    The “eyes” have it! Is there some tried and true techniques you can provide for successfully rendering realistic human eyes? This skill is absolutely imperative if one expects to recreate a decidedly realistic face that doesn’t look like its a cross between a human and an extra terrestrial. Lets face it, if the eyes aren’t right, then nothing else matters. If I can acquire this one lacking skill, I believe my sculpting skills would increase exponentially…Thanks again.

    Paula,

    I have several different methods for sculpting eyes depending on what I am trying to achieve in my sculptures. The link below is one of the ways that I sculpt my eyes.
