BEFORE [img]http://imageshack.com/a/img821/7080/pkbq.jpg[/img] AFTER [img]http://imageshack.com/a/img90/3723/mvqk.jpg[/img] I kinda messed up the trees in the after but I think it turned out okay. This thread made me think this was hard to do. Why didn't I do this before? Of course, I'm sure a person picture is more colors to deal with than this picture.

Yeah dude, it looks like you make a gold JFK statue in a suit, which is actually awesome!
[QUOTE=Martti010;41820612]The subject and grass looks really cool, although the grass is not as sharp as in the original.[/QUOTE] Even though it didn't say anything to blur the picture, as for some reason the whites in the photo were really sharp. So I "Blur more" it to get rid of that crappy whites. I'm not too experience with photoshop.

I have difficulty with getting the right skin tone doing this, but that seems to be my only problem.

Try to mess with the brightness and contrast when working on old photos. Black and white pictures used to be very contrasted.
ok no more golden statues original [IMG]https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQBYy10bpqOkWdG53OPQW95ZWXG2lNw2wl8FrSNihO_sGzB1ATt[/IMG] edited [IMG]http://puu.sh/4916z.jpg[/IMG]

Never tried this before, here is my first attempt [t]http://i.imgur.com/SKvoCfm.png[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/ETrWQnM.jpg[/t]
I was bored and decided to do this vintage picture of Adolf Hitler [IMG]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4OvmgrWqD0s/ULQblEJ2FmI/AAAAAAAADog/EZWmWt_m-M8/s320/03_Adolf_Hitler_(Mein_Kampf).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/recolorized_hitler.png[/IMG] It was my first time doing this type of thing, and I wasn't entirely sure what color the background and jacket originally were, but with photoshop being finicky with the amount of layers, filters, and adjustments going on, I couldn't make the jacket a darker brown. Thanks for the guide OP, the way I would have done it without that guide would have taken me hours
