Found a couple of tutorials on painting eyes.

Just a generic one on painting flesh.

Hope you find some of that useful.

Well I now have a new way of doing it and it works very well. I use a reapoer pro series paint called ivory. I paint the fave with that then I take the new GW wash Orgren Flesh and wash the face. Im telling you it makes it look sweet! Then I high light the raised areas with the ivory again and it looks sweet!

Think of the scale of the mini, and the distance that it was intended to be viewed at,
As Bootleg mentioned at a gaming distance and a scale of 1/60th (for augments sake)
Realistically you wouldn’t see that detail any way even if you went through the trouble of doing it. Have a buddy stand 40 ft away from you; can you see the pupils of his/her eyes? It’s more realistic to have the brow cast a shadow over the eyes than actually taking the time to paint the pupils.
