    I paint them yellow, give them a watered-down wash of Baal Red, and then paint a slit of Chaos Black.

    I paint them all red, to go with the mostly albino theme I have going.

    I made some of mine with a sunburst yellow and 3 small black dots like that one guy off the cartoon serie Naruto (don't remember his name) but it takes time to do it that way so I decided to do it on the braves only....

    I mentioned earlier how I do my Skink eyes, and here's a really old picture of the finished product. I think he's about the first Skink I ever painted, actually.
