thee jambo Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I am trying to paint a picture of Willie Bauld and can't find any colour photos to use as a reference. So I tried to colorize an old pic. heres the result. I,m not sure if the colours are right as I never saw the man play. Just quess work on the hair and eye colour. If any older jambos out there could give me any tips on the colours it would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Can't comment on the colours but according to my mother, a huge fan of the King, his expression was more commonly a frown than a cheerful grin. Most pictures I have seen bear that view out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't this very picture made into an oil painting that was hung in the Willie Bauld suite in the old main stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still hunting through a pile of my photos as I must have a picture of the painting somewhere. You can see it in the background top left of this photo - sorry you cannot see it all.

Fingers crossed I can pull it off. All my other paintings are black and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
