Arik_the_Red:
Thanks, floyd!

Above image updated... and here's a link to the "instrumental" of the song...

CoriDavis:
this looks really interesting! I can't wait to see it. You do the eyes really well

Arik_the_Red:
Thanks, Cori... I had a long-ago desire to make eyeballs "captivating"... and as I thought about it, I realized that old-style baby-doll eyes have a certain look that catches your attention... So, I decided to make eyes that way. I've used the basic technique ever since. I have an inner eyeball that has an iris that is either flat or slightly concave, and a solid-black (0 on all settings) that is either flat or indented further into the eyeball. Then, sometimes I mess with the iris as shown above, having alternating indentings for that ridged look.

I also use separate colors for ambient and diffuse to get the texture's effect in the iris:
Ambient = yellow at .3
Diffuse = orange at 1.0
Specular = white at 1.0
Emissive = black at 1.0
Rough = 32
Brilliance = 1

CoriDavis:
Interesting, I'd try it but it seems like it would take a lot of polys, doesn't it?

Arik_the_Red:
yup... something like that. Though, if you look at the eyeball on my profile... I made a high-poly iris following that formula, then took a render of it and made a texture out of it, applying that to a simpler flattened faced sphere eye.
