Eyeballs 101

The toughest task in figure painting is getting the eyes right.  I sectioned this image from a painting by one of the Old Masters and thought it could be useful the next time a modeler has to paint a face- get the eyes right and the rest is cake.  Just remember to use a fine, high-quality brush to tackle the details; any model paint will work, just thin as necessary to keep the consistency right.
