Description
And here you go.I've made a couple of tutorials in the past on which I mentioned how I made my eyes, but as I improved the technique I use and since I believe the older ones aren't really well explained, I decided to make a new one.
Picture:
FAQ:
Which Program/Tools do you use? I use Photoshop CS4 but it should work with any other program as well. I use a Wacom-Tablet. Makes my life way easier, but when my tablet bugs again, I color with a mouse, so I can asure you, both methods work, even though with a mouse it is way harder.
How do you make your lineart? Has nothing to do with this tutorial, but funny enough people ask me this in every single tutorial I post: I use MangaStudio 4.0. The program is not for free, but for screentone-users it is worth every single cent!
What did you mean with Color-circle? Warm and cold colors. Shadows usually tend to be colder colors than basecolors, highlights warmer. Seach for other tutorials for closer explanations.
Do you take tutorial-requests? No. I don't do requests of any sort.
How long does it take to make eyes this way? Without the screenshots and all in between (
Do you have other tutorials? Yes, but most of them are rather old, so better read only the newer ones

lol, Ya before I trusted the filters more than my own hands but by now I'm so good with the smudgetool that it looks better with smudge than with a filter xD

for some reason my work constantly look really pixely and not smooth and straight like yours. I use a tablet too, but it doesn't look as great.
tips?

Eyes are (in my opinion) one of the most important parts of a picture As long as I love the eyes, the rest is of secondary importance xD

My usual workingsize is 4000x7000 xD But only because it somehow is easier for me to work in the little details this way, even though I rarely ever work with 100% zoom xD

I love your mascot *love emote*, I think what we should do is have a soft opening when groups come out. I will explain what that means in a note to everyone, but basicly of the group Admins that i have talked to that already have groups. When groups come out, we spend a week making everything perfect. *groups emote* *heart emote*
