Funny stuff! Who's that magician dude? This can't be David Copperfield...
Of course! A hydrant on an ancient viking ship... now I'm believing in anything!
...And how in the unholy name of Thomas Alfa Edison's power guzzling lightbulbs did you manage to open Astro's eyes?!

I'm a hardcore Simpsons fan, and I almost doubled over the second I saw that fire hydrant.

The magician is Hamilton the Magical Hypnotist, I just image googled for magician levitation.
Opening Astro's eyes was easy. I just used an erase tool set to 20% opacity, and erased his eyelids so his eyes showed through from beneath. Nah not really. I used Paintshop Pro. First I took the white colour from his belt shine and drew in the sclera and shiny bit in the middle. Then I got the black from his head and also made a brown colour, then drew in his pupils and irises. But I got them the wrong way around so I had to fix it. Then I ran a mild soften retouch over it so it would look smooth and anti-aliased like the rest of the picture. The brown was too light so I did a few darken RGB retouches on it. That was it. I usually don't try drawing in things like that because they come out badly, but it was such a small area.

I wished such a tool would exist for real.
Just think of all the weird stuff you could do with: you could erase characters obstructing the views on landscapes; remove ugly buildings for revealing the natures again; open Astro's eyes while he's asleep for studying his pupils' instant reaction on sudden light exposure...; there would be countless possibilities to use it!
I tried to pursue an idea for the pic myself, something like adding a fork lift carrying Astro, but I couldn't find a proper model for it yet...

All of them? Or just the ones hosted by Photobucket?
