Vanda Tran my friend does that when we are drawing together (or at least she used to) when she tries to imitate my art. This is the conversation; My friend: Gah!!! Ill just cover THAT eye with hair! *Looks over at my drawing* YOUR DONE?! And you drew *both eyes?!* Me: ya. My friend: TEACH ME!!! Me:ok. Then we have to go back to class (im in middles school XD) i guess im just that introvert who spends all their time drawing because they have nothing else going on in life.
lol I wish I could copy and paste (or alt+shift and drag) the second eye on a digital piece I'm working on but it's of Natsu Dragneel and a bit of his bangs cover one of his eyes, so I kinda can't just copy and paste.
God dang it. You were the person who would literally inspire me and keep me going everytime i would want to "drop" drawing. And you sir, you would always make me want to draw more and more. And here i am again! And the cycle repeats itself. Please, keep it up!
DayBroken lol yes Mark. You are indeed the best part of any chest of drawers. The bearer of the mightiest shirt. Master of the Tee. Ruler of the Tank. Emperor of the coat. Slayer of all who oppose your sleevedom. None shall remain once your tiefulness has shown his true collars. ;)
Eye can't do a second I .-( Problem Solved: Draw a long fringe over the other one or make it have an eyepatch yarrr. AHHH WHY ARE HUMANS SO COMPLICATED TO DRAW, why couldn't we just be circles with hands ;(
This might sound strange but what I do is look at the first eye, measure the distance and draw the second eye by looking at the first simultaneously. I draw the second eye using my peripheral vision... yep... that's weird lol, but it works for me.
Or don't draw any eyes at all, who needs eyes either way/s This is a horrible tip btw, you do need to learn to draw both eyes, this isnt a solution you are just basically throwing the problem under the carpet
Solution : eye patch , winking eye, cyclops , blind fold, hair over the other eye, And my fave... Doodle over the eye! Example: draw a random dinosaur infront of it, or my fave a treeeeeeee! Lol dont do that 😂😂😂
I'm a special snowflake that never really had a problem with drawing the other eye, and all it took me was a bit of practice, now all of you must give me special attention because of my obvious superiority.
My ex who passed away in 2009 at only 15 years old got me into your work through your mangas/comics. Despite being obsessed with them and loving the story and relationship of the characters similar to us in the series MikiFalls, I almost forgot about owning them completely due to a lot of life struggles over the past few years including being hit by a truck and almost dying and having to relearn how to walk, until this video popped up and now I'm getting an overwhelming sensation of nostalgia, I need to find those books now hopefully they're still around. I'm glad to see you're still making things. You're an amazing artist, please keep it up.
markcrilley thank you very much. I wish I was I'm actually just really lucky. I'm 97lbs and that's literally the only reason I didn't die l. I was hit by a truck going 56, and I fractured my pelvic bone in five spots, severely broke my femur, tailbone, pubic, and got deep bruises all over my already messed up back. (scoliosis, herniated discs, fatty tumors between two discs) so it was a real wake up call when I was alive and in excruciating pain in the trauma ward. I'm extremely fortunate I wasn't sucked under the vehicle I would likely be dead.
Mark Crilley, you truly amaze me with your drawing ability, two beautiful eyes and hair that just goes great with them, I wish I could just draw a set of eyes this good and create a character just like that
Hey Mark I ordered your entire series of Brody's Ghost yesterday and I'm supposed to get it on Thursday I can't wait to read it and I'm really excited. I love your videos and your drawings and I hope to be as good as you someday :)!
Mark, is there anyway you could do a tutorial on stippling? I'm a big fan of this particular art style and would like to further better myself at it. I'm such a huge fan of yours and you have shown me quite a bit of different techniques that I find myself doing.
Thank you so much mark. I also ask if you could do a video on layering color using prismacolor colored pencils because I seem to be struggling with knowing which colors work well with each other (like different skin tones, hair, and clothing). But I do have a question: How can someone who draws by what they see (visual drawers) become a drawer who can draw what they have in mind (drawing without visual aid)?
I love how people put their hearts into artwork, it really brings it to live while its flooded with emotion and later to pass it on for the others to enjoy
Your videos have inspired me beyond belief to continue my favorite hobby of drawing, and learning how to draw better. I just got my first cheap drawing tablet, and have begun learning how to draw on the computer. And it has been a lot of fun! I hope to learn more from your videos, and someday turn my hobby into a possible career (even though I have been told that artists starve, and all of the other wonderful snarky nonsense to try and crush my dreams). Thank you so much for these videos!
Best vid ever, So many people have a hard time this! All your vids are just the best but this one tops it because of how helpful it is and how much it has beem needed for so long but no one has covered it yet. Thank you :D
Mark, you’ve truly inspired me as an artist. I bought one of you how to draw manga books when I was nine. Now at sixteen, I’ve gone on a long art journey. And it’s all because of you. Now I animate, and want to animate Children’s TV shows. Thank you for all of your help.
I'm happy you did a video on this since the eyes along with hair are the hardest parts for me. Also, I just wanted to thank you for all of the videos that you do because without them I would have given up on drawing. Thank you for inspiring me!!
