photo restoration
 
This was one of the biggest challenges I have undertaken in photoshop. It must have taken me around 10 hours to complete.

All of my clients family photographs were destroyed in a house fire and the only remaining photo of her father was the following one.

In quite a bad way really...

with lots of help from my wacom (and lots of patience)

I presented it to my client in a very nice frame, blown up to a4, and she cried with joy.

Kinda makes my job worthwhile seeing her soo happy...

Nice work. Good to see you made someone genuinely happy.

Excellent work, I have tried this sort of thing before and it is a lot harder than it looks, you pulled it off flawlessly.

Very impressed :)

thanks guys!

Restoring is tricky, very sore on the eyes after 10 hours while zoomed in at 1600%. You definately need parience for this sort of work, and of course a wacom tablet.

It was good to see her happy though, well worth the effort! :D

i got a question about wacom tablets.
and this may be stupid but i really need to know


with the wacom tablets, is the drawing area a touch screen or is it just blank? is it like tablet pcs or is it like a touch pad on a laptop? thanx

It's not really like a laptop touchpad, it's just a plastic cover, and a pen & mouse. Here's mine:

it doesn't work with anything else other than the pen & mouse. Not totally sure how it works..

If you use photoshop a lot, buy one of these babies...
