Going For Vintage

Recently I've been going through some of my old work and old techniques when I found this little gem of a photo. Once again the media make girls had done some work (crafting vintage beard wigs) that they wanted to get photographed. Well considering that these beards were meant to be from the 1800's I thought why not try and make this photo look more vintage to suit the image more. 


This is the original image, unedited 

This is a stencil I found off the internet which I used to overlay my photo
It was free and copyright free as well

This is my final image, after reverting the photo into black and white 
then erasing the edges to give a rough look I placed the overlay on top and blended it in 
 Overall I am rather happy with how this came out,
 though I think I might go back and place little white
lines into the photo to look like scratches.
That will add the aged roughed up finish to the photo.
