You've done a great job on this one  Ken. You just need to clean the smudge marks off the roof and wall.

Ken,
That is amazing, I'm very impressed, just fantastic, you must be pleased too.
My book arrived yesterday (Deke McLelland) so I've started in earnest! (at last)

Great job fixing the guy in the lower right corner!

It looks like you have some telltale cloning tracks on the roof though.

Thanks folks for the comments

The truth be told deadants & vhansen I spent sometime on this and got fed up so could not be bothered fully cleaning it  :-[ and I always get caught out with the clone stamp  :'(

I should have taken that extra step to complete it, well it is my Granfather with the circle around his head in the original.

The 2 points raised I will sort out, and I have given myself a slap over the back of my head for rushing an important family photo.  ;D

Ken, I can't say that I blame you for getting fed up with that roof. I've done a few of those, and it's difficut, and very tedious.  As long as there isn't a rush, I usually only work on those types a little area at a time. 
Hang in there.
