Modern Methods for Old Photo Restoration
Modern Methods for Old Photo Restoration
Most photographs that you see in magazines today have been touched up using digital technology. Blemishes are removed, teeth are whitened and backgrounds are either enhanced or cleared of unsightly elements. The same techniques work wonders with old photo restoration, not only restoring old images to their earlier beauty, but also possibly improving them vastly in the process.
If your aim is the restoration of the original photograph, then it is necessary that you show your photographs to a qualified professional.
If the damage is slight, he will undertake the restoration, which may incorporate any of the methods given below. These techniques require experience, expertise and a very delicate touch, and any restoration work done on the photograph itself can be permanent, so be sure that the professional you choose is competent.
One method of old photo restoration is electronic. The photograph is placed in a scanner and electronic signals from the scanned image are digitalized and projected onto a computer monitor. The restorer can then repair scratches and tears, remove flaws, stains and blemishes and even rebuild missing parts of the image.
The hardware and software for this technology is very sophisticated and requires a highly trained technician to operate it, so the costs involved in this type of restoration can be prohibitive.
Old black and white photographs can be restored using chemicals. A very faded picture can be redeveloped, restoring the metallic silver substance in the photograph that has oxidized and caused the washed out appearance. This method will sometimes result in a dramatic improvement, bringing clarity back to the faded original. Bleaching the old photograph first (before redeveloping it), is even more effective, but there are serious drawbacks to these techniques, which you may want to consider before making a decision. If the old print is fragile, the chemicals used in redeveloping it can degrade the old emulsion and permanently damage it. Using bleach and then redeveloping will change the old photograph forever, and you will be stuck with your new picture, whether you like it or not. If your old photograph is of considerable sentimental value to you, you may prefer a less drastic method of restoration.
Photographs are restored using physical methods as well. One technique is called neutron activation and it is a complex procedure involving neutron irradiation and autoradiography, followed by photography. This method is highly recommended for old photo restoration as it preserves the original photograph, but the technology involved makes it expensive.
Another physical technique is scanning the photograph with x-ray beams and using x-ray fluorescence. This method is also safe for the original photograph, but again, it is expensive and the technology is not fully developed yet.
Airbrushing is a technique that requires a skilled artist, using a special paintbrush that uses compressed air and pigments to “paint” out flaws. The airbrush is highly versatile and apart from fixing imperfections, it can even remove an entire person from a photograph. The only thing an overly zealous artist has to watch out for, is that he does not turn your old photograph into a perfect painting !
The least expensive method is making a copy of your old photograph and then working on the copy with all the digital technology available today. An expert restorer will not only fix various flaws and damaged areas of the photograph; he can also improve the original photography. Blurred images can be sharpened; brightness, contrast and color balance can be corrected and the photograph can be cropped to improve the composition.
A good graphics editing software on your computer will allow you to try your hand at restoring too. Have an extra copy made of the photograph; scan it to your computer and using any of the tutorials available on the net as a guide, restore a copy of the photograph yourself.
Compare the result later with the one that your professional restorer has made and you might be surprised to discover that you have artistic talents too !
Old photographs must be stored carefully to preserve them. Keep old prints flat and lay them between sheets of special acid free paper. You can also use PVC sleeves. The cupboard where you keep them should be clean and dry. Look after your old photographs well and your children will not have to worry about old photo restoration when they inherit these precious pictures.

How to Use Airbrush Paints
How to Use Airbrush Paints
The airbrush paints available in the market today are non-toxic and water soluble. They are used in applications like temporary tattoos, automotive, modeling, fabric and by custom surfboard makers. They are available in craft shops, stationery shops as well as art stores. I find it very easy to use craft and textile paints and if you learn the basics, it becomes even easier.
These paints come in two different colors i.e. the opaque and the transparent types. The opaque is usually referred as the base color, non transmitting or the impenetrable to sight. They have a higher amount of pigments and can clog your brush easily at the tip. Whereas the Transparent paints allow light to pass through it so that other objects or bodies can be seen distinctly.
Some of the airbrush paints include: acrylics, gouache, and water colors. These are water based colors that come in tubes and in pre-reduced form. Acrylics are available in both transparent and opaque colors, they are easily thinned and cleaned using water. They are used in painting clothing and textiles. sign paints, oil paints and cratex colors are reduced with spirits or turpentine. They can be opaque or transparent depending on the level of reduction.
To apply a airbrush paints on fabrics, first you will need to try it on paper or canvas as you may well know, colors turn permanent on drying. Clean the leather by rubbing with alcohol or spirits. Spray a mild base coat of Opaque for best results. Apply color in thin even coats, avoiding excessive paint layering and over saturation. Let the colors dry before heat setting. Iron the fabric for thirty seconds using protective cloth.

10 Best Ways To Shade A Picture
10 Best Ways To Shade A Picture
Lighting can be a very tricky trick to master. The shadows can be very tough to depict correctly. Cartoonists do not always draw the shadows super realistically but instead draw shapes that are meant to symbolize the shadows. These sharp shapes can be really neat looking. Other artists try to capture the light more realistically using airbrushing, stippling, cross-hatching or various other shading techniques. Whatever technique you choose to use, many of the principals of lighting are the same. For instance, no matter what you are shading, you will need to determine where your light source is.
Lighting plays a large role in indicating form and making an image appear more 3D. In order to really understand light sources, you will need to look at objects in a variety of lightings and keep the logic behind the lighting consistent. The light sources are the points from which light comes, such as the sun or the lights in the room. Only by doing this will the lighting trick the eyes into seeing the entire image as realistic. Be sure to look at how different shapes such as cubes, spheres, pyramids, cylinders and cones and also look at the shapes in all sorts of lightings and times of the day.
If you have a pencil in hand, there are a couple of ways that you can shade.
1. Scribbling
The most intuitive way to shade is to scribble by swirling your pencil, spending more time swirling in areas that are supposed to be more shaded. However, this is not the only way.
2. Stipple
You can also use the stipple method, which involves placing a large series of dots closer together or farther apart.
3. Crosshatch
You can also use the crosshatching method where you make several X marks, pressing more lightly as you move towards the more well lit parts.
4. Hatching
Finally, you can use vertical lines, with some lines thicker and closer together while other lines are more spread apart. Any of these methods can be very useful when shading a colored image. With color, you can also add highlights by adding white to a particular part of the image. But do not use pure white. Make sure that the color in the image mixes in with the white.
5. Airbrush
If you are using a graphics program, you can use the airbrush tool to lay down pixels in an unsystematic way.
6. Blur
You can also shade by throwing lumps of color into the picture and then using the blur tool to blend the colors together.
7. Smudge
Or you can use the smudge tool to rub different colors together. Use whatever methods you prefer.
8. Cell Style
For cell-style shading, you will need to create different shapes in order to indicate different shadows. If you have a steady hand, you can draw these shapes. Or you can use the pen tool found in some graphics programs. Then all you need to do is find a shade that is darker than the shade that you are placing shadows over.
9. Line Width
Change the width of the lines, using thinner lines on the parts of the character that have light cast upon them while using darker lines where the shadows hit.
10. Screentones
The final method is to use screentones. Screentones are conventionally used for black and white comics. The best way to get screentones is to make them yourself using filters or to buy a screentones program.
