A friend of mine lent me the chobits mangas.. I'm about to start the third one, and I love 'em!! =)

Yeah, now I'm focusing in building, 'cause it's really my vocation, that's why I'm studying architecture ^-^ That set of eyes I was making really killed me, and now I need a break =)

I recognized the eyes from this video called Manga Eyes 100 ways

I'm still new to manga/anime, I play J-RPGs a lot though. I love shojo stuff, Fruits Basket, Miki falls... Actually, that's all I've read, but I like them. I love love stories... Anyway, This is a topic for another social group.

EEE! I just submitted my Precious Stone eyes!!!
*crosses fingers*

Here's a little preview for y'all:

Those are so totally gonna be approved =) Congrats!

HOLY $#I+!!! Those are great!

Thanks, guys!

They couldn't have been made with the help of our dear friend Nina, so thanks, Nina :D

Ugh.... these just don't look right. While in Gimp the texture looked very lifelike and deep. When imported they lost it... sigh.... any tips? The colouring pattern is base colour )IE grass green, light blue, etc) "harmonizing colour", and ultra saturation around the outer edge. I think I need to redo the highlighs or something. Make the tops darker. IDK, maybe you all like them as they are? It's just... My standard are like -shady-'s sparkling eyes. So deep, sot pretty. Mine just look flat. I'm sorry, I'm probably whining like the little brat I am.

sclera needs work too. I've been playng the sims (and "The lord of the rings:the battle for middle earth" A LOT LATELY. As with trying to finish my comic. Working on some concept work for the VERY very end. See it o the "Arts/art forums soon! Assuming it doesn't get flagged

Those look nice, I can't see what the problem would be with importing?

I think i'm going to take a break from making eyes for a whiel, maybe focus on something else. Like eyemakeups or something fun like that.

...I've got it. I WILL DO... TOKI WARTOOTH SIM. *hurries away to bodyshop to plan out a Toki sim*

note: Toki is the one in my avatar.

Remember I asked a question (a rather off topic question) about what you do when you're angry? It occurred to me, I never answers my own question! If I'm emotionally distraught (and I'm a whinny, sensitive little @ hole), I tend to bite/cut/claw myself, maybe punch walls, write poetry my parents would send me to a psychiatrist for. Things like that. My BFF doesn't "approve" of my masochistic ways of dealing with emotion and got me in serious trouble. Thankfully, I didn't lie to my parents because my mother euphemistically use the word scratch not cut. So I promised not to "scratch myself" So I go from medium sharp thing to VERY sharp things. Even if I wanted to stop I can't. My arms hurt worse when I don't. Nose bleeds... Anyway, my BFF has habits I don't "approve" of either so fair is fair. I always want to taste people whom I'm close to's blood.... Am I weird? I feel like blood is the physical incarnation of a of a person's soul. Uhh... I should shut up now.

Hey Alex, did you get approved? Those eyes are sweet! If for some reason the weren't Screw the mods! (don't ban me if you're out there)

Reworking those eyes I'm trying to do. Mainly the highlights.

Yeah! They got approved!
But it doesn't recognize that I'm a creator
Oh well...

Alex, that's a cache error, according to them. Sometimes it takes a while for changes to show up (ie putting something into your Personal Picks, becoming a Creator for first time, changing your avatar or signature). I'm planning on working on another eye set in a style similar to yours Alex!

Maybe "Brutal Eyes". (yup, Metalocalypse is getting to me again).

^*rolls eyes*

I'm still working on EHoH (for those of you who don't have photographic memories, it's Ebonova's House of Horrors)
I'm on my last set, android, which is gonna be a metally thing for the sclera and a lasery thing for the iris. It's kinda hard to explain.
(To TTG, it'll look a lot like the... producer... from Metalocalypse. Y'know, the guy with those robotic eye things)

Found ,em NICE! Wow skin tones? I'm WAY to lazy for something like that. Maybe someday. I did once think about (based on MY comics') Light and Dark Elfs skin. Namely very pinkish and blue/purplish respectively. $#i+! I've been whining about the eyes, I forgot about making my light elf dark elf eyes! IT'S THE WHOLE REASON I LEARNED TO MAKE REALISTIC EYES!

Ooh! Dick "Magic Ears" Knubbler. I hate him. Whiny dude... but yeah, a good idea for eyes.

Will post "Brutal Eyes" soon. They're not gonna be pretty, or nice, or remotely sweet, gentle, kind, generous, honest, etc. THEY'RE GONNA BE BRUTAL! The most brutal eyes, since, uh... never mind.

