GIMP 2.10 Tutorial: Restore and Repair Old Photos with Severe Damage

In this GIMP 2.10.6 tutorial, I show you how to repair or restore severely-damaged old photos that may be ripped, wrinkled, faded, blotched, or otherwise damaged in any way. I use a variety of techniques to fix this damaged photo, including using the Heal tool, Heal Selection Tool, and Paint tools – as well as using a Wacom Tablet to make a lot of these repairs.

This is a fairly tedious process, but the final product is truly stunning as it can completely restore photos that are decades old back to (or close to) their original quality.
