Mystique-ish Photoshop

Alright, so take a perfectly good iris highlight and turn it into something cartoony and dumb. This is my playing around with layer masks in Photoshop. Somehow, I've made it a long time without figuring out that layer masks make life easier in Photoshop.

That eye and hairline need some work, but this was mostly a get-a-feel-for-the-tools session.
