Description
Download for full view! (it makes it easier to read the writting)Hello my friends and fellow deviants.
I bring you my promised eye tutorial!
Woah, I really had no idea how long it would take me to make (4-5 hours), I had to start over 4 times because I ran out of room.
I really really hope that this will help you in some way.
And I just want to tell you all that it isn't really as hard as it looks, its just hard to explain what I mean without many words. If you aren't sure, don't understand something or wonder what on earth I was rambling about, just send a comment and I will reply to the best of my ability. ^^Oh and excuse my dry sense of humor, it was keeping me entertained as I was writing it up. And sorry for the annoying arrows, I hope they make sense.
I made reference to my phantomrider drawing which can be found here: [link]
and the final painting can be viewed here: [link]
I would really appreciate comments and if you attempt an eye drawing please show me
I would love to see what you did.Love and hugs.
Crystal.

I try to look at every artistic 'how-tos' and try to learn something off of it. I'm going to eventually try my hand at portraits. I'll look up something here if I forget something.

Oh no you don't!
GIMP is totally seperate to Photoshop, a completely different program... it does the same things as photoshop except its free (and in my opinion... easier
