What a life he must have lived. As crusty and earthy as he looks, I felt he needed a red shirt, one that had been washed until all the color had just about been leached out.

Edit: In response to questions about the colorization, I used at least one layer set to color blend mode for each color in the picture. Some of those layers, once blended, needed to be tweaked. I did that with a Hue/Sat clipping mask set to colorize.

And yes, a "pink" shirt. Everyone else had gone blue or green. The shirt has pleats down the front and was probably once a formal shirt...so I went "formal" sort of...red washed to many times it has turned pink.

Nice result Janet, believable colouring. But how did you go about it?

See you finally tackled this one Janet. Pink shirt eh? I really like the skin tone and the hat color.

Your results are very nice and natural looking. Did you use layers to add your colors?
