« on: Sunday 05 February 06 01:24 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

After the Great job you guys did on my mother I was hoping you would be able to fix this photos and three more I will post under a new topic.

Thanks,

K.H

Hi Meep-meep,
What a wonderful old face!!  He looks like he could have told some tales...
I cleaned it up in B&W and did a sepia for you as well.  Hope you like them.  It was a real pleasure to do the work on a face so full of character  :)
Cheers
Prue

Hi again,
I couldn't resist adding some colour, hope you don't mind  :)

I'm not happy with the background on these, but there's not alot of detail there to work with, as it's so dark, so I just left it blank.

Cheers
Prue

wow these look great, and indeed Uncle Hori did have many stories to tell, he used to visit my grandmother's house often and would sit for hours and tell my aunties and my mother traditional maori myths and stories.
