Been really trying to find proportions/face designs I've been digging. Mostly been bothered how my bland my eyes look, along with the cheek and jawline. Tried to do a semi-realistic anime style and I'm pretty happy with how the eyes turned out. Sure they don't show form but I think the shape design really sells it.
Of course they were not my "invention" however, I just looked around to see how other artists were expressing theirs and I took some ideas from them, specifically the eyeliner. Won't call them eyelids' because of how flat they look, but basically the line never fully connects near the tear duct, and the outside curve always goes up unless the expression or perspective dictates otherwise.
Also, if you haven't used Irfanview before, well you should. I setup a whole library manually on my E drive and sorted all my references out categorically. When Irfanview comes up I press T to bring up thumbnail view and boom, instant reference viewer that's super fast. The PureRef army may be big, but stand your ground and do not falter.
