painting eyes

[daz71]

does anyone have any tips on the best way to paint eyes i have been using a 0000 brush but there always seems to be a bit of resin that makes the eyeball distort and end up triangle shaped.

Sometimes I use a toothpick instead of a brush to get a bit better control.

thanks that is really helpful .the smallest brush i ever found was a 5/0.hope they sell 20/0 & 30/0 in the u.k.i'll definately try the toothpick though.

toothpick is my cheat, too. I will cut the tip to make a bigger dot if needed.
