Default Harley Mural on an old old building

I saw this image while I wa sin Arizona a few weeks ago. What I did was a heck of alot of cloning and scratch removal. (Am still not overly pleased with the floor tho) Starightened image out. Used Topaz Adjust plugin to boost the colors and details. All on duplicate layers. Lastly added a vingette and then erased ares such as the lights and faces to keep them brightPA309495

You have quite a bit of patience to undertake that task. You did a wonderful job!

hey yeah thats fantastic, great job, only an hour....nice to hear ppl can work that quick.....mmm me, a lot longer needed to do that!! (if i could that is)!
The shadows just where you touched up the missing section, where the shadow of the guy was kinda missing,the one thing i noticed is the lines that show the window frames shadow i feel as though they need to be put in to finish it off......i have no idea why i said that because i couldn't do it, but i figured you must be flipping good to have done that much so quick!! hehehe, great job, something to be proud of.

I could not get the shadows in to save my life. aything I did seemed to have made the lines in the wood look out of wack so I gave up and left it as it is.

Thanks everyone.
I keep saying this as I am still learning. The more you learn, the better it gets!
