That's so interesting to do the colorization, it's like giving the second life to an old photo.
Thanks to inspyretash-stock for the great vintage portrait, lady Esther Ralston looks gorgeous.
I want to give her a quite modern looking with highlighted hair and some make-ups.
Basically what I've done is exactly the same as this tutorial: http://www.planetphotoshop.com/colorizing-a-grayscale-image.html
The only difference is I used one top layer with overlay blending mode to control the lighting because the BW image neutralizes some parts of the colored image.
I just show in SBS the comparison one by one of the original one and the colorized one, plus the work in progress in animation.
Since it's the vintage photo, I can't have the higher resolution version, but the quality is not that bad. (5 years and 3003 days ago)
Dedicate to Krigios, one of the greatest talents I admire in Pxleyes. He has a magic pencil ^^. The only reference is the avatar of Krigios (http://www.pxleyes.com/profile/krigios/). I wanna do the other great artists such as Glockman or Roon but I have no idea how they look like (maybe next time :D). Now, visit Krigios's portfolio you can understand more about the content of this entry ;). Hope he likes it :D.

he is very floofy! (I want to stick my finger in his belly to make him giggle like the Pillsbury Dough Boy
)
Just be careful, he might be hungry now
amazing blending, i'm impressed, just one tiny suggestion, why not giving it's fur something like tiger stripes, by that could get even more combined animals, great job and good luck
Exceptional blending on the face. Very well done entry!
Thank you all for your comments. @orientallad: I actually planned to do that but the 4 animals contest restricted the number of creature to 4. Now I'm free from the rule so I might give it a try, thank you for your suggestion.
Great work, just love him!!!!!
Very good blending, a like the new specie result.
Ah, I know it! It's Ursus aquiliatus ibexii or The Goatly Hawk-bear.
Great work... the blend is perfect!! good luck!!
Very nice

Too bad you didn't get a chance to upload it in time.
no wonder it is so perfect,...it is yours and it is my fav for sure.....!
Fantastic image and amazing creature...Best of luck author, u still made perfect entry's...
I second all the comments so far -- just a suggestion for a small improvement: the horn on the right is touching the border - an easy fix - excellent otherwise
Maybe not the wisest thing to say but you should have won.
Because I see a artist and this is something I would hang on my wall (something I would never do with most of the entries)
And thats all I wanted to say
Congrats!!
Thanks everyone for voting, comment, and faving my entry, I appreciate your supports ^^
