Virtual Make-Up: Eyecolors

I did not want to have 100s of image files for all of the different iris colors, so I made a black and white template for the texture of the Iris and let Poser control color through Material settings. For Posette, I like the RealEyes prop which mimics the way you can get a reflection on the eyes on Victoria.

Victoria2 with no color just a texture template.  Victoria2 with light blue eyes.
   
 
To add charcter I also added a bump map to the irises.

The iris and bump are available here and in the Treasures area.

    
Let's see what changed:

Here the Iris color is set to Blue05 (RGB = 148/173/197) as well as the Pupil.
(The Pupils are included to take advantage of the softer edge in the texture map.)

Here are few ranges of colors to try:

Blues in the Range of (208/220/225) to (73/116/163)
Browns in the Range of (166/183/163) to (48/82/44)
Greens in the Range of (163/133/109) to (133/76/55)

And of course you can try Purples, Yellows or any other color.
