Mum 17
« on: Sunday 10 June 18 16:32 BST (UK) »
Hello Restorers,
 
 Please would you repair and colour (if possible) this photograph of my Mum. Given to
my Dad just after they met, he carried it in his wallet for nearly 50 years until he
passed away.

 Mum had lovely blue eyes, dark brown almost black hair and aways looked suntanned -  even in winter. By the way that's not a mark on her cheek, she had dimples!

Hi there, a couple of tries from me. One lighter skin tone and one other to try and get a tan colour
Restorers : Please do not use my restorations without asking my permission first. Thanks.

Good quality size scans will mean much better restores >> hint hint :-)

To each one of you; Tony, Rami, MartynS, Handpandy, and John
 
 You've all done a marvellous job. First repairing all the wear and tear on the photograph and then adding colour.
 
 I am truly grateful - thank-you

Hello Pablo,

 Sorry for the delay in thanking you for your lovely restore and giving my Mum a new coat.
