[Ayamechan1009]

@ImmaFOOT don't you have EYES to read or are you just asking that on purpose

[ImmaFOOT]

Where did you learn that?

[TeaStrawberry]

I don't know why but this sorta sun like a piano version of the song numb.

Is it me or is anyone else thinking that to?

[inucakes]

@TeaStrawberry I thought the same~! But I'm confused to why the Artist says "Babel" instead of Linking Park instrumental..

[fataldragon9420]

@TeaStrawberry holy shit it does sound like numb

[chaoticdarkblade319]

@TeaStrawberry i think numb was based off this

[HoeruTiger]

[666AMC666]

i don't like this tutorial, you are too fast, i can't see what brushes you are selecting,

i can't see the settings...

sorry not good

you're good at art, but tutorials are to explain and help ppl, this is more like speed coloring

[TALUSTHEGOD]

Very nice Sophie, I dont have a tablet so i draw in a paper and then I use Photoshop. Sorry for the bad english, I am sudamerican.

[Imogen96]

Urgh, totally failed when I tried :S Yours is so perfect!! I'm so jealous of your drawing skills!!

[Nanodae]

I dont have a tablet :(

[lalaland5643]

I like drawing on the computer than in real life cuz in real life u cant hit the 'Undo' Button :P

[gallade121]

Numb is Linkin Park's best song, in my opinion.

[ravyne82]

@gallade121 doh! That's the name! Why do I always, and I mean ALWAYS forget that name? Even with the lyrical version! I'm so fail, lol... If that made sense

[ForoSweetAnime]

nice vid owo

im learning to use photoshop. i just bought a tablet so your vids help me a lot

THANK YOU !!! n.n

[narutolll]

PEOPLE! It's both of the songs! at the beginning it's "Numb", around the middle 2:52 it's "In The End". 100% positive. I just looked them BOTH up. Trust me I can see the difference in the songs perfectly. And I'm a big fan of Linkin Park, so I would know.

[PublicLibraryx]

y'know... if you don't have a tablet... it's easier to draw the picture by hand then scan and edit it right?? i mean.. that's what some people do right?

[chaoluv041]

looks so realistic =O

[TengenToppaDrill]

I think all of those are girly eyes... because the scone one need to be put into context to make it male. If looked at just like that... they are all female eyes...

But good job, not done by a mouse i see...

[KagamineLenX3]

@TengenToppaDrill err...since when are males subjected to a certain type of eyes? =.= Sure, TYPICALLY they might have the same, certain type of eye in a drawing style, usually in shoujo or something, but last time I checked, eyes were eyes, they didn't have genders...They can be male or female, it's works like this in real life, why not anime? This is why I like mangakas that draw each character differently, unique to it's own, not like having a gender template and adding different hair...

[narutolll]

@KagamineLenX3 Are you serious? Your joking right? EVERYTHING on the human body has a gender weather you see it or not. Their are many differences in just the male and female eye's not including every other part of the body. If you haven't noticed it, you have absolutely no observation skills. NONE, what so ever. How do you think a girl looks like a girl? How the HELL do you think a man looks like a man? How do you think a boy looks like a boy, or how a girl looks like a girl???

[KagamineLenX3]

@narutolll I'm saying that you shouldn't stereotype how a man is supposed to look and a girl is supposed to look. I've seen guys that look more like a girl than girls. You tell them apart by mainly the human anatomy and usually genders have certain looks due to habits. (hormones too though) I've seen guys with sparkly big cute eyes and girls with more narrow ones. guys with long eyelashes and etc. In real life, even if a guy has a "feminine" eye, it doesn't mean their eye is a girl.

[narutolll]

@KagamineLenX3 The thing you don't realize is that its very possible for a male to have female eyes for example. It happens in the whom while they are forming Inside of the mother. How do you think it's possible for a female to have a male genitalia? It's EXTREMELY rare, but possible. other parts may not be. The main way to tell if a female is a female is basically how they look. Yes, parts of the body HAVE GENDERS. It's that simple. Unless you can prove to me otherwise, just admit your wrong.=)

[KagamineLenX3]

@narutolll Now you're just contradicting yourself. I never said parts of the body didn't have genders, in fact, I said the opposite =.= By ANATOMY, meaning the components of the body. Do you know why? Because of hormones. An eye can be feminine or masculine looking (based on society's standards) but their appearance doesn't define it as a girl or a boy. You only know if you test the DNA for the chromosomes, so unless you have ESP, your so called "observational skills" fail.

[KagamineLenX3]

@TengenToppaDrill I'm sorry if that sounded really critical, because that wasn't really my intention, by female I'm guessing you meant feminine and by male, masculine but yea, that was just my personal peeve in a lot of manga and anime...

[shadowsgirl5678]

the song numb with iano is beast

[zRAZOR213z]

Wow you're a very good drawer!!

