I thought I would have a go as well ... quite a challenge this one  :)
Great character photograph and pity loss of so much detail on face.

Now this is a different approach ... making it look more like an "old" photograph  ;D
Tends to bring out more definition in the face?

Perhaps some will now try and restore this .. hahahaha.