You sir are a true master of the pencil. I have given up on paper drawing because of this issue and upgraded (or downgraded in some sense) to digital drawing. I still have the eye issue but its 100 times easier when you can just copy paste and trace over. Your voice is also very soothing and with your subtle humor, you have earned a sub. I will be take a peek at your other videos and testing out your techniques. Thank you!
Mark, I think the issue is more (or more frequently) of trying to make both eyes in a 3/4 view, because they will not be mirror images of one another. Or at least that's the problem I usually face. If you want to use that as a suggestion for *next friday*'s video.................... I'd appreciate that. :P
I love to see people who have art styles that don't seem to fit them, as you do. I guess manga and anime are things that are looked at as a "young person" thing, like for someone under 30. It's great to see people like you who are breaking those rules with your manga-like style:) people often say I have quite an "older" way of drawing, as I am mostly interested in more realistic looking drawings as it's just my style. Thanks for breaking society's rules with meXD
Woah. This is the first of your videos I have watched in a little over a year now, and my god, I have no idea why I stopped watching. Your videos are so helpful. Happy to say I've re-subscribed.
Great vid! I hope you make a part two of this where the character being drawn isn't facing straight at you.. It's really hard for me when i draw someone looking from the side bc the eye thats further away looks weird and the eyes dont look like theyre looking at the same point.
I had a self-portrait thing I had to do for my advanced art class, I drew the first eye before winter break and just finished the second eye. This helped my "artist block", if that's what you want to call it, kind of fade. Thanks.
Eyes aren't perfect, so why do they need to be exactly the same? i mean i used to have this problem up until i just started to accept that not all pairs of eyes are perfect.
I think the drawing problem people have is not that the eyes end up being slightly different, but rather that they are drastically different. My video is designed to help them.
My problem is that one is closer to the nose than the other and then when I take a picture and flip it in MS Paint, it's stupidly obvious and frustrates me so bad I just want to erase the entire thing.
Drawing the other eye has been really hard because I always complete the first eye before starting on the next one. I didn't even think about doing them at the same time until you mentioned it, but this is so helpful!! Thanks mark 😁
I think the second eye is lower and less sharp then the first. Feels like she is melting, its creeping me out. I guess drawing it digital is better. you can just copy it and if you need to make it different you can use the copy at lower opacity as a guide line.
Hey Mark. I don't know if you'll see this, but I just wanted to put something out there for you. I've been watching your videos since I was around 9 or 10. I'm 16 now, and I must say, I have improved quite a bit, and I owe a lot of that to you. Watching your tutorials helped me draw animals a lot. And some other things as well. So thanks, and I can't wait to see where I end up in the art world in a few years. And I can't wait to see your improvement either. :)
(On a separate note, Mark, people love these videos because we love to see an artist in action. Less for a tutorial purpose, so make as many tutorials about drawing eyes as you want xD)
She's quite striking, but... Eye anatomy dictates that I point out one tiny flaw, Mark. The first eye's iris is not positioned perfectly in the center of the open eyelids. The way you drew it, it's turned ever-so-slightly to camera right. The "other" eye should have had the iris matching that positioning as well. As it stands right now, she looks a little cross-eyed. I noticed you made the "other" iris slightly lighter than the first. One can only assume that you did this to compensate for the direction of the ambient lighting. That little touch of lighter shade of grey helps deviate the viewer's eye just a scootch so as to not focus so ardently on her cross-eyedness. (To quote you, "Is that even a word?")
Just popped by to say I used to watch your videos a lot when I was muuuuch younger, and wanted to add that you really gave a lot that helped me learn and practice better to be the artist I am today. I'm so happy to still see you sharing videos, sharing your amazing knowledge with the world, I really admire that. Keep on keeping on! ;v;
Actually, metric system IS the ruler of the world. There are very few places where it is not used. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ab/Metric_system_adoption_map.svg/350px-Metric_system_adoption_map.svg.png
Which means it's not the ruler of the world, as there are places in the world where it's not used. Besides that, you have no concept of a pun style joke. Try growing a sense of humour.
That is a great way of learning how to draw the second eye. Thank you for posting this video, although there is an easier way of doing this as well. After drawing the first eye, you can either use tracing paper, or fold the paper in half and use your pencil to also trace or shade the drawing of the first eye so that it will be equal to it.
That was really Cool thank you for sharing all the Different tips and tricks to drawing. I'm a Self-taught Artist and getting to see the different things you do in terms of details Makes me think about things I wouldn't normally think about. I Got to see the Girl on the scooter that you had penned in, and I was able to see the Extra Lines in her jeans, and extra details you had put into her knuckles and just all the extra details I just wouldn't have thought of. So thank you very much, your videos are defiantly going to be a ton of help in the future. :)
This is a really tedious way of doing this. I would recommend lightly roughing out both eyes and even draw a 3rd rough eye circle in the center to get the distance right.
Hey man, I absolutely love your videos, they have helped to really focus on details and how to get the image in my head onto paper. Thanks for the help, and I look forward to your next vids!

Vanda Tran That's what I do lol 😂
Vanda Tran I do that WAY more than I should... *-aka every drawing I do-*
Vanda Tran my friend does that when we are drawing together (or at least she used to) when she tries to imitate my art. This is the conversation;
My friend: Gah!!! Ill just cover THAT eye with hair! *Looks over at my drawing* YOUR DONE?! And you drew *both eyes?!*
Me: ya.
My friend: TEACH ME!!!
Me:ok.
Then we have to go back to class (im in middles school XD) i guess im just that introvert who spends all their time drawing because they have nothing else going on in life.
I put bandage
🙋🙋🙋🙌🙌
Digital artist are like: EH JUST COPY AND PASTE IT..
Animixies's Channel traditional artists do it with mirrors. ;)
Animixies's Channel insult or nah? I can't tell.
Animixies's Channel Honestly....
lol I wish I could copy and paste (or alt+shift and drag) the second eye on a digital piece I'm working on but it's of Natsu Dragneel and a bit of his bangs cover one of his eyes, so I kinda can't just copy and paste.
Animixies's Channel and flip it
"How to draw the other ey-" *VIOLENTLY CLICKS ON VIDEO*

Kawaii Leonard
Glad I'm not the only one who struggles with it
Kawaii Leonard your name tho
Kawaii Leonard Not me, actually. I've always used this method of drawing it ever since I was a wee lass.
Kawaii Leonard I fucking love that profile did you draw it?
what about the third eye ?
Lerbyn DUN DUN DUN!

I can't tell you how times I've been bored and drew an eye then was like "I want to draw the other one" and couldn't.

When all else fails, give the person an eyepatch. LOL nice tutorial mark!

Or just make 'em wink.

You are actually the best art youtuber i've ever seen!
Thank you :)
Grunt 500 totally agree! even other artist with art video s tell people to watch your channel for quality lessons!
Grunt 500 Don't forget about Draw With Jazza
Grunt 500 pun intended?
Weeaboo Trashski I think mark is much better than Jazza
your manga series Miki falls was in my school library and I read it. it was good
Thank you!
markcrilley has such a nice voice. He's like the Bob Ross of manga.
Oh my god, it fits too well. I am gonna call him Manga Bob Ross from now on.
Rip bob Ross
What was it that he said?
Friendly tree?
I’d remember
If I had a brain XD
i think it was happy trees! may he rest in peace
Tbh he sounds just a bit like Kermit
I keep expecting him to say "M'ckay?"
Usually, I'd just put this into the computer and copy, flip, and paste the first eye to make the 2nd.
Mary Udomah I wish I could do that on paper
Maxneige Yes, he owns a Fender Stratocaster
true, but if you don't have a PC, this vid is your savior!
Mary Udomah Perfectly symetrical eyes look uncanny.
Mary Udomah ... you would still need to redo the iris for the highlight
I've waited 19 years for the day this video would come to be. Now to start drawing again!

Mister LC wuahaga i know its joke... but i did not quite get it care to explain sir??
Fai joure god bless your soul. A life time struggle for all artists is drawing the FREAKING SECOND EYE!!!!!
Amazing 😯 how you drew some lines and the result is a perfect hair. These eyes are so friendly.
Thank you!
_i love how everything he says lowkey sounds sarcastic_
Eye can't do a second I .-(
Problem Solved: Draw a long fringe over the other one or make it have an eyepatch yarrr.
AHHH WHY ARE HUMANS SO COMPLICATED TO DRAW, why couldn't we just be circles with hands ;(
Renji Abarai What about people who can't draw hands?
Renji Abarai when u said circle with hands i think of higgly town hero :v
Crazyness Nonetheless
*begins singing theme*
*realizes she forgot the words*
Renji Abarai they see me rolling XD you would be on a roll then XD
No legs?
Damn evolution is cruel.
This might sound strange but what I do is look at the first eye, measure the distance and draw the second eye by looking at the first simultaneously. I draw the second eye using my peripheral vision... yep... that's weird lol, but it works for me.
Daimo's Game Share me too! not wired at all!
I do that too!!
Daimo's Game Share its called EYEBALLING IT... ok, SORRY NOT SORRY
that's definitely how i do it too. stare at the first while drawing the second
You're all fucking aliens.
WHY HAVE I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS?!?!
I really love this eye as well.I like your eyes like this, and your hyper realism, well they just blow my mind!
Thank you Wade :)
Pro Tip: Just make characters that only have one eye.
Cyclopes?
Prince. Jr you could draw it with hair over it like me
I do that all the time
Quick Attack Films thanks..
Or an eyepatch like a pirate!
Or don't draw any eyes at all, who needs eyes either way/s
This is a horrible tip btw, you do need to learn to draw both eyes, this isnt a solution you are just basically throwing the problem under the carpet
Solution : eye patch , winking eye, cyclops , blind fold, hair over the other eye,
And my fave...
Doodle over the eye!
Example: draw a random dinosaur infront of it, or my fave a treeeeeeee!
Lol dont do that 😂😂😂
Lol this made my day
I usually cover it with hair or draw a winking eye
That works when you draw Jack Sparrow! xD BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
It's funny cause I always do these
Kaneki eyepatch
It saddens me that you never said "I'm eyeballing it" once in this video.
Ha! i was tempted actually :)
You can tell how much time goes into painstakingly shading a realistic-looking eye. They look lovely and well-matched. Great lesson!
I love the title. This video is a gift to us all. Thank you
This was so helpful
for the first time i ACTUALLY nailed the other eye. :)
Glad to hear it, Helen!
i dont have a ruler lol
Ouch that hurts! Don't nail any eyes!
Omg, I read the first 2 brody's ghosts and I loved them. I didn't realize you were the creator until the end of the video.
Thank you so much!

Aaron Wood - I don't think there's any way to change. If you started out copying from pictures and references, that's the way you are.

I had a self-portrait thing I had to do for my advanced art class, I drew the first eye before winter break and just finished the second eye. This helped my "artist block", if that's what you want to call it, kind of fade. Thanks.
Eyes aren't perfect, so why do they need to be exactly the same? i mean i used to have this problem up until i just started to accept that not all pairs of eyes are perfect.
I think the drawing problem people have is not that the eyes end up being slightly different, but rather that they are drastically different. My video is designed to help them.
Gray :2 YOI
My problem is that one is closer to the nose than the other and then when I take a picture and flip it in MS Paint, it's stupidly obvious and frustrates me so bad I just want to erase the entire thing.
Thank god im digital.
All hail the copy paste flip.
*copy, paste, flip, and edit slightly, because perfect symmetry looks weird
Skele Art omG iKr
Digital makes life so much easier 😭
This is one time Watercolors are godly. Paint eye (or full-half face) wet, fold, and Viola! Detail your physical copy-paste!
I do that on flipa clip and even have a tutorial!!
YES. I never knew this existed! This was on my recommendations! I needed this so much....
CELESTIC FORCE no
Drawing the other eye has been really hard because I always complete the first eye before starting on the next one. I didn't even think about doing them at the same time until you mentioned it, but this is so helpful!! Thanks mark 😁
I love how you end your videos, it's such a trademark way of ending things in Crilley style :D
I loved Brodys ghost is the best book EVER!
Thank you so much! ^_^
+markcrilley I REALLY MEAN IT ITS THE BEST EVER
Ahh.. Second eye... We meet again. BUT THIS TIME I HAVE THE UPPEER HAND. MUAHAHAHAHAHA. pun intended.
I think the second eye is lower and less sharp then the first. Feels like she is melting, its creeping me out.
I guess drawing it digital is better. you can just copy it and if you need to make it different you can use the copy at lower opacity as a guide line.
Creeping Lord Cthulhu himself? That's a feat!
Cthulhu ye but digital is expensive, I cant afford the tablet and a laptop or computer
digital is less impressive though. (and traditional art is also more valuable)
Cthulhu it would only work if the character looks straight onto you
Cthulhu well in real life there are some imperfections in the face
Hey Mark. I don't know if you'll see this, but I just wanted to put something out there for you. I've been watching your videos since I was around 9 or 10. I'm 16 now, and I must say, I have improved quite a bit, and I owe a lot of that to you. Watching your tutorials helped me draw animals a lot. And some other things as well. So thanks, and I can't wait to see where I end up in the art world in a few years. And I can't wait to see your improvement either. :)
(On a separate note, Mark, people love these videos because we love to see an artist in action. Less for a tutorial purpose, so make as many tutorials about drawing eyes as you want xD)
She's quite striking, but...
Eye anatomy dictates that I point out one tiny flaw, Mark. The first eye's iris is not positioned perfectly in the center of the open eyelids. The way you drew it, it's turned ever-so-slightly to camera right. The "other" eye should have had the iris matching that positioning as well. As it stands right now, she looks a little cross-eyed. I noticed you made the "other" iris slightly lighter than the first. One can only assume that you did this to compensate for the direction of the ambient lighting. That little touch of lighter shade of grey helps deviate the viewer's eye just a scootch so as to not focus so ardently on her cross-eyedness. (To quote you, "Is that even a word?")

