I hate it. It's not that it's difficult (squiggly forking lines basically). It's just grossing me out :c I hate eyeballs anyway. WHY am I drawing them? 8C

I've never done this before and it's nasty. I don't like it. But my eye textures don't look finished without a few little veins at the edges and reusing what I've already done feels cheap.

CC. I am grossed out and can't stop at this point because the project has already eaten like 4 hours of my life.

Tell me a story. A pretty story.

Is it a class project? I've never drawn veins on eyes before but lately I've been trying to make them more in depth so they don't look like stickers on my characters face.

As for a story, the other day my cat started chasing her shadow and it was just really cute! Right now she's staring out the window like Rapunzel and listening to all the noises. It's not a pretty story but she's adorable! Also, I'm making muffins this morning! I'll give you some muffins! >w<

Nope. I decided on a whim that I wanted to make an eye texture to use in secondlife. xD I had fun up until I got to the veins. Then it was just: "UGH. No me gusta." Then, for added fun once the eyes were on the veins weren't visible and had to be redone so that you could see them in the corners. Fml.

YAY! Kitties and fresh-baked muffins! :D

I'm sorry to hear that :( I love to experiment with drawing veins in eyes, because playing around with pink and red colors can be quite fun. I hope you'll get used to it at some point, so working on your project may become more enjoyable :). What kind of project are you working on?

And as for a story... usually all sorts of fun stories pop into my mind, but at the moment, I can't think of any good one.


XOXOXO

Eeeeewwww, veins. D: It grosses me out as well. -patpat- It will all be over soon.

I will tell you a fictional pretty story. Once upon a time there was a world where nobody needed veins on their eyeballs. Everyone was beautiful, and not one person has to draw an eyeball with veins to make it look realistic. The end.

GOOD, YES?

EDIT; Typo. I had a typo. :c

I'm sure in the end the reward of a beautifully drawn eye will be worth all the gross squiggles. :)

Gross xD I never draw veins on my eyes. If I tried to, it would just look odd. My art style doesn't really work with anything realistic on it.

As for a pretty story... Don't really have one. xD except the weather forecast for the next 14 days is all sunshine and 18+ degrees Celsius. Which is awesome. I'm extremely happy. :'D

Eyes are kind of gross. I'd like to wear contacts, but I can't touch my eye. I don't really have a problem with drawing them, but that could just be I'm not very good at it. lol.

Well I actually have a fear of eyes, so I see where you are coming from.

As for a story lets go back to a magical time~~~

Once upon a time there was a magical octopus named Max. One day he stumbled across a giant rock in the ocean. He climbed up onto the rock looked around and saw a beautiful land with a small house not far away. Max went to the house opening the door and saw a strange looking creature standing on two legs. The weird creature turned around saw max and shrieked. Max was confused, how did a creature with such a pretty home look and make such a repelling sound. The creature ran away abandoning the house. Max and his sea buddies moved into the house and made rainbow cupcakes for all of the sea, and they lived happily ever after.

.... xD Where was I even going with that............

This made me think of those pastries of Fantine's... The zombie ones, ahem.. ANYWAY.

I feel your pain. Sort of. I'm not doing the project nor do I typically draw veins on the eyes, but I have the same dislike for them ahah!

Here, have a uh.. delicious standard Fantine cupcake, pre-zombification. ~ I'm really cheesy and bad at distracting SORRY. D:

Feh! Ended up scrapping the veins and just added some very very faint (practically impossible to see) ones. I love my ability to compromise with myself.
