Could someone improve this squaddie
« on: Tuesday 19 September 06 13:32 UTC (UK) »
I was fortunate enough to find someone who sent me the attached photo and now wonder if there is any chance of it being improved as it seems to have lost a lot in its scanning

Thanks P@B

I am never very good at getting rid of "lines" - but here is my attempt.

Cheers
