very nice.
is it a bit oversharpened? or is that pixelation from something else?

Brown hair, blue eyes, khaki uniform with brass buttons and a brown leather belt. Anyone coloring this pic would use similar colors. The background is a complete guess. One difference I can see is that I gave him a WW1 Victory Medal ribbon over his pocket. Also I didnt add special color to his lips. Glad you took the time to find a similar colorized pic. So whats the point you are trying to make?

The original source black & white was very pixelated. In fact it was a sepia that I had to take back to black & white before I could color it.
