when my great grandmother  my grandads mother his daughter died in child birth.

cheers

No idea what colour to do the dog. He's been every shade from orange to black!

funny little dog isnt it! Just thinking do you reckon its a real dog, I mean its placed perfectly ears up and looking at the camera. Then again why would you have a random dog in the picture?

Hi Will

We thought it was a bit like a Yorkshire terrier, they must have loved it. I wasn't sure about the colour of the curtain. I may change it to a different colour.
