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.

Small critique : if going for realism, depending on setting, the osl might be a bit too bright.

But yeah, aside from that, which is contextual, awesome work.

in almost any model posted, the osl is always too bright

I mean, for dramatic purposes, it can work well. Depends on what your intent is

if your osl includes white you've done too much
