I thought WoW swallowed you... lol

Nice AAing also and i fancy the pallet one thing i don't know about is how tall the pupil is, maybe a little shorter and its a wrap.

Also maybe maybe add something to the white area around it like maybe making it bloodshot.

Higher contrast in the pallet, AA the pupil(that big thing in the center)

Not sure at all where your going with that. >_<
Elaborate?

Like there is a light that is reflecting off the eye, and since the eye is watery it glistens and shines.

Oh, i see.
Ill toy with it here in a sec. Been sick these last 2 days so i have some free time. :D

Edit.


Do you mean something more like that? XD

Second Edit:



I hate when i notice things after i post.
Fixed some rough stuff on the little shine on there. looks more smooth now? :D

Oh yeah, going back to Chris Gayles post, i dont really want to add a bloodshot aorund the eyes. I feel almost as if it would take attention away from the pupil, which is the main focus of this peice.Afraid it would accually make it look worse, :D

That's good but I think he meant to add more contrast. You should make the orange brighter, as it is in his reference pic. It'll give the look and feel of light reflecting off the eye.

Sorry to bump, but didn't want to make a new post.

Im having some trouble. I cant quite get the scaley look i want. Help? D:

Note: this is just a outline, I still have to smooth some things out. So right now, all i am REALLY concerned about is the texture to get the scale. Not really looking for any other advice as of now.

You are not using the dark colours outside the eye to the same effect as you did inside, Try it out and it may have a sharper look to it, Also it doesn't have to be a perfect oval... make it have a little more shape
