Description [LAST EDIT FOR REAL] 09/23/11 - I really hate this tutorial. If it helps you, I'm glad, but this is so different from how I do...everything now. I'm scrapping it and closing comments. If you have anything specific to ask me, send a note my way and I'll answer.

[LAST EDIT] HOLY MONKEYS ON A SEE-SAW. YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY!! Over 1000 faves? I'm so honored, I can't even express it anymore. Thanks for all the comments and faves. This is definately the most popular piece in my gallery, but if you would ever be so kind to browse through my other works, I'd be very much obliged :3

Buahaha! The return of the crappy tutorials XP

Personally, MS paint is my favorite program to draw eyes. So instead of doing a full scale ms paint tutorial, I decided to just cover the eyes ('cuz I'm THAT lazy)

Yes, I know it's messy and junk.
Hope this helps you even remotely.

[EDIT] Nearing 60...wait 600? Why doth you people keep faving this? THAT'S CRAZY. It's not even very good D:

[EDIT2] 'Kay just to clear things up even more, your eyes do NOT have to look like mine. Please try and put some emotion into them. Trust me, if your eyes's expression is good enough, you won't even HAVE to make it all shiny! I only used that generic anime eye up there to show where and how to color on a larger scale.

[EDIT3] ~~~ this tutorial helped me with expressions. Go; enlighten yourselves.

[EDIT4] Someone finally noticed that there was a better way to get rid of the sketch lines:

1) select the color of the sketch lines (use the eyedropper tool)
2) select the eraser
3) right-click to erase only the selected color
Thank you,

Or you can use the second listed tutorial below.

there's another way to get rid of sketch lines
it's longer but is very efficient (sp?)
Invert Colors
->Attributes-->Change colors to black and white after saving
It should get rid of all the lines done in color (usually sketch lines are right?)
then go back to attributes and change black and white to color
then Invert Colors again

Yes, I know. I saw it on that one tutorial with the anthro Aisha, and I was going to link to it, but I can't find it anywhere.

That method is too hard for me to remember anyways XD
Thank you, though.

TrappedInsideLife In reply to ??? [2008-03-01 22:05:52 +0000 UTC]

ohhhh! good eyes, but by the way, instead of filling in the same color as your sketch, to save time you can:
1) select the color of the rough draft
2) select the eraser
3) right-click to erase only the selected color
you may know that already, but it saves loads of time

The irony is, just after I finished the tutorial, I found this out XD.
I have considered revising this part several times in the tutorial, but I was too lazy D:

Thank you, I'll post this in the artist's comments because it's explained better than I can tell it (If anyone reads the comments that is XD)

CommanderPigg In reply to Torsle [2008-01-19 01:35:11 +0000 UTC]

So do I. But I use my tablet (but I think my works were better with the mouse). I keep using my tablet because it's a hell ovva lot easier on my arthritis-prone hands. Now I'm useless with the mouse (almost).

Torsle In reply to CommanderPigg [2008-01-19 01:37:24 +0000 UTC]


Maybe if I had a screen tablet. I'm not very comfortable with my current one.
All of my stuff, with the exception of a few things are done with the mouse.

CommanderPigg In reply to ChibiHikariChan [2007-08-18 02:00:12 +0000 UTC]

Um, the wikipedia article on tablets might explaint things better than I could

[link]

But basically it's this pressure-sensitive "drawing pad" you you to be able to draw like you would on a piece of paper, and it'll go on the computer in an art program (such as ms paint or photoshop) instead of using a mouse to draw.

I just recently got a tablet, so I'm trying to utilize it the best I can (but the tutorial above is made with a mouse)
