Description EDIT: As of 2012/2013, I no longer use this exact method. I still do the base the same, but I do the lighting a little different and mess around with layer effects and such. If I can stomach making another tutorial, I'll make a new one someday. :^)

----

You people are lucky I love you all so much, these tutorials are a bitch to make. Not exactly hard, just so tedious! And me, being good ol' perfectionist me, has to try and make them somewhat pretty.

Anywho, this is basically how I do my eyes. I alter it a little every time for each horse, but you get the idea, right? Ask away at any questions. I tried to make the font easier to read, lemme know if its any better.

The horse can be found here: [link]

The manipulation I used the horse in can be found here: [link]

As always, this is mine, not yours. Look, don't touch. Feel free to /link/ too it, and credit is always nice. :^)
