That colourisation is outstanding.

Thanks! I did indeed use a little trick, as u/ahmahgad suspected. It's an hybrid technique that I already used to colorize this picture of Alì. The trick is to use a roughly matching image in the color layer. Deforming it as needed with the warp transform in gimp to exactly match the to be colorized image. So I don't put colors I move them :)
here's a video outlining the process

Thanks for posting up that video, I was wondering myself how exactly you did that one, looks fantastic.

Not sure if it's a colourisation or a merge with another picture. (Still well done.)

Mate that's brilliant! It matches so perfectly, if I had seen the photo without seeing the Buscemi bust I just would have thought this a photo from the movie. Great work
