Description (this is a animated gif movie!, so CLICK FULL VIEW TO SEE IT!)
new method i started using to color eyeballs in photoshop.

Degree of difficulty: intermediate
Estimate time to do: 5 minutes
Tablet used for this tutorial: Wacom Intuos 2
(I used adobe photoshop CS1, but it should work w/ version 7 and up)


i wont explain it step by step cuz im lazy, but heres a short breakdown:

sketch> refine sketch> lineart> base color > shadows (use psd swiggly star brush to save time!)> highlight > add secondary color shadwo> highlight again > add sheen with white (20% opacity) > add specular highlight (that bright white dot!) > add a 'glow' to the overall eyeball on "screen" layer attribute> done!

any questions?

Wow, that looks really neat. Some of those techniques could probably be used in PaintShopPro, too.

So I'm going to this for when I get that program.

hmmm that wasn't that expensive.... But the only one's that I find on the internet cost about 5000kr and upp to 30 000kr... hmmm 5000kr is about 600dollars.... are you talking about dollars when you say that yours cost 2500???

yea, american dollars.

depends on what you need, the one that cost the most allows you to draw directly onto the monitor.
