monolids, doublelids and hooded eyes

Description

I did this mainly for my personal reference, but thought it might also be interesting for other people.
of course there are still 1000 other ways to draw eyes, but this is how i like to make it easier for me.

A big part on how eyes seem is the areas that are in the shadow in my opinion.
what seems to e a difference for me between asian double lid eyes and caucasian doublelid eyes is the way the shadow above the eye works. with the caucasian doublelid it is mainly the crease that follows the round part of the eye and casts a bit of shadow, while with the asian monolid it is more like the round of the eye and the crease about the eye are seperate and the round part is the one casting the main shadow. this of course also depends on the light.
Another different seems the weight of the lines of the upper lid. the caucasian eye seem so have more weight on the middle and outer side of the eye, while the asian eyes seem to be narrow down a bit sharper to the inside corner of the eye.

the photos are some random pictures from google.
