This was great! It actually helped me out a lot.
I've been trying to draw a bit more realistic lately, and this was a good way to start.

I was also wondering if you would mind me putting up what mine ended up looking like and I'll put a link to this and give you credit of course ^.^
Just thought it would be better if i ask first xD

I heard once that the eye always has a light source (which makes sense since we can see right?) So how come the pupil is completely black without a light reflected in it?
(awesome tutorial btw! )

you don't have light reflected in the pupil, normally, seeing as the pupil is just a hole. There's light reflected on the iris, and this isn't as noticeable a light source, presumably.

TimeAgentAvril In reply to Child-of-God [2010-09-23 07:38:40 +0000 UTC]

XD Sorry, Just looked in the mirror and remembered that there's a bit covering the pupil so light can reflect off it, but not always, depending on where the cource is XD Sorry.

SeaWhisper [2010-09-07 22:52:32 +0000 UTC]

whoa, I've read the whole tutorial, watched it on youtube, watched few more videos of yours on youtube and I must tell you that you should do more such tuts, you're deeply skilled beast when it goes to explaining how to draw and why like this, and make it in such funny, nice and supportive way really I've seen a few books about drawing and painting (because I rather read books about it then do it ) and only few of them were such informative and user friendly really you should think about making a book on how to draw next to your normal work, you're gifted for this
