Coloring Historical Photographs - May 16th Edition
16 May 2020 • by Bob • Photography, History
I found another interesting photo in an aviation forum, and I thought that I'd take a quick pass at colorizing it. It's a WWII Navy pilot standing on the wing of a Grumman Hellcat F6F, and despite some trying - I couldn't find out who he is.
The colorization isn't perfect, of course, but I think it adds a bit of depth to the story. There is something obvious that I got wrong, though: the undercarriage of the Hellcat should have been colored gray.
Of course, I could go back and fix that now, but... meh. Not today.