Imagine you're in the middle of a sappy teenage Disney show. Then, the main character opens his eyes. Instead of sweet, shiny blue eyse, they're black as the darkest, darkest, darkest, darkest... night, as dark as the soul of... uh, evil person. Yeah. It's not going to make you want to kiss the person with the eyes; they're going to make you want to kill them, slap them, beat them up and leave them on a roadside to die. These eyes will drive you into a rage!!

Will post images soon.

Light elf male eyes.

They're nice, but something looks off about them.

I'm having problems with my "Brutal Eyes"... d'you guys have any suggestsions how to make eyes look more brutal and less pretty?

Less shading. Like Edward Elric's eyes, leave them sorta blank.

I'll upload these tomorrow. I don't have the time. These need a long description because when people think elf, they aren't thinking "oh! I see, they are from the elfs from the manga My Knight . Here are the upload pics.Elf eyes are meant (in my manga) to be very intense looking. Though I can't really do this, some are guy's, others are gals. The red ring is and area full of blood. Elfs, under extensive emotional stress cry tears of blood. Also, I did contacts too. If these are a success, I'll do My Knight's goblins' eyes too. maybe not, it depends.

For what it's worth, the characters eyes/modeling the eyes are

Shia, a light elf male
Luna, a dark elf female
Pearl, a light elf female
Zane, a dark elf male.

That's not really how I imagine elves. I think of them more as WoW (world of warcraft) elves. I don't really like the rings around the eyes, but I guess that's just me. I suppose I might aswell also work on some fantasy eyes while my Brutal eyes are staring at me creepily.

Exactly, My elfs are different. Some do have blue eyes but not all. Mainly this takes place in the far future, after a World wide nuclear exchange and an ice age. The elfs are part genetic mutation, and divine intervention (AKA they can use spells). I have 3 main stories all of which are linked. Remember, Tolkien reinvented many of the traditional things. Maybe people will think that my elfs are utterly stupid? Who knows? In either case, they are unique, you have to give me that

really? My elves are more like this.

Humans says that they were the first intelligent beings on earth, but they were wrong. There were communicative species before all else, called "Efas" or "elves" in modern day English. The Efas were beautiful, possessing jewel-like skin tones and large ears. Many of them had pinkish or light apricot colored skin, and ones that had different, more vibrant skins were considered to be more beautiful.



Basically, here's how it works: eyes match skintone. Skintone matches eyes. Hair is black... for pure-blooded elves anyway. Shortly after the demise of the 4th Kingdom (known as the Silver Kingdom), creatures from the North began invading and slowly began to seep into the elves' culture. The elves were eventually captured by these creatures (known as "human") and began to work in slavery to them. Many of these were males humans who began to take the most beautiful elves as wives.



Elves that lived in conjuction with the humans and made physical contact with them daily began morphing into humanlike species, losing the jewel-like skintones and adopting fair hair and eyes:



While others, born from Efas mothers and human fathers, became half-breeds.



Half-breeds and humans were scorned by the elves; the elves eventually morphed into mostly-humans.

Sort of.

Edit 1: I realized this has nothing to do with eyes, but they have got eyes that I've made in those pictures. Anyone care to comment on them? They're already on MTS, called "Forever Eyes".

BTW Ebonova, I love your new eye set "Precious Stones". so pretty.

Thanks so much guys!!!

@lovetadraw- I agree with Torako, the rings around the eyes are a bit odd. If you really want them, try blurring them into the rest of the eye.

@Torako- Make them blacker than the blackest black times infinity.

Alex - I would. Except MTS doesn't like it if it's totally black. Once I submitted a kimono recolor that wasn't even black, but they thought it was and they said no.

You got that from Metalocalypse right? What episode are you on now?

And guys. Did you like my elf story? The Giant Super Awesomesauce Elf Story Taking Up Half Your Computer Monitor elf story?

Yes yes yes, your elf story was nice.
Yeah, I got that from metalocalypse!
And I'm on the Xmas one when all of their moms come. I kinda skipped a few tho.

Woah, it took me ages to get to there! You skipped, like, a whole season or somthing, right? Which was your favorite episode?

And I will post pictures of the Brutal Eyes soon.

Yay! Brutal! Go brutal!

The best one was probably... The one with that Exodus girl where she tried to, like, kill Dethklok and take over the world.
