@ByronB posted:I agree with @Ron045 and you generally don’t need or want to paint eyes on the size of figures we are discussing here.
But since it is very hard to say no to one’s granddaughter 😀 I will share how I paint teeny tiny eyes. When the face is finished and shaded, use a very small brush and paint a horizontal line with an off-white color. Do not use pure white. Then using the same brush, paint a vertical line with black or a near-black dark blue. Don’t try to paint a dot pupil as you’ll only get frustrated. At this point the “eye” will be bigger than you want and look kind of like a black and white cross shape.
Then take your base skin color and go back and paint slightly curved horizontal lines top and bottom of the eye to narrow it down to near-scale size. This should leave you with a very small eye and the “whites” will be extremely small triangles on either side of the pupil.
do you have any examples of your painted eyes that we can see'...👀
