I just cleaned them up and adjusted them to suit my purposes.

# I took my time over it, smoothed out the originals' slightly lumpy edges and reconstructed the whole hand.
The real trick is matching the grain and focus of the Casablanca pic tho really, the original plate has a very slim focus range and I had to match that, only the eyes are actually in good focus, even the edges of the head and his antenna are slightly out of focus.

The original actor must have had to stay pretty still!
