Any chance my brother's head can be restored?
« on: Monday 27 December 10 16:53 GMT (UK) »
I have no idea where Steve's head went, but have been reunited with this picture of me (little blondie), sister Christina and brother Steve.  Anyone willing to have a go?   :o

All offerings gratefully received.  Kit

Hi Kit

I've started, but not quite finished but it's past my bedtime so I will post my version tomorrow.  Marking this thread so I know where to post it.

Caroline and the others here have done fantastic jobs on the colouring and restoration jobs that I have set them so expect I am sure that you will be amazed by what they do for you.

I had a play in my amateur way, not really a restoration, just a bit of a rebuild for fun. I will watch this thread with interest and see what the experts can do.  :) :) :)

done a bit of surgery
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers
