"Their eyes were different, too. Not the gold or black I had come to expect, but a deep burgundy color that was disturbing and sinister."
~from Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

That passage inspired my shift from doing a more natural eye color, to making the eye red.



Well this work is actually between a vexel and a photo manipulation because I haven't done the skin. I'm actually still working on it but I got impatient, so I decided to upload this. I'm gonna try to make skin more realistic in the final vexel, with an appearance like moonlight. But that might change seeing as how I liked this one enough to put it up on DA. In addition, I need to work on making the eye more realistic. It looks to me like it's made of glass.

Any comments on the nature of the work or the choices I've presented reguarding the direction in which I'm taking this peice are welcomed.

I will refrain from using the "Encourage Advanced Critique" option because I don't want to discourage anyone from leaving simple comments. I know that happens to me quite often.
Wow this is probably the longest comment I've ever written.

Might scrap this later.
