Description: The original for this was hand-drawn, but didn't go through. I thought it was a good tecnique for beginner anime drawers to have, so I redid it on Gimp. It took me a while to get down a good, easy styke, but I showed a few of my friends how to do it, and they instantly caught on and are currently practicing more complicated anime eyes.
