It's pretty nice. But according to me, it's better to use COLOR BALANCE for coloring b&w photos.
try that and the result will end up looking much better.
i searched so many times to retouch the old pic to new one but today after long long time i found this tutorial which i learned photoshop by own.
i am really thankful to you
I like the tutorial, and I have personally used the same methods you used to color black and white photos. However, for the tutorials sake you should have used played around with the brightness and contrast to give the colors some more depth, and you could have tried to find colors that look more natural as well.
