Photorealistic Human Eye

belgoran

Not quite photo-realistic yet, but I'm actually pretty happy with it.

I've always found the eyes to be the hardest bit to nail down on a character, so I took today to isolate it and put this together. With proper morph targets / real animation, I think this'd hold up nicely.

Also, needs proper eyelashes .

Cool! That was mesmerizing to watch, yeah my only comment was gonna be on the lashes, but you're already on top of it. Neat stuff man!

Parth

Amazing!!

Ravanna

nice work. Slightly creepy, perhaps because its just about lying in the "uncanny valley" area of realism, and also its a floating eye

matsman

yeah... the eyeball feels a bit to round... to eyeballish... needs a bit more embedding into the socket with more "fluid" meshes I think... but perhaps it is just the shading.

but on first sight it is really very natural. Especially the movement helps with that.

Awsome!

Thanks folks . @matsman - I agree with you, still working on getting it just right, here's today's progress.

So freaky seeing it on its own. Really nice though

Nice job so far.

The upper eyelid should have distinct wrinkles leading to the orbit of the eye. Also, the lower lashes appear to be heading up towards the eye from the lower lid; it's a bit hard to tell with the blonde hairs, though.



I can't quite tell from the images you've posted whether the cornea bulges out from the round eyeball, nor whether the colored iris is on a more modest curve behind the clear cornea. (Granted, these details are only apparent in an extreme close-up. )

Whoa, thanks a ton for taking the time to pull that reference and give such constructive feedback - seriously!

I think I've addressed most of the issues - it's still far from perfect, but it's reached a level where I'm pleased with it as a test. I've got the animation in the renderfarm now, but here's a still of where it's ended up.

Again, thanks for the feedback!
