Maybe you all will like this coloring better than the last . And if it is your first look at my work , welcome to my play ground and what I love to do . It was colored around a year ago . When I saw this B&W , I was excited to see it in color .So I downloaded it and the rest is what you see . I tried many colors on the car , and this color is what I felt looked the best
Thanks for looking and as always thanks again if you left a comment . Stay safe my friends ,Tommy
Wow. I think that's your best yet. I tried to guess what color you made the car before I scrolled down to see. I thought "I bet it's red." I was pleasantly surprised...
Excellent work.
I have to say, what you do simply amazes me.
If you didn’t show the B/W and didn’t comment, I would have thought you shot this in the 60’s. Excellent.
Beautiful work as always. Thanks for sharing. Please stay safe.

Dang, Tommy! You’re getting better and better!
It’s just a matter of taste, but my mind would have seen that sports car in a canary yellow.

I love your transformations!
I'm quite impressed and what impresses me the most is the coloring of the complexity of the dress with all of the polka-dots. I also find your skin tones to be masterclass work.
Thank you all for your very kind words . It's always nice to know others like what you do whether it's paintings , photography, coloring photos , building houses , restoring old cars and trucks etc....
Thank you all so much for taking the time out of your day to look , and the leaving a comment that brings a tear to my eyes . You will never know how much it means to me to read your comments ,Tommy

My oldest sister has a canary yellow 2002 mustang . I didn't use that color because I felt it was to strong and would of taken your eye away from the rest of the scene . If you want you can save a copy and make the car color canary yellow to your liking

I have been amazed by previous posts but don’t think I have commented. All of it is great but what you do with the skin tones is absoutely amazing.
I am anal about things sometimes and I would have started, on the car, with identifying it, then looking up what colors were used... then I would have used a color that detracted from the rest of the picture.
Again, amazing
I love this and appreciate the work involved. The lighting and composition are great--retaining that sense of humor that sets pin-up apart. I too mainly shoot pin-up so it speaks to my proclivities.
Since you asked though, I always consider pin-up to always be about the Girl. That said, I think the car is too bright, and its blue color is more demanding of attention than her green dress. If she keeps that dress, I'd go with a racing green on the car, or something that was stock--perhaps maroon. Since you have an infinite number of combinations, I'd start with the trusty color wheel and see how to mix.
Thanks for your work and for posting.
