Not quite sure what you mean, man. Do you mean the fur pattern
around the eyes, or the actual eye shape itself? It's important to
remember that the eye is a very wet organ, and it rests _behind_ the
lids of the eye, nestled in the socket. The eyes are the window into
the soul, so you want to pay them close attention.
I guess you could probably just pay attention to how the fur
pattern looks around the eyes, and try ti mimic it as best as
possible when redrawing the character in other poses or angles.
Onyx's eye/fur pattern has changed a bit since I first drew her, as
have the other siblings. Hope this answers your question, although
I'm not too sure if I got the question right.
