Next Step is the eyes. this step is very vital. well all steps are vital you need to practice this the most
for the eyes reflect your character. and its important that you practice the way i show you
perfectly. kings eyes are blue so were gonna focus on Blue, and white to reflect the light.
Detailed eyes always look good, so take your time with them. The highlights in the eyes dictate
the lighting direction for the whole picture.
Create a new layer (shift+ctrl+N) and set its mode to Multiply. This lets you colour over your
linework without screwing it up, to put it simply. On this new layer, use the Paintbrush tool
(normal, 100%) with a hard-edged brush to lay down a solid base colour. The lines of your
artwork should show through the colour. Clean up any messy painting with the Eraser tool.

Line Art

Lay Down The Base Color

Now grab the Dodge tool (highlights, 50%). Put in some highlights near the one you've already
drawn, using a nice soft brush. The effect will be different depending on your settings, so
play around with it until you find what works for you.

After that, use the Burn tool (midtones, 50%) to create a bit of shadow if desired.

I don't normally do this, but for a bit of extra detail I used the Paintbrush to put in a
couple more highlights. Use a very small, soft brush and white (or a similarly light colour)
to do this.
