How to Draw a Dragon Eye

How to draw a Dragon Eye.
Hey everyone! Here's another "How to" video, about drawing a dragon's eye. Inspired by Smaug. It was quite a challenge, and took about 3 hours.
I really hope this video is helpful in some way. Please let me know what you think.

Video: Start by adding some simple shading Me:How did you do that?

Exactly my thoughts....

[@michaeladaviemd]

I know!

[@tammyt3434]

Try some children's instructional videos. No, I'm not mocking or trolling. Mark Kistler or someone like that. People are better at going into detail for utter beginners when they're targeting children.

[@toniandersen8105]

How do you make the eyeball so dark? Do you use a marker? Nice vid!

[@theidiotyouwatch428]

Thank you for posting this and I would like to say that this is in all pencil so everybody know that you don't need expensive stuff to be good.

[@ProtoIndoEuropean88]

when you master drawing you begin to focus on the details of things sorrounding you, then you realize the beauty of those things which cannot be explained but experienced by indulging yourself into that image, then you look into someone's face and you're able to correct their imperfections, imperfections such as choosing the right hairstyle for someone that fits the shape of their face, choosing the right clothing for said person and so on.

[@StriveSelfImprovement]

i love how you put tips in the video not just the speed art keep up the good work!

[@nathdragon5]

Every single time I watch your videos I'm just amazed. You have a wonderful talent, and these videos are presented in such an easy to watch way that even people who have no skill in art (ie me) can get inspired and follow your steps! Keep it up man, love it :)

[@edainofarnor5026]

I really like your video, the fact that you explain it, and said the time that it takes and of course the drawing itself.

[@areefaally7239]

How do you get such dark lines?

[@ellessesmith503]

I was wondering how in human creation you got the eye looking so smooth. But then I remembered it was you who drew it. Lol this was actually very helpful! Cheers for it ♥ amazing work as expected ^^

[@vojtmanczplayer7585]

you best in draw dragon eye you inspired is hobbit desoliejsion of the smaug ?

[@thecrookedman6782]

Does anyone know what kind of pencil this guy is using? I really need one that can get the intense darkness that this one can accomplish

[@lauracarlson2539]

+The Crooked Man sorry for the late reply, but it looks like he is using mechanical. This is tricky, because it all depends on what lead he was using. Try looking for thicker lead, because I find that it is darker compared to thinner lead. I personally use 0.7 lead, and that achieves about the darkness that his drawing has. I know im not LethalChris, but I hope this helped you !!! :D

[@lane1170]

+The Crooked Man It's a Pentel, all I know

[@itsnotaphasemom6679]

Look in the description, it's a .7mm mechanical pencil

[@carpediem1620]

Totally want to try this but with demonic faces throughout the vein structures. Your a truly talented dude. Its fascinating how easy you create such intricate works of art.
