Paint an eye sketch Tutorial
The double underlined links (or in-line text advertising) can be very annoying while reading an article or tutorial but it’s a great additional revenue stream for my site. People whom register an account and login won’t be bothered with these ads.
Intro:
This time I will take you through the process of painting an eye. As usual I strongly recommend using a tablet.
Step 1:
Here I started with a hand-drawn sketch. In lack of a scanner I took a quick photo of the sketch, hence the bad quality. You can make your sketch right in photoshop, painter or whatever software package you are using. Rough outlines are enough, but you should already give your eye a characteristic shape.

Step 2:
Start to paint some thick strokes around the eye, a standard brush will be sufficient here, but of course you can experiment with your brush settings to make it easier to paint. I made some brighter strokes to indicate where my light source will be.

Step 3:
I added a few more tones. I do not really care about my colour, since I will change it in the end anyway. Also I strengthened some of the defining lines.

Step 4:
More lines to better define my eyes shape.
