**Update Number 1**
Okay, I've chickened out a bit and am waiting till I can get a firmer idea in my head for the childrens faces, but I've done some work on the lower part of the picture.
Grandads skirt (?!) is now freshly laundered and looking soft and silky, and great-aunts skirt has also had a spot of Daz (or probably OMO at that time) on it and is as neat as could be expected under the circumstances.
Grandads right boot has emerged, and it looked to me like it has a tab on for pulling it on. Not being even remotely an expert on antique footware (in the under five category) I can only have a wild stab at its appearance, but it looks physically possible to me.
His jacket looks nice and warm with those fur collars and cuffs, and it seems to me that he is wearing a soft cap of some kind.
I must say that so far this has been a lot more enjoyable to do than at first appearances, and Im actually looking forward to working on it at the end of a hard day in front of the computer at work.
More soon...
