Shaggy the Atarian Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I've spent a bit of time this week restoring color to some old B&W photos from days of arcade past, and have posted them online. One of those is that famous pic of Ted Dabney, Nolan Bushnell and Al Alcorn standing with the Pong machine (it turned out the best IMHO...would need to spend more time tweaking the color to get some of the others right) https://arcadeheroes.com/2019/07/10/restoring-the-colors-of-arcade-past/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy the Atarian Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 The algorithm did some ok work on the skin tones, but I had to literally hand paint a bunch of the other colors in...so I guess that works out to it being a painting of sorts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Hand coloured photographs have been around for a VERY long time -- I have a ca. 1947 print hanging in my apartment that has been hand-coloured from the original black and white image. This is the very first that I have heard of using AI to do so, however. The blue sports jacket pictured above is an interesting shade -- essentially navy blue dusted with charcoal.
