Have just been working on something, took me an hour to do!

I had a picture of Sarah Michelle Gellar (desaturated) on my computer, and decided to colorize it!

Original image:

Colorized:

It was kinda a rush. Her hair is too grayish, and her eyes are a bit weird, plus the edges aren't good.

Edit: Argh! The shoe! The bit around the shoe..gah! Atleast I saved a copy as PSP so I can edit the layers

That's really good! Well done. I used PSP when I did some a while back and I would never be able to do that.

Thanks Twas my first time colorizing my first picture, though the edges around the hair are bad You can still see the gray.

Ellas#1Fan: How can you color a desaturated pic?

[.Cat.]

Well, what I do is make a new layer. Select a colour, and set the blend mode of that layer to "Color". I then go over what part Im going to color (e.g. the dress). Then when Im ready to move on to soething else (e.g. the skin), I make another new layer, set it to color e.t.c e.t.c

I also opened up a picture of Sarah, and using the eye dropper tool, got colour samples of her skin e.t.c.
