I GOT MY EYES ON YOU ~ PAINTING THE EYES (PRETTY BADLY)
EYE EYE CAPTAIN!
*****
Hey hey lovely peeps. Firstly just a short disclaimer regarding this post. I used a couple of guides that I found on Facey B with no credit for painting red eye lenses. I’ll attach these in the images but they’re not mine. Secondly my interpretation of those inctructions isn’t the best haha. As in they look pretty awesome to me but probably a bit crap to others. I could go over them & try again but jeez I want to finish this project one day & I’m happy to hopefully get better on the next batch of sisters. Anyway here’s the PAINT list. YES!
PAINT LIST
*****
• CONTRAST FLESH TEARERS RED
• NULN OIL
• CONTRAST BLOOD ANGELS RED
• TROLLSLAYER ORANGE
• DAEMONIC YELLOW
• WHITE SCAR
NO STEPS THIS TIME

Apologies I didn’t really see the point this time in taking a picture between each step as I’m using my phone. The close focusing is a bit crap so I’ll describe how I got to the end result.
First I started with a layer of Contrast Flesh Tearers red across the entire eye lens. When this had dried I applied a coat of Nuln Oil to give them that black outline around the edge.
After this I added Troll Slayer Orange to the bottom of the eye lens & towards the nose on each side. (I hope that makes sense haha)
I then applied a tiny coat of Daemonic Yellow to the very front of the eye lens closest to the nose to give that gradient of yellow, orange, red moving backwards.
Finally I added a tiny reflection dot of White Scar to the top back portion of the lens.
THAT’LL DO

Not the best tutorial but hey at least I’m showing you the rubbish bits too haha. If you follow those guide pics in the images you’ll no doubt do a better job than me. Like I say though I’m happy to keep them as they are & hopefully will see an improvement in eye lenses at the project progresses.
See you on the next one guys!
Much Love
