Description Everyone liked my last eye tutorial , so I decided to make another one that demonstrates my usual way of coloring eyes!
I use paint tool sai for this, but the techniques should be pretty transferable to other programs!
Keep in mind that this is just my way of doing things and sometimes I make things more complicated than they need to be. Experiment with adding your own flares and twists and make it your own~

This style is demonstrated in this speedpaint of mine, if you would like to see it in action.

I DONT KNOW WHAT PART OF ME THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO HAND WRITE ALL OF THIS. I just didn't want to have to use photoshop bc it always freezes and SAI doesn't have a text tool TT^TT

my hand writing is actually usually much messier I just tried really hard to make it legible for this ; v ;
I also write (and draw) at like a 45 degree angle so I had to put a line down so I could write straight OTL
