Great grandad's face was extremely difficult for me as I'm not very artistic.  I hope I didn't muck it up too bad.  He looks a little young too me but I just couldn't seem to get him to look older.  Maybe he would have appreciated it :P!  Anyways, I just thought I'd give you another picture, it's practice for me and hopefully enjoyable to you.
RESTORES: If I have done a restore for you and you want a printed copy, let me know so I can send you the full-sized file, not scaled for this site.
