    I'm trying to help a family member restore a painting of my Great Great Grand parents, The original painting was Rolled and heavy damaged over years.

    My Photoshop skills are rookie to average.

    Any advice on how to remove stains and improve a little?

    I've taken off the cracks Easy Enough, and done the basic tidy up and clean. but not sure where to go from here.

    Don't want to go down the re-painting route.

    Did you scan it in at max resolution? My p/s skills wouldn't be much either so wouldn't be one to give "advice"! Did you get it finished, would be up for giving it a go if you want to email it to me. I'll send any results back to ya, just for practice on my part more so than anything else!

    Thanks for the Help.

    Doesn't look too bad.

    It was an Idea for a present for my Grandmother, shes not too well at the moment, and being 86, thought a nice repaired picture of her parents might lift her spirits.
