Ok, so I've started adding the greys and blacks in this picture. I find that I have to look at the reference photo a lot since the eye is so different then what I'm used to. I can't wait to get started on the green!
I'm burnishing between every layer that I lay. This is helping me achieve the shininess that the eye needs and it's also getting rid of the pencil lines, making it look more like a pastel or acrylic work then a colored pencil piece.
This last picture shows the drawing next to the reference photo. I'm trying to intensify the colors in my piece, as well as make it bigger. These sequence pictures help me keep myself in check. I can look back and find places where I went of track, and I can see things in a new perspective when I'm not looking at it up close.
