How to Draw an Eye

Postby Potato Lover » Fri Dec 02, 2011 3:49 pm

It took me forever to find a way to draw an eye =P So here is how i do it so you guys can have fresh ideas.

Step 1: First draw the eye shape and fill it in with black
Image

Step 2: Scribble a dark color of whatever color you want the eye to be (in this mine is a green eye).
Image

Step 3: Smudge the dark color you chose with the black. When smudging do it up and down in a circle, go with the direction of the eye (with the smudging tool's size under 20).
Image

Step 4: Scribble a neon color of whatever color the eye is. When scribbling don't scribble a lot, do more scibbling on the brighter part of the eye and less scribbling on the darker side of the eye. While at this stage you can add some brown to give it more contrast.
****I forgot to take a pic of this step, sorry****

Step 5: Smudge all the colors together, with the smudging tool's size under 20.
Image

Step 6: Now add the pupil with black.
Image

Step 7: Smudge the edges of the pupil with the coloring of the eye (with the smudging tool's size on 1).
Image

Step 8: Now add lighting. Since my eye is green, most green eyes have yellow so I added lighting with pale yellow. You also want to add some white lighting where the reflection is in the eye.
Image

Step 9: Now add where the reflection is in the eye with white or a bright color (Use the pen with the size 2).
Image

Step 10: Now smudge the reflection, then smudge the whole eye together with the smudging tool on 1.
Image

I hope this helped you out, please let me know if you have any questions.

It looks good, the only tips i really have is that the right side of the eye wasnt fully smudged. Take the smudging tool on size 1 and smudge it like you did on the left side.
