Matched the colour of the edge of the iris with a brush, and redid the outline in that? Managing to keep the highlights above the pupil really helps, I think.

yeah.. if they did the colour/value matching by hand that's insane... i was hoping they used some kind of "goo" filter for the shape or a merging tool that takes the values from one and fits it into the shape for the other...

um.. Trillian is a free IM client that lets you log into AIM, ICQ, YahooIM, and MSN Messenger, without the ads...

*blinks* It just takes a click to--

--ah. Miscommunication. I was saying that colour matching should be easy and is probably never done by hand, since even the crudest programs seem to have an eyedropper option, not suggesting that they'd done the whole thing in MSPaint.

They can do thigns rather close to that physically, using whole-eyeball-covering contact lenses these days.
