In the thumbnail your eye looks red, so I instantly thought you were going for the vampire look. Great job on the makeup, this is really great!

The eyes are so fantastic in this. I've been struggling with maintaining color when I do shots. Mine always get dark. The way your eyes look are something I want to achieve before this month is over. This looks so cool!

I dig the makeup, lighting, and composition. Not quite as convinced with the tones in this one. Maybe b/w would be more dramatic - I dunno? Still a very cool image.

Transition from light to dark is very very good here. I love the white eyelashes.

Nice coloring on the eyes. The brown really stands out in this photo.

Might not have worked in the sense that you didn't get what you expected (like my stupid sunflowers thing), but it does work in terms of light and drama I think. There's a nice contrast between the eradicated areas, both highlights and shadows, that lends a lot to this photo. The tight frame or crop heightens the drama. Some texture addition or other kind of post work, like in your day one, might make this work well also.

inTENSE! Eyes are awesome. Having brown eyes myself, I always feel like they're hard to bring out in a photo. Mine are always too dark, but you nailed it here.

Nice comp and superb idea. Love the colour coming from your right eye. Almost makes it look like a different colour than the other one. I actually did this yesterday but it didn't turn out quite like this at all. I didn't use makeup. Well heck, here it is. I used powered sugar.
