::EDIT:: 05.08.2012 Redid the entire layout of the tutorial so it doesn't scroll on forever~

My first tutorial ever! Begentle~ XD;;; It took me longer than anticipated, but its done!

This thing is pretty big so you'll need to download for the full-view.

After *T0xicEye and a few others asked about how I do these, I decided to go ahead and make a tutorial. 8D

I hope it helps out and thanks for looking! <3333

Nice tutorial. I usually can't make eyes look realistic enough, whilst still being in my style. The way you colour here has inspired me to try to adapt the technique to myself. Thanks!

I found this tutorial very inspiring. I do not even bother to do much with my characters' eyes generally. I usually just ignore them. But this made me want to try some serious eyework. I love the shading and colouring and the way you did it overall. Well done.
