Alex K Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Well.....Photoshop possibly???......but if we never find out and they are nice, we will let you....Well!!! Photoshop colourisations, a difficult one, does it matter that some were colourised nearly one hundred year ago or more recently a genuine question.Then they used paint, now we use more modern methods, the results then and now were to achieve the same result. I attach for you to decide. :)best regardsAlex KIf you feel they don't fit in with your thread, then I have no problem at all with them being removed Edited October 17, 2013 by Alex K
Alex K Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Hi Dante, glad you like them. I realise that your intention was most probably to have members post "original and period" colourisations, which they were, and am more than interested in seeing them. I also look forward to see what other members may have hidden away, as stupid as it sounds, seeing genuine period colourisations, in the end helps me to reproduce accurate images my wayregardsAlex
dante Posted October 17, 2013 Author Posted October 17, 2013 Thanks Alex, you are welcome to post your pictures, you are bringing to life some fantastic pictures (I have a couple of pictures I would love to see in colour)
Alex K Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Hi Dante, these original colourisations are a treasure trove of information for people who take old B/W images and add hopefully lifelike colour to them, (Albeit in a modern way!) much of the information would otherwise be lost. a good thread.To The Prussian, (Andy) some really nice images you have.regardsAlex Edited October 17, 2013 by Alex K
Alex K Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Thanx Alex!Here a few moreOnce again some excellent images, However I admit I don't recognise the Scottish Tartan the Kriegsgefangene are wearing!! Maybe the colourist just made it up?? but I could be wrong regards Edited October 17, 2013 by Alex K
