in a scrapbook
« on: Thursday 18 August 11 07:59 BST (UK) »
This photo of my mother was cut around and put in a scrapbook. Would it be possible to repair and give her body back. If  little colour can be added she had black hair very dark brown eyes and the dress was pale primrose.

Thank you
Irene

I haven't done the course in restoring body parts yet!!   ;)   Can't do colour either   :(

I've tried to make her appear less 'cut-out'!    Best I can do I'm afraid!

Nice looking woman!

my go
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

Regards Roy
