  The hint to align pupils with edges of the mouth is solid gold. I've seen soo many great paintjobs ruined by just the eyes looking goofy, the subject is a true nemesis, thank you so much for helping us! If I may, sir - you have a video on painting gems, but it's a clip from a few years back, the quality isn't as great as your current materials, if there's a chance you could revisit the topic in the future please, I'd greatly appreciate it. I don't know what's your video schedule/planning process, so if that's not quite possible then it's fine, I'm a big and thankful subscriber anyway. Cheers from Poland, stay awesome sir!

  I have no idea how, with the hundreds of videos you've posted, all the topics you could have chosen, you decided to post this just as I started painting my unhelmeted custodes.  This is fantastic!

  As a newer painter, I just take the smallest brush I have and stick it around where the eyes should be. I hope I get paint in there. Then, squint one eye &nbsp;and hold the miniature out to see if it can kind of look decent in the right light/distance etc. <br><br>Your way is a lot better.

  That &quot;brighter in the bottom of the eyes&quot; really shows on the wood elf. Excellent

  That edge of the mouth trick works really well. &nbsp;Thank you, sir!

  The tip for how to align eyes finally freed me from the curse of eyes looking in different directions! I painted my first eyes with pupils in years and now I&apos;m excited to keep practicing

  Really liked the Votaan example where you point out when you do the eyes ideally. It&apos;s always terrifying to watch a video where someone paints a magnificent model then goes, ok, last things, I&apos;m gonna do the eyes! Screw that. Also, I just got those same sexy gogs. I also got the variant with razor blades for the bridge of the nose so it was good to see your modification to them! <br><br>Another extremely useful video. Thanks
