I thought I’d do a little tutorial on restoring old and damaged photographs using GIMP. For this example I’m going to use a photo of my late grandfather as a child.
It’s a very old photo taken in the early 1900’s so the dark and light colours aren’t as pronounced as they could be, but even fixing that won’t repair the damage, but GIMP will. Once we have the photo restored we can do some basic colour correction to it.
My fourth, and final, part in the Bob Ross in GIMP series is up. By the end of the video you should have something like:
Which isn’t too bad for a digital version using only two tools!
This is part three (of four) videos showing how to paint, like Bob Ross, in GIMP. At the end of it, you should have something that looks like:
In the final part we’ll be adding the reflections to the water, a nice big happy tree and some foreground bushes. Stay tuned!
OK folks, part two of my Bob Ross in GIMP series is now up on YouTube. Which will give you something like:
Part Three will be adding some trees, land and water in front of the mountain. Check back in a couple of days!
I keep getting asked how I do the Bob Ross style, digitally, in GIMP so I’m making a series of videos that will show – in real time – how it’s done. Part One – The Sky is up on YouTube.
The painting, thus far, at the end of Part One - The Sky.
Either subscribe to my YouTube channel, or check back here for the other parts. Part Two – The Mountain should be out within a day/two.
