Perfect true to life color. Skin tones are very natural looking. Thank you very much.

Thanks for putting this up!
A little constructive criticism follows: (taken with a grain of salt,....or deleted entirely as the case may be...)

It looks nice, but somehow artificial. The issue is with the ears. Their faces are in color, but their ears are mostly b/w. I guess I'm just used to the black and white versions of this video. It certainly looks a lot cleaner overall, though. Nice job.

Thanks,

Faces actually have slight variations of blue and yellow but that would be so difficult to do with a low res source.

I attempted to actually add in color variation in the face, to not great results!

Perfect skin tone ! (I'm referring to their teeth)

Problem is, when you know it's been colorized, you can't help but look for accuracy and notice how it falls short.
If films appeared for the first time and happened to be colorized, but nobody mentioned that detail, we'd be admiring the never before seen footage.
Otherwise, we end up focusing on gray ears. (why did you have to point that out?)

Tried to make the skin tone look more natural on this one, always difficult, just tried to make it a non-solid color. Also added color artifacts throughout, an attempt to make it look more realistic, tell me what you think.