[PublicLibraryx]

Tablet :D

[YamiFanGirl101]

can anyone tell me how to shade HAZEL eyes? i can't get the green right.its so frustrating.

[ravyne82]

@YamiFanGirl101 hazel green-blue or hazel green-brown? There are many types of hazel eyes actually, as hazel actually means the pigments in the iris have two to three varying hues, such as blue and green or blue and gray, or like mine, blue, green, and gray. It is why hazel eyes are able to change color due to mood and contrasting colors in clothing and environment.

[Nicro327]

@ravyne82 Change due to mood? Lol, yep my eyes turn red when I'm angry.

[ravyne82]

@Nicro327 I'm pretty sure even in hazel eyes that isn't possible... if they do, you should see a specialist. Your eyes can only change to the colors in the iris, for instance blue and gray, you can have a variety of shades of blue or gray, but you can't have brown or red. If your iris has brown or (for arguments sake) red, then they could change to shades between those colors.

[Nicro327]

@ravyne82 Wow, you can't even tell I was being sarcastic ._. Your eyes cannot change color due to mood. Look it up, if some people were smart, you wouldn't need to look it up. Unless you have magical powers and you can change the way light reflects off of your iris, DUE TO MOOD. It will not be possible.

[ravyne82]

@Nicro327 uh... actually you are wrong. Pupils change size due to mood. The larger or smaller the pupil, the more or less a secondary color is present and therefore would mix with the primary color to make a different color. Look it up yourself.

Oh, I did get the sarcasm, I just chose to turn it back on you... Its funny how ppl can dish it out, but don't get it when its turned around on them. Instead of foolishly trolling when someones being helpful, do some research.

[Nicro327]

@ravyne82 No, it's not funny how you think you're smart when "turn it around" or some shit. You end up looking like an idiot. They don't change color due to mood, that's finally. Unless you can contract or expand your iris(Which I can actually do) it will change color. But we are not talking about manually, only due to mood. The only time your pupils will expand or contract is when you are in extreme danger, or in love with someone you see, or when extremely happy(Due to adrenaline, not mood).

[Nicro327]

@Nicro327 It will not change due to mood, if it does, that's the adrenaline, or the exception of seeing someone you love(Your pupils open up to let you see more). And when I say extremely happy, I mean the after affects of adrenaline(It leaves you calm and happy when under positive affects of adrenaline). And I don't believe love is a mood, more of a feeling. So that sums it up.

[ravyne82]

@Nicro327 Ok, we are going to agree to disagree. I've no time to waste continuously arguing with you. And if you'd like to not look like an idiot, I'd work on your grammar. I do have one question tho... if what I said was so idiotic, then why were you actually agreeing with me? "Unless you can contract or expand your iris(Which I can actually do) it will change color" ... Unless you're talking about contacts... And love is an emotion, not adrenaline... emotion is the same as mood in this sense.

[Nicro327]

@ravyne82 First, your grammar sucks and has millions of mistakes, just by glancing at it. Second, I never said love = adrenaline. Read the context. Third, color changing due to mood is involuntary(If it was possible). Fourth, when you someone's body that you love/like, your iris opens opens up to let you see more basically. And naturally, humans think big pupils are cute or they like them. That's why people always refer to puppy dog eyes(Why do you think anime eyes are popular?).

[Nicro327]

@ravyne82 And when I mean "If it changes that's adrenaline". Your body starts pumping adrenaline when the feelings extreme fear or extreme happiness are triggered, this is due to the flight or fight response. Your pupils are not bigger just because of mood, it's because your senses are being heightened to an extreme level, sometimes this can even kill you if enough adrenaline is pumped for to long during a dangerous situation.

[Nicro327]

@ravyne82 One last thing. Emotion and mood are the same exact thing, just different words meaning the same thing. You should know what you're talking about before you jump into something you have not even read up on. And weird enough, I have. Oh, and work on your grammar, then you can be a true grammar nazi, okay?

[ravyne82]

@YamiFanGirl101 I think you would take your base color and color it in and then you would use the secondary color, blue or brown or whatever and color the edges of the iris and around the pupil with that. As that is where the secondary colors tend to rest in an average two color hazel eye.

[animerayX3]

THANK YOU because most people say: "This is a anime tutorial" when all it is, is a *Watch me draw!* video!! could you do one on how to do hair, cuz i really need help on hair... so...yeahh

[whiteladyyan]

[Gordantus4u]

how the fuck can anyone draw on the computer? I can draw just fine with a pencil but with a mouse it's just so messy

[heyaanimerocksheya]

Some ppl can draw REALLY good on the pc with a mouse, otherwise you'll have to buy a Pen Tablet if you don't want to draw with hand =P

[Sukirvijes]

I would draw with mouse, but mine's a cheap one, so it's hard to draw these waves~ cause the mouse is jumping through pixels - especially when it's optical and it's not on a 120% smooth surface

[litovietlan]

she probably used a tablet.
