This was raised on the Beatlelinks.net forum recently, and thought that you guys and gals may be interested... Look at McCartney's face, or more particularly his eyes. This was said at the forum.... " It's all distorted looking, the eye is bulging, the colored part is way bigger than the other, they are uneven/unlevel looking but he appears to have that eyebrow raised, almost looks like a fake eye?" What're your views on this?

Here's the mirrored version which looks better: Even still, Faul's right eye does look rather odd: It almost looks like his right eye was retouched for some reason. The pupil is too large and dark.

Here's the Life mag cover, the pic harb posted is slightly different it seems. May have been another shot. Also a closeup of the man in question.. Harb's pic looks like someone with a glass eye. (but that can't be, can it??)

Ya beat me to it by a little bit! I thought I'd peek in first & see if anybody else had posted the Life cover yet... coz I just found mine.
I looks like they're different pics from the same photo shoot.

Jojo...
That close-up of Paul's face on the Life cover.... they're completely different! The white of the eye on our right is the same colour as the eyes of all the other Beatles, but his eye on our left is un-naturally whiter and is looking in a different direction to his other eye. The iris is also slightly larger.
This is really weird... previous pics of him show two perfectly identical eyes!

Jojo... That close-up of Paul's face on the Life cover.... they're completely different! They're two different photographs. Many pics of early Paul's eyes do the same thing. I'll try to find a pic that'll back up that statment. Beacuse he's probably on LSD.

Yeah, uh... noooo I don't think so... Maybe he should have been wearing his "tea shades"... I'm sorry, but a remark like that makes me think of the keynote speech made at the cops convention in the book "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas". the drug addict will hide his drug use by wearing "tea shades" ;D First off, his right eye, (our left) is entirely bigger, the whole eyeball is larger. Secondly, the pupil tends to get bigger if you smoke some weed or do some acid, but it doesn't inflate one eye and leave the other one alone. Thirdly, I doubt he'd be able to sit still for a portrait while tripping... On a side note, I'd like to know when that remark about using LSD was made... Was it JPM that told that to the reporter in confidence, and Bill was left for spin control? (and handled it badly)

And as you can see in this pic, the top of Paul's right eye (our left) bulges out more than the other. I realy don't see a difference.

The 1964 doesn't show the entire iris to be larger in one eye than the other though. There was the talk of drug-taking causing this, but surely that would just cause the pupil to enlarge? If the iris contracted and expanded because of intake then iris scanning would be impossible.

Well I was talking about the shape of the eye, and how Paul also had large irises. Another eye comparison: Top one is Faul.

It's possible Faul had an eye infection during that shoot. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause swelling of the iris in just one eye.

It looks like a different photo from same shoot.
It seems as if maybe Faul has only one brown-colored contact in.
Photo also appears to be flipped in a pitiful attempt to recreate Paul's natural hair part. Mission not accomplished!
I don't want to name names but a certain poster's insistence on remaining brainwashed is mind boggling to me.
Bye for now!

It looks like a different photo from same shoot. I agree. In the pic he posted, that was flipped, he had no hair part showing. So why flip it? And do you think that's Faul's true height?

Too bad nobody has any comments about the eye comparison I posted. And since we were on the subject of Paul's hair part:

A highly pixelated close up of the eyes from the magazine cover and then a normal sized scan of paul's face. I think this would have been better: Well I do. There's really no way to change your mind or change mine... Yes his hair is going from our left to right, rather than the numerous other pics that show the opposite, so congrats on your big find. But, did you happen to notice where the pic was taken? At the beach, and things get kinda windy there.. Maybe the wind wasn't blowing at that precice moment, but your hair gets pretty messed up after a while.

Anyway, what do you have to say about the above? If you're talking about the irises, then the clarity to determine much of anything is lacking. The edge of the irises in both pics are way too sawtoothed.

Anyway, what do you have to say about the above? Well FP..... I dunno. It seems to me that yer doin a lot of work for nothin'. Those eyes do look similar, good work, but so what? There are so many things that have most of us here convinced, the fact that there was a period of time when they had the eyes about right isn't sayin much. The idea was to get him lookin' as close to JPM as possible, right? And there were a couple of times when they had it pretty damn close.

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to say... Anyway, here's a closer pic: I have to admit that photo of Paul looks a lot like recent shots of Faul, oddly enough. He almost looks like a mini-Faul (except for the ears)! He even has the familiar facial expression we see Faul frequently using. I guess that proves they did a pretty good job changing Bill's face to match Paul's, at least on a superficial level.

Those eyes do look similar, good work, but so what? So what? IMO, the eyes are too simialar to belong to two different people. I have to admit that photo of Paul looks a lot like recent shots of Faul, oddly enough. Yes, especially the forehead.

So what? IMO, the eyes are too simialar to belong to two different people. That's what plastic surgery is for. But those eyes are in 2 different heads that are quite different, & those heads are sittin' atop of 2 bodies that have even more differences.
