Nice!

I'm still having trouble keeping mine centered.... ugh!

Where does the pain come?
Where does it start?
I know not...

@TTG- they're too big and manga-like. The pupils look too small (or invisible, on the Poisoned Princess one).

Well, all eyes don't have to be realistic, I like big anime-ish eyes once in a while.

Pupils grow smaller as people are scared. The idea of this eyeset Gravestone Eyes is that the wearer of the eyes is horrified, intoxicated, and infuriated at what they are seeing, so it makes sense the pupils are small/invisible.

They are not meant to be realistic. Yeah. Sorry for cutting you down Alex (not really, but I have to say that, so yeah). But I can see the pupils in the poisoned princess. It's quite small but it is VISIBLE.

Ok, fine, I stuck my head closer to the screen and stared for a bit, but there IS a black dot. Remember, I made them using YOUR technique and it is YOUR black dot, you told me what the diameter of the dot should be (filling in the black space on the side... center to left or something like that?) but meh.

OKOKOK... but the Poisoned Princess ones STILL look plain blue and not that great...

They kinda remind me of EstherBella...

They're purple... even with my glasses off I can tell what color they are... EstherBella wasn't THAT bad, ok, it just wasn't the greatest. It at least was completely custom content and not a pile of Maxis recolor... I think it's because of the horrible lighting in Bodyshop that it looks bluish also... eww.

by the way, a new one comes along, it's called "Forever Eyes", there are 6 in total, I quite like them, but how do you? They're sparkly... very sparkly... like stars, which I've been quite interested in latley (that is, astrology and stars and things like that). BTW Alex thanks for the original picture (it's the first one, the purple one).

Well here they are, to see their titles look at the grey text after you have fullviewed it in the lower of the white frame. Thanks again for the feedback!

Haha. You've quickly learned how to shut me up about eyes, right?? Just say "...I like them! Very much!" No seriously though... I need to know what I can improve on otherwise I'm just going to submit them, get rejected, and go on even worse probation than I'm already on. Ok, so the kimonos I made a while ago sucked, I have no idea why I tried to upload them, but... meh.

Edit Come on, dosen't anyone other than me have eyes they need to be critiqued?? I thought the point of this thread was to get eyes you people have made critqued by others because the other thread was getting a little longish.

Well I don't know what you're doing wrong, but you need to make them less manga-like... try making the irises smaller.

Well, here are my irises for one set... they're called Autumn eyes, there are 3 more styles in the whole set, called Seasonal Eyes.

Hmm... I wanna see them on a sim in BS cos you lost your game, I like these quite a lot but it's very difficult to tell without seeing them on a Sim... so yeah... I know its a pain to start it up but please.

My favorite color seems to be the 2nd one, the gold one

B-b-b-but... my eyes are MAGICAL!!! >:C That's why they look like that!!! And hey, i didn't find the picture, YOU did.

Red and green are CHRISTMAD COLORS!!! which reminds me of chocolate cos I always eat lots of chocolate round Christmas time. Yayyy I like the purple, aqua and blue ones the best... Ardent Amethyst, Austere Aquamarine, and Severe Sapphire.

I just noticed that I have a thing for making phrases like that... remember "Poisoned Princess" and "Austere Aquamarine" sound kind of similar.

Looks nice! Mine look a little off center, but I measured it, it's just an illusion from the shading. I hope.

I hope to have them up soon. I've been taking a break from Simming, so It's a pain to load it up just for pictures. I wish they took BS pics, if you have the lighting mod.
I like them though!

Thanks! Yeah. It sucks that you have to have in-game pics for eyes. Especially since I can't find my game

WHAT?? You poor sucker..... Couldn't you buy a more resent EP or something? I don't know how to help. I know how you must feel, one of my old games got stuck in our computer when it crashed. It's still in there. We'd like to get it out, but we don't know how!

you coulds still use body shop pics to show us. It occurred to me, maybe "BS" isn't the best way to say bodyshop.

Yeah... I'm doing the screenshots for her if she wins a contest we're having between us, but if she loses then she has to beg for it from me (or something like that). Heehee. I'm so evil. And by the way... even if she bought a new EP, it probably wouldn't work is she couldn't find the original CD. I don't know myself, I haven't play Sims 2 in a long time (as in game play, not go in, take screenshots, and get out). Please critique my eyes too?

@Ebonova: I like the summer eyes better, the winter ones are a little rough around the edges if that makes any sense to you. Or you might be on vaca already, which sucks cos I'm stuck here alone. Bleh.

@Lovetadraw: well Bodyshop's lighting kind of is BS... so yeah

What happened to me? (looks around) did I die?

And ebonova, can we see them on a Sim? In Bodyshop?

Unless you're in Hawaii already, which means we're not going to get to see it in Bodyshop at all?

@Torako: Try making them a bit more round and tangent with the bottom eyelid. Also it would help adding a white sparkle at the top of them and maybe drawing some darker lines that come from the pupil =) I like how they look though ^-^

@Alex: Both sets look really nice, but if I had to say something I would make the pupil a bit darker in the Winter ones and define a bit more the edges of the iris. And in the Autumn ones I would do the same with the pupil and.. I think that's it =) Great job!
