I think that you would need to be more specific on how to do the eyelashes, such as where to start at from the eyelid and how thick to make them etc...
Overall, this was a pretty helpful tutorial, but I have a few questions.
How were you able to blend? (did you smudge?)
How were you able to make the highlight so bright? I try and it doesn't work out too well.
How long did this drawing take you, in general?
What instruments did you use for smudging (if you did), and did you just use a regular pencil?
Sorry for asking so much! But one last thing, are there any tips you can give me for preventing smudges from my hand? I always have trouble with that.
Thank you!

I watched the tutorial, and I have a couple comments. With any tutorial, I think it is always better if you have live footage of your technique, in order for people to take more visual pointers from it. If you have the capability, I'm sure many people would love to see a sped-up drawing session of yours. My other issue is with smudging. I used to smudge using paper towel, my finger, or smudge sticks until a teacher of mine said in passing, "We don't smudge. We aren't in high school any more." So I tried only laying down layers of pencil, avoiding smudging, and I've come up with results that I like. I don't know how much you rely on smudging, but I'd be interested in seeing a piece of yours done using layered shading without smudging.
Other than that, your eyes have always been amazing in your pieces, and have a very loose feel to them. Your contrast is always very good, and your textures.

i have no camera for recording.
i also recently had a teacher who says the same thing, i however have had teachers in the past who swear by it. so i guess its just a matter of aesthetic

It really is. You get two diverse looks from the two methods. The teacher who said this to me was a seasoned artist in the advertisement and pre-vis industry. I had another teacher who was very loose in his techniques and his teaching, who did fine art. I'm going into 3D and digital art, so I may have a predisposition to a tighter look.

Thanks for posting this! I hope, after a LOT of practice, I might be able to even make an eye look real. Appreciate you're work on the tutorial
