And he is also a big fan of old photos. He finds interesting historical pictures and colors them, helping contemporaries to look at history with a completely new look.
Sebastian's tools are documentary descriptions of those years, his own imagination and a Photoshop editor. And the result of the work looks so impressive that it is a sin not to share it.
