I unspun some navy, purple, and light blue and used the the singles held with the working yarn to get this effect, light to dark as I worked own.
I got a close up of the eyes I painted, they where clear cat eyes 7mm and now they are lavender dragon eyes. I wish I had been able to get 8mm eyes but they didnt have them in that size still I think in person these look realy stunning.
I need to take a day and paint up 20+ set's of eyes as my stock of hand painted is slowly being used up.
I plan on adding a little surprise element to this guy but not sure how it will look so I have to play with placement of it.

He's looking good already - can't wait to see him finished though! :)