SAN VAL I'm an artist, and it looks fine to me... I don't see anything wrong here 👍🏻

Duuude I watched your videos when you were starting out and you've improved a lot! Kudos, dude!
Just popped by to say I used to watch your videos a lot when I was muuuuch younger, and wanted to add that you really gave a lot that helped me learn and practice better to be the artist I am today. I'm so happy to still see you sharing videos, sharing your amazing knowledge with the world, I really admire that. Keep on keeping on! ;v;
inches are stupid centimeters ftw
Your elitist, pretentious metric system, will never be the ruler of the world.
Actually, metric system IS the ruler of the world. There are very few places where it is not used.

inches are bae, srsly they r a gift from heaven
Which means it's not the ruler of the world, as there are places in the world where it's not used.
Besides that, you have no concept of a pun style joke. Try growing a sense of humour.
Lerbyn Whatever helps you draw the "other" eye. Use cubits if that's what it takes.
👌
👌👌
MAARK !!!THIS IS SUCH A GOOD VIDEO IDEA BECAUSE I ALWAYS STRUGGLE WITH THIS!!!
Why I can't see emoticons in my youtube?
I love yoooou Mark ;_;... Make a new book I can buy TwT
That is a great way of learning how to draw the second eye. Thank you for posting this video, although there is an easier way of doing this as well. After drawing the first eye, you can either use tracing paper, or fold the paper in half and use your pencil to also trace or shade the drawing of the first eye so that it will be equal to it.
That was very helpful! Thank you! Your sense of humor is really refreshing too!
Ah, thank you for this. Now I can quit drawing bangs on everyone.
Oh my god i'm so stupid. After like 2 months I just realized I just bought your Mastering Manga 3 book
Thank you for supporting me!
True that book was circulating round my school for a long time
Eye found this very helpful! Thank you for sharing :)
Tramikins ur comment is like... not funny at all
Edit: sorry
I love your art tutorials so much. they've really helped me with my art.
That was really Cool thank you for sharing all the Different tips and tricks to drawing. I'm a Self-taught Artist and getting to see the different things you do in terms of details Makes me think about things I wouldn't normally think about. I Got to see the Girl on the scooter that you had penned in, and I was able to see the Extra Lines in her jeans, and extra details you had put into her knuckles and just all the extra details I just wouldn't have thought of. So thank you very much, your videos are defiantly going to be a ton of help in the future. :)

So how did it go?
I like how u draw your eye! ;)
This is a really tedious way of doing this. I would recommend lightly roughing out both eyes and even draw a 3rd rough eye circle in the center to get the distance right.
The approach I use in all my other videos on this topic :)
Hey man, I absolutely love your videos, they have helped to really focus on details and how to get the image in my head onto paper. Thanks for the help, and I look forward to your next vids!
You dont stop amazing me!!!! I love your videos and hope one day i can draw just as good or even better! Such an amazing job!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
