This is great! Thanks a ton!!

Do you know how to make a small gradient? For instance, in a character's eyes?

zumithekitty In reply to Lightning123698745 [2013-07-01 08:48:01 +0000 UTC]

i do when you make the gradent all you do is make it smaller you know re size it to be small then what you do is use the circle tool(if your eyes are circular)then just white out the rest after that add the puple and eye shine then your done ps if the eyes ur making arent a circle fully but the edges or what not are,you can just erase parts of it to your liking then line it and now you have super cool shadded eyes and you dident have to go on sumo paint or what ever to get them if it help plz thank me

I'm not quite sure I fully understand the question, sorry.

If you're asking how to make the eyes transparent, then the answer is that it's the same technique for making the body transparent.

If you're asking how to make a colour gradient and make that fit into the area for the eye, then look at the "step 7" link in the artist's comments.

Hope that helps!

Hm... look in the artist's comments, and follow the link to the tutorial on step five.
