Re-working Chappy's avatar

Featured Replies

Posted

I've been tinkering around with Chappy's avatar (grandfather cecil archie) to colorize it. It has been awhile since I've done photo restorations/colorizing, so please let me know of things to change and/or improvements! Also, I wanted to keep the grain/old style look in a bit as not to lose it's original detail/feel. That said, here is what I have so far (the sepia-tone is the original)...

The colours are a bit too vibrant at the moment, and like Sneaky said, that kind of gives the impression he's made of clay.

 

With that being said, it's a really good effort thus far, and I really want to see your finished result.
