Your main goal in this contest is to create a realistic interpretation of what the supplied image would've looked like as a color photograph. You should strive to create an image that anyone would mistake for a real photo if they didn't know it was colorized. Realism and believability are the key words.
You may ONLY use the original b/w source image. No additional source images are allowed. This is first and foremost a coloring challenge. Let's see your coloring ability, not your ability to integrate/blend in source images.
In short, no using custom brushes, no integrating outside sources.
