Description I get asked to make tutorials a lot. Like.. A LOT. @__@

It's simple and probably hard to understand, but here you all go. My most requested tutorial: How to color eyes.

If you have questions just ask! I will list some info here in the description as well. <3

- I work on SAI, so this was done on SAI
- Settings are pretty much whatever the program comes with (I'm lazy)
- Pen tool for drawing in the pupil and shiny dots on the eyes, ectect
- Water tool for blending
- Airbrush tool for adding soft lights

RaineSeryn In reply to Queen-RooniiSuu [2014-06-02 14:15:05 +0000 UTC]

I personally can't find one in Paint tool SAI, but I know there is one in photoshop. If there's not a tool for it you can just blotch 2 colors down and use the water tool to smooth them out and blend them. Gradient just means it fades from one color to another ^_^

Echoingdreams [2013-07-05 07:06:07 +0000 UTC]

Do you have to use a new layer withe each step ;w;






sorry I'm new to sai and digital drawing

👍: 0 ⏩: 2

RaineSeryn In reply to Echoingdreams [2013-07-05 07:14:03 +0000 UTC]

The base color is 1 layer, then the shades are another, then a layer set on multiply (says which set on the tutorial), then one set to luminocity (also says), and a final one above everything for the shines. You could do the layers pretty much however you want tho. XD


I hope that helps! And no worries, I do not mind questions one bit! ^_^

IamLibertyy [2013-05-22 06:23:37 +0000 UTC]

may i ask how to add soft gradient? i also use piant sai by the way.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

RaineSeryn In reply to IamLibertyy [2013-05-22 15:16:59 +0000 UTC]

What I usually do is put down the 2 colors and use the water tool to blend them to look like a gradient. I don't know if there's an easier way to do it. XD
But you could also maybe use a large soft airbrush and gently brush on color over the other.

I hope that helps!

Prolly the best coloring tutorial I've seen by far, since you actually went step by step by step by step by step, and so on.

Nice job.
