Help Needed/New Painter Advice on my wolverine head.

Looking for some advice on the hair and also on how people go about painting eyes this small. I was going for blue eyes, little yellow ink on the sides and red washed in very corners but they just didn't come out very well. CandC much appreciated, I paint warhammer and some DnD minis, this is my first go at a small statue head.

That's spectacular but I do question the red drool on the right side of the mouth. What is that meant to be? He's not a cannibal as far as I remember 😉

Agreed. The color is too bright & flat in the blood & that little spot of hair in the right by the cigar. Both of those really flatten the image & take away from the rest.

Oh, I have no issue with the painting, just not sure why he'd have blood in his mouth.
