Super Dungeon Explore Painting Eyes

While my friend was painting Nyan Nyan he asked for a guide on how to do the eyes to match the way I'd done Candy which I'd basically used a Haruhi Nendoroid as a guide long ago. I drew him up a quick version on paper of how I recommend painting them.



I figured I'd improve on the drawing and take some pics while I was doing the eyes on the next hero. If you are wondering about that emphatic DO NOT OUTLINE bit, it's in regard to outlining the whole eye. Most people painting SDE do them like Western Cartoon characters with an outline all the way around and a small pupil. Anime eyes only have an outline at the top and the pupil is oval shaped and fills the eye top to bottom.
