In the event that you are not tired of my old family pictures

[ashling]

I don't have any real up to date photoshop equipment, but I have been slowly working on a few old pics I have.

This is an old creased photo of my mom in her red cross uniform in WWII


and here is what I have been able to do with it. I only have the paint application that comes with windows


here is a paper from 1944. She was stationed in India and Burma on the Ledo Road.

6. I used Photoshop CS

it has some handy tools. I lost my mother 5 years ago so I couldnt pass up the chance to try and restor your Mother's pic.

7. Thanks a lot

my first problem was just getting the creases out, then I had trouble with skin tones in the roughed up places. I am wondering if I will be able to mach the ARC pins on eaither side of the collar.

Pjotoshop beats working pixel by pixel and using th spray function.


BTW, welcome to DU.
